Please help test new provider

Post by **Darth Wong** » 2003-02-17 01:12pm

Moot point now; I just nuked the test board. I'd say it's passed the test (as well as some other system-level tests I was running), so I'll be moving this board to that provider in the near future. I'll try to do it early in the morning; if you see this board giving you a "disabled" message, it will be down for around 2-3 hours.

OK, the switch has been made. We are now on the new provider. If there are any problems, I'm sure people will let me know

The URL is still bbs2.stardestroyer.net, and the old URL redirects to this one for the time being. I have already changed the DNS addresses so that this one will eventually become bbs.stardestroyer.net, but there's an unfortunate delay in the propagation of these new addresses (at least a few days).

the old one gives me an "invalid session" if i try to post. i guess the redirection doesnt work.

OK, I panicked for a bit there but it turns out it just took a few hours for the redirected subdomain to start working smoothly.

It won't mark anything read...

On bbs2., it won't mark threads read for me, but it does on bbs.

Yes, that was the problem for me, but apparently, it no longer matters.

Eh. I killed my cache and cookies and restarted the browser, but now the bbs2 address no longer works, so never mind.

So, uh...what just happened?

Oh well, since we're all still here, I'll asume everything is okay.
