The server will be relocating tomorrow afternoon

Post by Lyion »

Just a heads up, I'll lock the forums tomorrow and move us then. We'll be on a different name to start, but eventually will get namelesstavern.org back.

I'll post that tomorrow AM, when the server is up. Gidan is doing the migration, and I'm not sure if the new instance is ready for traffic.

P4 2.8
1G ram
100mbit uplink
Redhat - RHEL3

I am just about done getting everything done. Their will be a small rollback on the server, probably to about 2 hours ago. That was the bast backup I used and its been updated enough that I really dont want to go through all that again. Their are some annoying little ?'s around but people can deal with them until I find a good way to remove them without losing data.

Their will be a new domain name, I will update that when I am ready for traffic. namelesstavern.org will auto forward to my server for now until the server we are on now goes away. If that that point we have not been able to get admin access to the domain the domain will change for good. Dont worry, it wont be hard to remember.

(this is vonk)

What's wrong with transferring the domain name? It should be totally doable. Lyion or Gidan, email me if you are running into problems. Lyion should have full access to change all of that. Not sure why you can't keep the domain name... I'm not being a dick or anything... plus, it's paid up for a while, so... shrug... why not use it?

Vonk, its not readily apparent how to do this from the Admin screen. Both Gidan and I have combed it.

Splain it to us, or give me a call if you prefer.

The admin screen on PHPBB?

You don't change a domain pointer through phpbb...

Sorry Vonk, we didn't want to give the impression you were hindering us in any way. We just were unable to locate exactly where to change the domain. Ideally I would like to have it transfered to my godaddy account which would make changes easier for me.

Host the DNS through afraid.org

Instant updates ftw.
