NETSCAPE US-ONLY SOFTWARE BAD DOMAIN ERROR


General

We could not verify your domain as not known to be foreign, or your domain could not be resolved by reverse DNS.

You cannot download this software unless your network connection does reverse DNS, and your domain is not known to be foreign. You may need to contact your system administrator.

Detail

This error can come about one of two ways:
  1. Problem: No DNS Name Resolution

    How You Can Tell: If the DNS NAME line on the error page you received is numeric, this is your problem, because your DNS name could not be resolved from your IP address.

    What You Can Do: If this is the case, you cannot download the software. You can contact your system administrator to find out why your DNS name cannot be resoved. Trying again and again won't help.

  2. Problem: Unsupported Domain

    How You Can Tell: If the DNS NAME in the error page is made of letters, not numbers, this is your problem.

    What You Can Do:
    Not much. For the time being, our software is rejecting your domain. Your sysadmin may be able to explain things, but you're probably not going to be able to use this download mechanism from your current site.
