Unfortunately, I can not get through using the GUI, or rather I have once, but
can not now. We referenced our images for the GUI (customised) using http to a
site which is on the same IP address. So the site settings never comes in
because it is constantly trying to get theimages and cant (I know this is
something that I will have to get sorted out so they are relative in the
future).

I did however, manage to get into one of the Virt sites that is used for the
images and changed the IP in the GUI, and then did the DNS for the new IP, but
it is taking ages to come through.

Any suggestions to speed up the DNS alterations so they appear alot sooner.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Ian
