Domains

I managed to register both shadowscope.net and shadowscope.us; Both should forward here (along with richiemiles.com, which I have owned for several years. the subdomains which redirect to my BBS that’s hosted here, should also forward correctly. You can now access the board through:

bbs.shadowscope.com, bbs.shadowscope.net, bbs.shadowscope.us and shadowscope.noip.us

I have also upgraded my weather station and will be putting it back online soon. With the move to the new town it’s been down for a couple of months. I will be back online at villaricaweather.com and villaricaweather.us once it’s up. Full weather report, forecasts, and a couple of webcams.

Should be transparent but I am moving my last two domains (the original shadowscope.com and another one) over to Google Domains from register.com; It’s cheaper and it’s a hell of a lot easier to manage domains through Google than it is register.com

DNS Issues fixed

Apparently my web provider decided to restore something from backup and when they did it messed up my domain forwarding that I set up in the zone editor. When I asked them to restore all they did was add a 301 forwarding rule, which pretty much does nothing unless you are accessing stuff with a web browser.

Between the move and holidays and work I haven’t had the time to fix. Since it had been so long since I added the CNAME in my zone editor I forgot how to do it lol. Looked that up (Thanks Google) and fixed it late this past week. You should now be able to access the BBS however you were doing it before.

Regardless, should the forwarding go down you can always access it at shadowscope.noip.us which is where bbs.shadowscope.com is forwarded to.
