Bb Users,
Some people were still having problems after my message that Blackboard was back up. This issues should be resolved for everyone in the next 24-48 hours, but if you still see a message that Blackboard is down, here is a fix that should work:
I think we have a temporary fix that will work until everything is updated.
You will have to type a command into the MS DOS command line.
1. Go to the Start Menu.
2. Choose Run.
3. Type "cmd" and click OK.
4. Type this in the MS Dos window that appears: "ipconfig /flushdns"
5. You should get a message that says: "Successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache."
6. Try to access Blackboard again: www.miami.edu/blackboard
I apologize for the inconvenience, and I will be in the office tomorrow to deal with any problems.
-Jennifer
