Server type Offline Hostname

Hi,

The server type for one of my hostnames used for CCTV keeps changing to "Offline Hostname" and is not reachable. The IP address is correct and I can get to the CCTV with the IP in the record but when using the hostname the browser page states offline.

Any Ideas?

    I'm having the same issue, changing back to Host with IP address will correct only for a few days.

    I have the same problem on a connection I set up for one of my customers. The router (ISP is Sky) is set up to update the DNS on change of IP. It works for a time, then stops. When I look at the 'My Hosts' list, it shows 'Not In DNS' and the service type changes to 'offline hostname'. I change it back to Host with IP address but after a time it fails again.

    I've contacted support regarding the issue and they just fobbed me saying to change the account password or create a new host and that their system couldn't change it to offline hostname on its own.
