After moving HTNet to my new dedicated server, I needed to find out whether the domain has correctly pointed to the IP address of my the server. I was scouring the web for a tool that would help me query a few DNS servers around the world and report to me what they think is the IP address for my domain.

The past few days have been quite hectic for me and it’s all related to servers!

• The database server at work suffered from a faulty processor on Awal Muharram (10th January, a public holiday in Johor) and the maintenance agreement for that particular server had expired. Luckily, it’s sorted out within a few hours and a replacement processor was installed.
• I’ve also taken on a project to set up a Linux web server for a medical supply company which needed to be delivered by the 11th. I manage to meet the deadline and the server is up and running right now.
• I’ve purchased a VDS to host some web sites including HTNet and there were some complications in the delivery. However, it’s all sorted now.

Touching on the last point, I’ve moved the content of HTNet onto this new server and if you’re reading this then you’re seeing the first post published on the new server

2008 is finally upon us and it’s time to get things running more smoothly. Forget the holiday mood, forget the fun you had last night and let’s get serious with work and making more money

Here’s wishing all HTNet readers a prosperous and exciting new year!

I’ve been accumulating some useful links to some wonderful blogs into that sidebar area called Blogs I Read. Over the years it has grown quite long, so it’s only fitting that I do some housekeeping. I’ve decided that I’ll only leave a handful of links in there.
