UPDATE: New Board/Server - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*DoNotPMMe2* · 05-25-2002, 05:38 AM

I found a really good deal on a server which allowed me to go ahead and upgrade even though I haven't recieved all the $$$ you guys donated from my bank yet... I just finished getting it basicaly setup and will start transfering everythign over (including getting the new board fully functional) within the next few days.

I'm sure some of ya'll are wondering what the specs of the new server are, so here ya go: Pentium 3 1Ghz - Red Hat Linux - 40GB HD - 512MB RAM.

If you have any questions I'll answer them tommorow afternoon, I'm tired and going to bed now....

If our computers don't have the capability will we not be able to get on? I don't understand a lot of this stuff.

Does this mean you'll be able to run the search function again?

Or was that more a bandwidth issue over a processing speed issue?

You will be able to access the board and all just fine, all the upgrades mean is that the search feature will work, and the server "shouldn't" crash like this one does from time to time.

The new IP addy to the server is: http://64.246.42.114/ feel free to check it out but all I ahve on it is a simple test page for now. If you have the page bookmarked via the current IP (216.221.190.187) you should update your bookmarks to http://67-72chevytrucks.net as it is a redirect domain and will be transfered almost immediatly once I ahve everythign set up, the .com address may take a few days.
