CHANGING SERVERS SOON...

Post by p51 » Thu Mar 01, 2007 10:56 am

Hey guys,
Well, the old hosting company I used for this forum and my http://www.warbird-photos.com site has said we're using too much bandwidth, in excess of 50 gigs a day! So, I'm going to be moving everything next month over to dreamhost, which gives me 200 gigs of space and 2 terabytes of bandwidth, well more than enough :-) My other main site, http://www.disneycastmagic.com , is on dreamhost and that has been a very reliable hosting source. I'll keep you all updated. What I probably will do is get the site set up on the new server and wait till the last minute to close these boards, copy over the database and restore the forum over there, then change the domain to the point to the new server. It should be a seamless transition with only minimal downtime for these boards. I'll keep you all updated as we get closed to move time.

Thanks for the heads up.
Tanks for the memories
Your breachblocks so black
And oodles of track
Here at Grafenwoehr it's so good to be back
Oh, tanks for the memories..

Britt--thanks for the advance notice and thanks for keeping this place running along smoothly! Your recent upgrades were a big help, and this move will help guarantee that our happy little community has a safe home for a long time to come.

Regards,
