rimfirecentral down?

Post by Remander » Sun Oct 30, 2005 1:11 am

It's down tonight, and I see posts from others on THR and Glocktalk rimfire board saying they also can't access it.

I know many folks here are familiar with that board.

Any ideas as to the status of rimfirecentral?

Thanks

Just a guess...

webservers keep LOGS of just about everything.
This is TimeChange night... and many WebMasters
will just shut-down their servers for the overlap
periods to avoid confusion of the LOGging.

They can use the time to update/ refresh/ backup
the server and come back on-line a little later.
Also, many may extend the time-frame to include
time-change over many timezones.

I wouldn't worry about them until they fail to return
Sun afternoon.

My attempts responded quickly with 'Svr Not Found'
this was too-quick to be the ServerFarm, it is something
in the DNS (server lookup), so may not be ANYthing
to do with "rimfireCentral" itself...

Looks like they are back up, and all is well.
