Lance Williams Posted July 22, 2005 at 11:25 PM Posted July 22, 2005 at 11:25 PM Yep, I only suggested the domain names if VATSIM didn't want to do the subdomain option. Thank you, Lance W.

Ross Carlson Posted July 23, 2005 at 01:11 AM Posted July 23, 2005 at 01:11 AM Brad, isn't this what we've been suggesting? (Subdomain) Sort of. From what I've seen so far, some of the suggestions had been to register a new domain altogether (vatsimusa.net, vat.us, etc.) and throw everything over there. That, of course, would cost money. Doing it with vatsim.net's DNS entry would be the cleanest, and cost nothing in terms of domain name registration. Other than that, it'd be the same. BL. Yeah, I meant the subdomain suggestions. Subdomains can be nothing more than an A record in the main domain DNS. I definitely think that's the way to go, but the centralization of control (just one domain to own and control) might be a political problem, dunno.

Jeff Thomas Posted July 23, 2005 at 02:21 AM Posted July 23, 2005 at 02:21 AM The issues with the website have been resolved. And no one from Simi Valley was involved, but conspiracy theories are fun to watch develop. However, in this case, the said person had nothing to do with the issue...at all.

"..Tyler (oo did I say that?)". Highest age I've heard that from was like 12 bud. Grow up and stop trying to start stuff. You're only making yourself look worse.

Robin Goodchild 928027 Posted July 24, 2005 at 06:46 PM Posted July 24, 2005 at 06:46 PM Sub domains is a good idea, but I can also see why they would be reluctant to do it as well. Storage space, bandwidth issues, and then having every single division on one server is kind of scary as well, no matter how much backup there is. None of that would be an issue - DNS is a totally seperate system from any web server etc. that you may be using. What would be issue is the owner of the primary domain allowing the existance of sub-domains (or not, as the case may be). I think it would make a lot of sense to do this, as it is all related to VATSIM. Best regards, Robin. How about this. In talking to the powers that be at VATSIM, why not have whoever is the technical contact for the vatsim.net domain create an A record that has vatusa.vatsim.net listed at the 208.x.x.x address that is the VATUSA website? That way, you have an alternate way of getting to the site, at least on a temporary basis, until the whole vatusa.org registration fiasco is taken care of? For example, in vatsim.net's zone in their primary/secondary DNS: vatusa IN A 208.x.x.x change the serial (date + revision), reload the primary and secondary DNS, and we have vatusa.vatsim.net all set to go. Comments? BL. NOT at Brad Littlejohn: That is ALL a domain name registration is! People seem to think it is so much more........................ Sadly, ISPs particularly seem to like to charge for this. Again - it is whether the owners of the primary domain wish to do this or not, but I'm in favor. Best regards, Robin.
