New FilkNet UK server up
Apr. 12th, 2011 09:43 pmIt gives me considerable pleasure to announce that the new UK FilkNet server is finally up and fully configured.
This means that FilkNet IRC is now back on a resilient network with two servers, soon to become three thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
gundo. Oh, and ChanServ and NickServ are back.
Details on the new server are at http://www.filknet.org/hosting.html - basically, we've replaced the old UK server with a new and much better behaved (and lower power server). You should now be able to get to #filkhaven either via irc.uk.filknet.org (the UK server) or irc.us.filknet.org (guess!).
Coming soon:
- new FilkNet web pages (the old ones are getting a bit long in the tooth)
- the FilkNet mailing lists will be moved from the EVEN OLDER server to the new one (this should be a transparent change).
- geo-balanced DNS so you can go to irc.filknet.org and it'll take you to the nearest server that's up.
As previously, we're happy to accept donations towards the costs of FilkNet - no obligation, of course: FilkNet is for the community, and we'd do it anyway.
