    Host names

    The automated messages I get from the new boards use herogames. com in their URLs, while to board actually uses
    herogame.dans.cust.servlets.net. CLicking links is, ergo, non-functional. I figure Ben is working on this, but I thought I'd mention it.

    Yeah, they're just waiting for the new DNS to propagate. Which can take an annoyingly long time...

    The DNS change has gone through. At least on my side.

    What this means is that all the pieces are in place, it's just up to everyone's individual DNS to update before you'll be accessing the new site through the proper URI (herogames.com). You'll know you're on the right site when you go to http://www.herogames.com and have a login button on the left-hand nav-bar

    Cool, seems to have propagated to my ISPs servers as well...

    Doesn't seem to have gone through to my ISP yet (nor the server at work either). It will be interesting to see how long it takes.

    :: checking site :: No login button yet. Doing mouseovers on the navbar links gives me a mix of "herogames.com" and "herogame.dans.cust.servlets.net" . I assume once the DNS goes through all those will be "herogames.com" as well?

    I had the nav bar on Tuesday night, but now it is gone. My ISP (speakeasy.net) does weird stuff like this.

    Mike - I'm with speakeasy as well (GREAT service!) and have been seeing the same thing....it keeps bouncing between the old server and the new.

    Sigh.

    VeriSign Smackdown

    Okay, VeriSign has 4 hours to make everything right and then I'm gonna rain hellfire down upon them. Grrrrrr.

    Why is it so difficult for these companies to do things that they've been doing for years? When you call them they act like you have no idea what you're talking about.

    Grrrrrr.

    DANGER! DANGER BEN SEEMAN! VERISIGN! DANGER!

    Seriously, VeriSign/Network Solutions is ass. Premium prices for sub-standard service. I trasnferred a bunch of domains I own over to GoDaddy.com in the past year or so and have had no hassles. They're also about $15-$20 cheaper.

    It should not complain, no one else is willing to run DSL or cable modem half way up a mountiain.

    It used to take a max of 48 hours.
    Now... at work I am on our Network (so I have no idea what's up with that)
    At home I'm on AT&T Cable and it still doesn't resolve.

    Well I've just had our a second "Escalation Ticket" submitted to the VeriSign technical staff...

    Why am I not hopeful? :|

    Because NetSol is now in the clutches of the technically inept Verisign, who is now run by Sales people who are as technical as a Thimble.

    FYI, it still hasn't propagated out here (to the east coast). I don't know if that's Network Solutions, or I just need to wait longer -- just figured I'd let you know in case the information was in some way helpful.
