    GunsNet Servers will be MOVING + READ ONLY MODE around April 27-30th

    ** UPDATED April 22, 2015 **

    I bought a house a little further north and will need to take the servers up with me, so a few things will happen that will give you guys a time to go outside and fire off a few rounds at the range.

    April 27th.... I will do the following:

    1. Take GunsNet.net and AK-47.net *OFFLINE* for complete cold backups.
    2. Wire the new place with CAT5e.
    3. Relocate both servers to the new place, power it up and the existing IP's should transfer and theoretically "should just work".
    4. Once step #3 is done, I will have GN running at the new location.

    My "window" with Time Warner is all day. I still need to wire the place so expect GN to be down until I have the place cabled/set up.

    Makes sense.

    Thanks for taking such good care of this site. Best of luck with the move.

    You might make a headline post when the site is in read only mode. Make it in big letters so that even those who don't read can see it.

    Good luck with your move.

    And good luck with our move too! Sounds like sort of a tricky endeavor.

    I feel like a road trip anyway.
    While no one ever listens to me,
    I am constantly being told to be quiet.

    So glad you're thinking of me...
    We found out what "dealing" with progressive lefties is all about. Our side gives up something, they give up nothing and the progressives come back in a month or a year and want us to give up more... rinse and repeat...
