Network

I’ve tried just about everything.

it all returns errors, mainly "The DNS server refused to transfer the zone challenge01.root-me.org to your computer".

What else is there to do/try. Any other hints, or guidance to where I am going wrong? I have tried just about every link on google to make sure I am doing it right, yet still not able to succeed.

Go with ping and test if it is reachable. If it is reachable most probably that everything is ok. From my side it is ok at least! Keep trying ...

j0anna@joanna: $ ping challenge01.root-me.org

Well, been a while since I have been on this site to do some challenges. But, this problem is working.
