Error: Master server unreachable...

I sent a PM to erehwoN and Beppo today asking for their help. I'll send Beppo an email tomorrow morning.

If we cannot get SOB to put the server up again, I'd like to put a new one up and ask SOB to redirect the original DNS entry towards the new server IP. That way it would be transparent to the end-user using the default .ini settings. But I can't do that alone, and no one on SOB is answering my post (not that anyone is answering any post on their forum).

But to start with, a news post needs to be officially made on the INF news page. Bad news are not important, this is.

I got a server shared between friends somewhere on a 10mbit (no, it wont make a game server, only p3 1ghz) but if the thing to list servers is not too cpu intensive I could have a look to put it on that server (btw it's running linux )

Or you allready have a server in mind? (or ask Odie to host it?)

Well, first lets try to get in contact with the SOB server guys to see whats going on. Maybe the server is down and they don't even know about it -_-

I'm just stating a possibility

Geo you are probably right, else they would have made a annoncement about it.

Looks like it's back up. wee.

 

[Beppo]

yepp, DB fixed it

 

[geogob]

Thank you to both of you.

Indeed. Thank you for bringing it back. No masterserver is what INF needs the least these days - especially after the bunch of recent bad news...
