QSL.net & QTH.net Announcement

December 31, 2008

Dear fellow hams,

After 13 years of providing hams with no cost web space, e-mail forwarding and mailing list services through QSL.net and QTH.net, I have decided to retire. All QSL.net and QTH.net servers and Internet connections at my home QTH are being turned down.

Scott KA9FOX has graciously decided to pick up where I left off, and he is in the process of migrating all services to new hardware. See below for an update on the status of the migration.

I want to thank all of you for all of your support over the years, and I hope that you will support Scott as he takes over the reigns.

See you on the air!

Server Migration Update from Scott KA9FOX <[email protected]>

Last Update: Jan 8, 2009 18:23z

Thank you for your patience as this transition is made. All qsl.net/qth.net services are being moved onto brand new hardware in a well-connected data center in the central US. This web page will be updated so you can stay informed of the progress.

If you would like to make a contribution to support my efforts to keep QSL.net / QTH.net on the web, see the Donation Page.

SERVICESERVERSTATUS
Web Siteswww.qsl.net
(ftp.qsl.net)
All web site data has been moved, and as of Jan 8 18:20z, FTP access should now be working!
Mailing Listsmailman.qth.netTook old server down Jan 5 around 05:30z, migrated data, and brought up new server around 08:15z. Let me know if you are seeing any problems. UPDATE: On Jan 6, some Mailman services were down and we did not catch it until many hours later someone took time to let us know about non-delivery. The problem was fixed, and now all the mail is caught up. No mail was lost, but mail was delayed on Jan 6. Any questions, use the e-mail link above to contact me.
E-mail Forwardingmail.qsl.netSuccessfully converted to new mail forwarding server on Jan 2 around 07:45z. AOL was blocking mail from us, but that block seems to have stopped as of Jan 6 19:00z. We are not aware of any ISPs blocking mail from us at this point.
DX Info/Log Searchdx.qsl.netSuccessfully converted to the new server on Jan 4 around 21:00z. No downtime occurred. Let me or N6RT know if you see any problems.
