- jraph 7y agoBy the way, should this host not work on your domestic connection, I do not advise you to switch away from your ISP DNS, nor, alternatively, to put the following line: 186.2.163.171 sci-hub.se in your hosts file. Or 186.2.163.90 sci-hub.tw for that matter.
- papln 7y agoIs it important to match the IP address to the domain name? I assume that all the hosted sites are mirrors of each other.
- jraph 7y agoI just tried, and yes, it is important to match the correct host with the ip address. The server uses the Host HTTP header to find the right virtual host and send the right SSL certificate. A wrong match seems to break the site. But your assumption is right, I believe all these hosts are otherwise identical mirrors of Sci-Hub.
