Whelp there are quite a few ways to splain that - redirect the page to an
existing site, hell you can even go as far as changing the pointer to go
to another machine far or even swapping the servers entirely but it
was prolly just redirected - regardless - you're right it could have been
a misconfig - but I would have assumed the consulate might have picked up
on that sometime since may and the redirection - if that's what happened -
don't you?

Regardless - the definite truth here is that this thread is old and I'm
just adding to the noise - sorry kids...

Considering that the Last-Modified time on the Tongan consulate page is
May 20, 1998, I'd bet that it was a server configuration error that has
been corrected in the last 24 hours.  The images on that page don't look
like they were thrown together in response to your allegations, IMO.

It has already been stated that the sfconsulate.gov.to is located at
Best's server colocation facilities, which means it's probably on the
same box as many other web servers.  Such servers often have config
problems, and that was probably brought to the attention of the folks at
Best.

I smell no fish.
