Host switch

Any frequent users of any of the services run on the khobbits.co.uk domain might have noticed that a lot of things have begun to forward to khobbits.net. At the beginning of the month I got an email from the people who currently host khobbits.co.uk who have decided to go bust. Basically by the start of April it wont be long before khobbits.co.uk stops being hosted, khobbits.net I have hosted with Dreamhost, as part of the signup deal I got two domains for free, but they refuse to host khobbits.co.uk due to it having been previously hosted with them for a period of a few weeks back when I was scratting around for hosting after I just bought the domain.

I do have a few ideas about how I can keep the khobbits.co.uk domain active but I don’t see any reason not to move everything to khobbits.net which no matter which way I deal with khobbits.co.uk, will be better hosted.

If anyone can find an issue with any of the domains I manage don’t hesitate to drop me an email. I’ve yet to set up khobbits.net for email, so use the old domain for now.

Edit: Oh no I moved host again, but forgot to make a post about it. This time I got sick of Dreamhost and moved to my self managed Linode VPS. This was useful as i was able to merge all my hosts onto one box. Although I’m not sure if it saves me any money, at least I get experience managing a *nix (Ubuntu) server.
