Argh!! Where did The Kennel go?

[Mr Invisible]

For those wondering why "the site went down today", it technically didn't, it relocated.

I was in contact with Nash (who looks after this side of things), and the reason we were down, is good news.

The site has now ventured over the pacific and is located in Singapore.

During this time, some ISPs nameservers have been slack as hell to notice and react to the change, but within 24hrs it should all resolve.

Google and some ISPs have changed already, and by ame day we should all be good again.

Please report any noticed issues/speed concerns/timeouts to moderators to pass onto admins, though hopefully none will be required/noticed.

Cheers

It would have been offline during the transition (probably earlier this morning).

Some ISPs though (like the one you are on), have propogated to the new server much faster.

Telstra (typical Bigpond) is still dragging the chain so I've had to use Googles nameservers in the interim.

I was wondering why I couldn't login thought it was my internet

Server upgrade and relocation. Should be faster now. - habs.

 

[Mr Invisible]

As a heads up, Telstra (via its own DNS Server) is now resolving correctly.

Server certainly feels nice and responsive/brisk.

Greetings from Kenya - it sure was down and it sure is quicker. Thanks

Thought that was the case after doing a WHOIS yesterday on thekennel.net.au and seeing it was using a server located in Singapore.

No surprise Telstra DNS servers took the bloody longest to switch over. lol

Can definitely tell there's a big difference in speed on The Kennel now. Great job guys.

I was having withdrawal symptoms and was delighted to be able to log on and view this morning. Now off to Sydney today in preparation for the Drag queens game tomorrow.
