Foundation 3D Server moved 12/17/07

Hi All,

We had to move the server to its permanent location today. Again, we apologize for the interruption. However, this eliminated a couple of hops and should make things load quicker as well as improve reliability.

That’s the last of the planned service interruptions so I think we can all look forward to smooth sailing from here on.

I’m sure everyone has noticed the DNS glitches. Professionalism doesn’t allow me to vent but only to say that we’re working though the challenges.

It should be over but if it gets a little dicey we are working diligently to resolve the technical issues.

We resolved email send issues from the new server so everyone should be receiving email notifications from the forums again.

For those of you with hosted accounts, we are now migrating your domains and email accounts across. Hopefully, that will all be done by days end.

The last two days have been hit and miss trying to get the domain registrar to fix namerserver entries on their end. The domain manager was broke and I had to practically threaten an act of God to get them to admit they had a problem.

WIthin the last hour I have been able to verify both from my end and from Webpipes end that the resgistrar has completely resolved all namerserver/DNS issues at their end.

What does thi mean to you? Over the next 24 hours all DNS servers in the gloabal DNS chain should be completely up to date with the correct entries and from what i can see from here the site is lightening fast.

I would appologize but this time it's really the registrar who should be appologizing. One more item down and about 25 to go.
