Free Republic will be down shortly!

To: ALL

Just got a call from John. He is up in San Jose preparing for the move. The system will probably be coming down about two hours from now and it will probably be down for a couple hours. When it comes back up we will be on our new IP address which will be: 209.157.64.200

He has set the current DNS service to expire every hour, so it should not take too long for the new address to propagate out to all the name servers.

Don't forget to bookmark our contingency site: http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/freerepublic

I'm not sure, Ligeia. I think this is just a server change, but I may be wrong. Does anyone know if we will have the new software changes?

If your using Windows......go to start....then Find....Files or Folders...type in cache then press OK. You may have several cache folders pop up. Open each one and look for the one that has about a gazillion bunch of stuff. Go to your tool window and press edit....select all....right click on all the blue ones and hit delete. The only one it shoudn't delete is the file Fatdb. It's usually the first one on the list. This will clear your cache.

The browser is the thing you access the internet through. Either Internet Explorer or Netscape...probably....unless you have a Dell.

Only if you contribute brie during the next fundraiser.....

Good thing I bought beer today!

There isn't enough beer in the world to fix an FR outage. Where's the Irish? AAhh...

No, he's a FReeper who didn't like being on so many ping lists, so he started a vanity decrying the practice :o)
