DNS Routing/Proxy Cache screw up?

[guest2013-1]

I have a site hosted in Germany by Hetzner. The godaddy.com registrar is seperately owned by the company.

We've update their site (pure HTML) and when you click around the godaddy.com parked page sometimes displays.

My server in the US and an account through IS tested fine and it looks like it should, but going through a SAIX account it goes through to their parked page thing.

I have a suspicion someone messed around with DNS settings and that the DNS servers at SA's side (or the cache proxy) somewhere down the line screwed up

Anyone else have the same problems?

regularly - its SAIXs transparent cache.

I expect you've put in the usual no-cache things by now?

Could you tell me how please?

For plain html I usually try to ensure the following is included on each page

<meta http-equiv="pragma" content="no-cache">
<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="Tue,01 Dec 1990 06:30:00 GMT">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

Make sure all your links point to the default page rather than simply the site address. ie www.site.com/index.htm rather than just www.site.com

If you want to force a reload put a '?' at the end - ie www.site.com/index.htm?

EDIT - all those will help prevent future caching issues - you might have to email telkom and ask them to clear the cache for your site.

What happens if my site is somehow transported to 30 November 1990?

Then you might get a cached version of it
