Title: tekforums.co.uk and DNS
Post by: maximusotter on March 28, 2006, 16:51:22 PM
Its never worked for me with the new forums, I either go to:
http://www.tekforums.co.uk/recentTopics/list.page
or
http://www.tekforums.co.uk/forums/list.page

as tekforums.co.uk times out or I get a "this page does not exist" dialog from FF.

No biggie for me, but if we want to recapture the old audience, getting the DNS cleared up might be a good idea.

Another thing of note: searching for tekforums on google brings up no instances of the new forums. :/

Cheers thou ! Whoop!

I dont use apache. And I had to change the way I configured my sites because I dont use non www. usually.
