Zeus’ long running service came to an abrupt ending this morning when a data-centre tech prematurely disconnected it just after I’d made a backup but, hey, all is good. We decided to replace Zeus (UK2.net ~ London, England) with Pandora (ovh.co.uk ~ Paris, France) because it made better financial sense and, would you believe it, Pandora is also much faster.
The end user will not notice any massive difference in the service provided by BitTraffic although the new server will be faster to respond to requests, reverse DNS requests will be processed faster and customers can now make use of IPV6 addresses if they wish. Pandora is running FreeBSD 7.0-Release, the latest and most stable FreeBSD release available.
As mentioned thanks to OVH BitTraffic now offers IPV6 functionality including the availability for clients to run websites, ircd servers and such like on the latest generation of Internet Protocol. For more information please contact us.
BitTraffic’s name servers have been updated so as long as your domain’s nameservers read ns3/ns4.bittraffic.com your website will work just fine.
Many thanks for sticking with us, we do appreciate your business.
