New Server and CVS Freezed

January 18th, 2007 by Rui Campos (rcas)

Hi all.

We have moved to a new server with another hoster. Bluehost kept our server down for sometime now, keeping lots of people out of this Community Website, and I couldn’t take it anymore, as of now we are already in a new server.

Its more then likely that you didn’t even notice the change, besides the server being more responsive.
Hopefully we will now be able to scale things in a better way with this hosting solution on the Network Redux servers.

I would only ask you to report on the speed and stability.

Going onto things that might interest you more, CVS is now Freezed, what this means is that there will be no more features included from now until de release, only bug fixes.

RC2 should also be hitting the road soon.

Thanks for all the support,

– Rui –

    I think you made a good move myself. I too am with Bluehost and I’m none too happy to move.

    Thanks again for the awesome site, most helpful when I just want a build and not wanting to spend the time building it myself ;)

    To Scott:
    Thanks for the heads up.
    NetworkRedux is really cool.

    Pleasure. Thanks for the suggestion I’ll have to lookup NetworkRedux.

    Rui, any word out on how the chroot is coming? Just another anxious Blender user (yeah I know the offical build is coming out - but I want to compare render speeds with CPU optimized builds!)

    Thanks for all your hard work — what you do is really appreciated and used by many people!

    Give a couple of days.

    Indeed, this server responds much quicker. Congratulations!

  7. Dude man Says:

    It’s also faster to download too! Where is this server hosted? I’m thinking of hosting my website also.

    Thanks,

    PS: The RC2 2.43 official build is AWESOME! I’m testing it now with several configurations. And it is working splended!

    To Dude man:
    The hoster is in the US, its not cheap, but its reliable.
    Check http://www.NetworkRedux.com .

    PS: Am about to post the news on the RC2.

  9. Dude man Says:

    WOW! Thanks Rui,

    Compared to my internet bill at home, it’s 1/9 of the cost! I need to switch ISP or get a lower rate ;)

    Do they have BitTorrent trackers capability? Because I can produce movies with Blender and share them that way, even 250GB per month is not enough if you have 10,000s of seeds/peers ;)

    To Dude man:
    You will have to ask them that.
    They have bigger bandwidth packages, but also more expensive.
