Why is my IP redirecting to a domain?

Posted on October 20, 2016

I used to have the domain cirrostratusco.com, hosted at Rackspace.

My new IP at Digital Ocean, 104.131.153.79, is redirecting to cirrostratusco.com even though that’s not an entry in my Nginx setup, my domain list or even a domain I own.

I’ve grepped over the entire machine for references to cirrostratuso.com, and the only references I can find are in the logs of failed access to cirrostratusco.com
