The u2ug.org web was redirecting to my old hosted provider, which I no longer
use. The change to a new provider - with more capacity - is one step towards
rewriting the site (finally), itself part of a very exciting set of proposals
the board are putting together for the direction in
Jeff is right in theory though you would need to be careful whenever you run
an upgrade account.
If you really want to secure the VOC you would also need to lock out all
other forms of access such as UniObjects: you can easily create a little
VBScript to connect through with this and
Thanks Brian and Colin!

Massage that once per UV upgrade, then apply it to all VOCs that need

Pointing the WWW host isn't so much about where/who the registrar is, but where
the nameservers are.
Network Solutions does offer DNS services, but the u2ug.org domain appears to

Theoretically speaking, of course, couldn't you give an administrator

From my understanding, name servers are all around the internet. When

This may be more about name resolution than you ever wanted to know, but here
goes anyway... (knowledge is always a good thing). Sorry for the long post,
domain name resolution is often misunderstood (kind of like people referring to
somename.com as a top level domain or TLD - it's not, it's a

it usually means something is holding it open, if you download the sysinternals
tools (Google sysinternals) they can show you the processes holding a file
open. From memory its the 'handle' command but check the docs.

Should you then be able to delete records within this file (Files within this

Or does the mere fact that you have a

If it worked and in a loop, check that the previous shell did finish. It
might still have the file opened, therefore cannot be deleted (unlink).

I just noticed the OP posted his original message nearly 4 years ago, so
I don't know if he's still listening, but thought I'd reply anyway for
the benefit of anyone else who might have interest. I put a wrappers

My solution
Hey Larry! First off, thanks for all you've done, and continue to do for
U2UG and U2 users. It's greatly appreciated.
My .02 is that the user group have a constant, positive face to the world.
My choice is that everything that comes from, or goes to U2UG is tagged as
U2UG.ORG. Currently, it's
Brian, Larry, and Robert (for the explanation to the others of my
predicament).
I have been trying to figure out how to redirect the www.u2ug.org to Brian's
new webserver (IP) without disrupting the listserver.u2ug.org. Robert you
are correct that Network Solutions does not host the domain
Bill,
You missed something =).
Network solutions does not host the domain only redirects to the specified
named server(s) (ns9.angelichost.net), i.e. doesn't host the A or MX record
directly.

To reiterate -- AngelicHost hosts the DNS for U2UG.org. We have complete
control over the A, MX, CNAME, etc. records. Right now, all of the DNS

Ahhh...the old let's do it differently so we can kill ourselves in

Who hosts the A and MX records?

Thanks Larry. That was what I was alluding to. I just thought Network
Solutions had control of those records, but you've set me straight on
that. I suspect the process isn't any different, just who's doing it is.
Thanks again.
