... please move it as appropriate.

OK, I usually access this forum by typing jriver.com into the browser, and then following the links to get to interact.

But this evening, when I enter jriver.com into my browser, I see...

The following error was encountered while trying to retrieve the URL: http://jriver.com/

    Connection to 216.14.187.161 failed.

The system returned: (61) Connection refused

The remote host or network may be down. Please try the request again.

So, then i tried www.jriver.com, and, well, here I am.

More info ...

% telnet jriver.com 80
Trying 216.14.187.161...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

% telnet www.jriver.com 80
Trying 216.14.187.173...
Connected to www.jriver.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.

jriver.com had always worked for me, now it seems to have issues.

What changed?

The servers moved over night, it should hopefully all settle soon.

Your old DNS record had a TTL of 6 or 7 days, so access may be disrupted for some users for up to a week depending on which DNS server they use and how old their DNS cache is :/
You may want to add a temporary 'newyabb.jriver.com' and use it on the main jriver page link until this settles. A new SSL certificate may be needed for that.
Alternatively, set up 216.14.187.174 as a transparently router/forwarder to 216.14.187.173.

Access works for me with 8.8.8.8 as the DNS server, but not with my ISP's DNS.

    QUESTIONS:
        yabb.jriver.com, type = ANY, class = IN
    ANSWERS:
    ->  yabb.jriver.com
        internet address = 216.14.187.174
        ttl = 534366 (6 days 4 hours 26 mins 6 secs)

New server has 6 hours TTL, more sensible.
