Hello All,
In order to check the connectivity of the domain with web/mail server these three reports are very useful to diagnose the problem. One can perform below mentioned defined steps to generate the report/s.
For Ping Report (Windows 98, XP, NT, 2003 server):
- Click Start > Run.
- In the Run dialog box type “command” (without quotes) and press ok.
- DOS Command Prompt Window will open.
- At the DOS Prompt type “Ping yourdomainname” (without quotes)
- E.g. Ping accuwebhosting.com
For Tracert Report (Windows 98, XP, NT, 2003 server):
- Click Start > Run.
- In the Run dialog box type “command” (without quotes) and press ok.
- DOS Command Prompt Window will open.
- At the DOS Prompt type “Tracert Yourdomainname -d” (without quotes)
- E.g. Tracert accuwebhosting.com –d
For Telnet Report (Windows 98, XP, NT, 2003 server): [To Check Mail server Connectivity]
- Click Start > Run.
- In the Run dialog box type “command” (without quotes) and press ok.
- DOS Command Prompt Window will open.
- At the DOS Prompt type “Telnet mail.Yourdomainname 25” (without quotes)
- E.g. Telnet mail.accuwebhosting.com 25
- E.g. Telnet mail.accuwebhosting.com 587
Note: 25 and 587 both are SMTP server ports. One can check the mail server connectivity via both these ports.
