Helping Agaric debug site availability or network issues for a site

Description & Info: 

Debugging site availability issues to a MS Windows computer.

Click on Start, Run, and then type cmd and enter.

On the command prompt opened:

  • type ping www.example.com (press enter)
  • type tracert www.example.com (press enter)
  • type telnet www.example.com 80 (press enter)

For all three, you can copy the output and e-mail it.

On GNU-Linux, Unix, and Mac OS X you can just go to a terminal program and type those commands (use ping -o on Mac OS X at least to keep it from repeating the ping endlessly until you ctrl-shift-C it).
