I knew something like this would happen. We should never have left Delphi.

Oh Noes!

 

Will it work as long as we take note of the IP addresses and type those into our browser instead of the URL?

I don't know. It only works at the moment because I set up the hosting so that the default site is tehforum.co.uk. I have no idea how this change will affect that side of things so you can try it and see if it works.

just whack the entries in your hosts file while the switchover propagates through. Should work fine

www.tehforum.org is already pointed to the new IP address and seems to be working just fine.

Hell of a thing! I just tried again and got right in after clicking the Bee logo in the middle of the blue background screen.

I'm with Chris, that dosn't work for me either

if you've just done it, maybe the DNS hasn't propogated fully yet but might by the weekend ?

Well it's working for me today, as it is others it seems. Pretty damn swift change over, I pinged www.tehforum.co.uk and it does indeed point to the new IPs.

Name servers were switched at 10:30 - so only two hours for your DNS to update; not bad!

(Mine is still stuck :( )

Mine isn't working at the moment either :(

That was with UKOnline (Easynet) but now I'm back in Sheffield with BeThere and it hasn't updated here. Obviously using the direct IP.

No problems here (Londonweb - at work), although I only tried after 1pm.

No problems whatsoever for me. I just used my standard bookmark which points to http://www.tehforum.co.uk/forum/ and it's worked all day.

Odd, there shouldn't be any difference - they'd both be on the same pair of nameservers.
Sure you haven't got something setup in your Hosts file?

(neither works for me)
