Weird iBook problem

My iBook suddenly seems to be unable to detect my network hard drive. Which is odd because it had no trouble with it a couple of days ago, and I haven't changed any settings on anything. About the only thing that happened recently is that the battery went flat yesterday and the computer shut down. But I can connect to the internet and print, so it seems to know that the network is still there. However, even if I disconnect temporarily the network name still shows in finder.

The drive is still there and still working - I can access it from my PC in Windows and Linux.

What I think I need to do is redo the network settings on the ibook - not just Wifi, but the network name etc.. Any suggestions on how?

Later - Just tried running Netinfo Manager, it says trusted_networks [no value]
Does that mean anything?

Apologies.

Apologies to anyone who expected to see me at tonight's party - still feeling fairly crap, I've decided to give it a miss.

More website problems

Something weird has happened to my ntlworld website, which you may have bookmarked as www.forgottenfutures.co.uk - it's still there, but I can't access it via FTP to make changes. It appears that this is a legacy site that isn't very well supported any more (as in I had endless problems when I spoke to technical support about it) and it may not be possible to solve the problem.

Since NTLworld are owned by Virgin it turns out that I can have a bigger Virgin site as part of my account. As a temporary measure I'm setting up this account now - it's simply a backup of the ntlworld webpage, but has the advantage that I will at least be able to update it, and I think it may load a bit faster and with fewer problems

For now forgottenfutures.co.uk points to the old ntlworld site - In the long term I may move it to the hosting site I use for my other sites, which has VERY good technical support, and will avoid problems if I eventually change my ISP.

Please note that I will NOT be reading mail sent to the Virgin account associated with this web site, it will bounce automatically.
