  • Host name change

    Hi All,

    My host name in the IBN: field for my nodes in the AmigaNet nodelist has changed to: amiganet.fidoweb.net

    Links that have my host name configured directly in their configs, are advised to change it to the new one.
    Currently the old one is still working, but I don't know for how long that will remain the case...

    Bye, Wilfred.

    I see it resolves, so my config has been updated.

    Hi Stephen,

    There is a bit of a vanity factor in above host name ;), and I may change my mind about it in the future. So I also made f464.n280.z2.fidoweb.net, that will always resolve to my node in the future and not change on a whim. So you could also use that in your configuration.

    To reflect this in the host name, I made it a cname "chain":

    # host fmailhq.fidoweb.net
    fmailhq.fidoweb.net is an alias for f464.n280.z2.fidoweb.net. f464.n280.z2.fidoweb.net is an alias for fidoweb.net.
    fidoweb.net has address 45.83.243.76
    fidoweb.net has IPv6 address 2a10:3781:26c9:1:f1d0:2:280:464
    fidoweb.net mail is handled by 10 sink.arpa.

    And I did the same for the the amiganet host name:

    # host amiganet.fidoweb.net
    amiganet.fidoweb.net is an alias for z39.fidoweb.net.
    z39.fidoweb.net is an alias for f200.n150.z39.fidoweb.net. f200.n150.z39.fidoweb.net is an alias for fidoweb.net.
    fidoweb.net has address 45.83.243.76
    fidoweb.net has IPv6 address 2a10:3781:26c9:1:f1d0:2:280:464
    fidoweb.net mail is handled by 10 sink.arpa.


    Bye, Wilfred.
