Today and for the rest of the week I will be moving accounts from the server ‘Vanilla’ to the server ‘Chocolate’. While *most* of you won’t notice a thing, some of you may see a “Website Moved” page. This simply means that your computer still has the old DNS cached and once that cache updates, the page will go away.

Why the move? Well, Vanilla is about 4 years old and she’s ready to retire. There has been problems with her almost monthly with MySQL database errors and those will now be eliminated.

What do you need to do? If your domain is registered through Twenty70 Hosting, then I’ve updated your domain DNS information for you. Once the DNS changes propagate around the world (which doesn’t take but a few minutes these days) all visitors will be viewing the site on the newest server. If you’re still having trouble viewing the site, then the old DNS information is still cached. You can either wait for the cache to update, unplug your modem for a few seconds (my preferred method :-\ ) or follow the steps below:

If your domain is NOT with Twenty70 Hosting, you will receive an e-mail from me regarding the transfer of your domain.

Clearing Cache:

Windows® XP, 2000, or Vista®

1. Open the Start menu.
2. Go to Run.
   • If you do not see the Run command in Vista, search for “run” in the Search bar.
3. In the Run text box, type: ipconfig /flushdns
4. Press Enter or Return, and your cache will be flushed.

MacOS®

1. Go to Applications.
2. Go to Utilities.
3. Open the Terminal application.
4. Type: dscacheutil -flushcache
5. Press Enter or Return, and your cache will be flushed.

If you have any questions at all, please log in to your client dashboard and submit a ticket. I will be happy to help in anyway I can.
