In the main page it says :


2007-08-18 16:49:07 - DNS problems (by Bonzo)
We have some DNS problems that may last, at most, a few days. See here or here for more details and a temporary fix.

I apologise for the trouble.

EDIT: the resolved address for btmusic.org is 193.189.73.82, so if you put it in your browser you will access the site

edit your hosts file for a temp fix ..

There may be some temporary DNS problems which may make it difficult to access the site for, at worst, a few days.

As an emergency measure, you can add or update a "hosts" file in your computer to ensure continued access. This simple text file is usually called HOSTS (no file extension) and may be opened in Notepad.

For users of Windows, this is placed inside the folder C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\ or C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc\ . Users of other Operating Systems should check Wikipedia .

Add the following lines of text to override normal DNS lookups for btmusic sites:

193.189.73.84 irc.btmusic.org
193.189.73.83 forum.btmusic.org
193.189.73.82 btmusic.org

Changes take effect immediately without rebooting. This should be regarded as a temporary fix to be removed when no longer needed.
