This does mean that while the forum will continue as it currently is for the time being, the move away is still on the cards.G3AR will definitely not be shut, including the forums. Not quite sure if Panorama will allow the forums to be run elsewhere, but that’s is purely up to them.

I'm currently running their R99/pm Starter VPS. It does what I need it to for my own personal purposes, but may need an upgrade on the disk space side of things (the database will take a sizeable chunk of that).hamin_aus wrote:What sort of cost are we looking at for this, and how would an off-the-shelf hosting package like the R79 one at WebAfrica (or something similar) stack up?
I can easily chip in R100 a month towards the forum, that's about the cost of 2 cups of coffee in Perth
The server (valyria.ron2k.za.net) currently runs httpd, mysqld, bind, ntpd and sendmail. I have a second VPS in New York (westeros.ron2k.za.net) acting as my secondary nameserver, as well as acting as my imap server and providing some additional ntpd sanity.
It is, as is the org.za equivalent. I actually like this idea.Stuart wrote:In fact, is sidebar.co.za available?
