    friend can't access any sites on my server from work

    he has tried to access many of my sites from his work connection
    and nothing loads, they just time out.
    it has been this way for weeks.
    none of his coworkers can access the site either
    he doesn't think it's the corp. firewall, because the firewall pops up a warning page for blocked sites.
    any ideas on what is causing this?

    edit:
    he emailed me the error message he gets:
    ERROR
    The requested URL could not be retrieved

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    While trying to retrieve the URL: http://nathanlyke.com/

    The following error was encountered:

    Connection Failed
    The system returned:

    (60) Operation timed out
    The remote host or network may be down. Please try the request again.

    63.95.176.139

    Can they access other websites? I am assuming they can.

    Have them put the www after the http:// part and see if that does anything

    Also try see if they can connect with up http://ip_address/~name

      yes, they can access other sites
      the www. doesn't make a difference
      he can't access it by ip address either
      the only thing i can think of is that dathorn is blocking his work IP for some reason

      edit. it seems to be just cpanel 33, he can get to websites on other dathorn servers

        Please have him go to www.whatip.com to obtain his IP address and give it to you. Then submit a trouble ticket with this information and I will look into it further, the IP is likely just blocked.
