An incorrect dns zone file for lagniappeinternet.com itself got pushed out by mistake. We’ve restored the file within minutes, but the dns cache time may cause issues with reaching the hosts by lagniappeinternet.com based hostnames. This is only affecting the lagniappeinternet.com domain – customer domains should not be affected. Servers themselves are not affected – only the name resolution for lagniappeinternet.com hostnames
The Installatron module for the DirectAdmin reseller server has been migrated to the new server as well. If you experience and issues with Installatron, or other aspects of the new server, please let us know.
All accounts have been migrated! You should now login with the new server address not the old.
If you are using external nameservers, you MUST update them for the new ip address sent to you in email. Your sites WILL NOT WORK otherwise.
Installatron will be added to the new server shortly.
Work has begun to migrate the DirectAdmin resellers server, gt20-1, to a virtualized environment with an anonymous hostname name. Customers will be emailed the hostname separately. The new v-server will brought up first, and DirectAdmin installed on it (this work has begun). Afterwards we will begin migrating accounts one by one to the new server. This does mean new your ip address will change. But as we migrate accounts we will be giving each account a private ip address just for them to compensate.
There will be a time that some accounts can access the Installatron feature. At first it will be accounts that have moved to the new server. But after we migrate Installatron’s license to the new ip addresses, it will be the accounts still on the old server… We will be happy to install any of those scripts for you or you customers. Just simply put in a ticket with the account details, and the script you would like installed.
We are currently lowering the TTL on all the dns entries, so that any caching of incorrect ip addresses will be minimal… We’ll reset it after the migration. During the individual migrations the existing server will show a message that the account is being migrated to the new server.
We have decided to virtualize all outward facing servers for the same reasons companies all over the world are doing so: administration benefits as well as better resource management. This will help us improve service, as well as keep out prices low.
Just a quick update on some lagniappe we’ve arranged… With their help, we have arranged for our U.S. customers to receive Ping! magazine free of charge. Ping!, http://www.pingzine.com, is now celebrating their 7th year as the premier magazine for the webhosting industry. We are very proud to be partnering with Duncan Publishing Group to bring you this magazine and hope you will enjoy reading it as much as we do.
New customers will also be getting subscriptions after 1 month of service! If you’re not already a customer, check out http://www.LagniappeInternet.com/ to sign up, and get some lagniappe. Offer valid for U.S. customers only.
Sincerely,
Rob
Just a quick announcement about a new feature! We’ve been looking on how to give a little something to our customers and we’re working on something major (but can’t talk about that yet)… So we’ve added RVSiteBuilder Pro to the server. All cPanel Resellers may use this immediately. RVSiteBuilder Pro includes over 600 templates with WYSISWG editor, as well as Blog, FAQ, and Newsletter components. We hope you enjoy it, and find it useful in marketing your webhosting services.
As always, we thank you for your continued support. We hope you are pleased with our service and if so tell others. If not, please let us know how we can improve.
Actually it officially happened last month, but we took our time and ramped up services over time originally, so we’re going to make August the celebrated birthday month. The past year of our returning to the world of webhosting has been quite a ride, and we’re enjoying every minute of it. We’re very happy to be part of this exciting community once again.
In celebration, we’re lowering prices!
For VPS accounts:
Basic VPS was $29.95, now $26.95!
Advanced VPS was $44.95, now $39.95!
Premium VPS was $64.95, now $54.95!
Both cPanel and DirectAdmin Reseller accounts are being reduced too!
Basic Reseller was $14.95, now $11.95!
Advanced Reseller was $24.95, now $19.95!
