[plot]

i almost got in a fight with a guy once when i told that joke. the funny part is, afterwards, he went outside to start his harley and it wouldnt start

Ugh, change control.....ugh.

Remedy is the worst-written software EVER. Even captcha makes more sense.

Then you obviously have never used Change Gear.

That usually happens with the older batteries and the short-trip bar-hopping, the batteries just don't get charged enough to start the beast reliably.

My neighbor's is a '77 which he puts TONS of miles on and he still had that problem on colder days, so he upgraded the battery and hasn't had a problem since.

If there was anything worse than Remedy, it would have to involve stacking colored rocks on taiwanese midgets heads while they do a conga line around the office.

Perhaps it's the implementation that we have, but it's truly beyond retarded.

This is so boring. needs more fire.

It's hurting his rep in the "community".

isn't that one of the amf years?

It could be, seems to run perfectly fine to me.

Not sure WHAT bike of that era didn't require careful maintenance though, even my '82 Yamaha has a srtricter schedule than the more modern '05 Suzuki I had.

The KTM on the other hand......is a little more maintenance intensive

(my dns-fu is VERY weak)

the DNS servers will be changing as well, so will that still matter?

Yeah it probably would have helped. But at this point it may be too late now since the old TTL is most likely cached everywhere. Just cut it over and we'll hope for the best. If you know the IP address that the server will be moving to, that would be sweet to post (assuming it is dedicated for this web site).

current zone file: uselessforums.com. zz SOA ns7.zoneedit.com. soacontact.zoneedit.com. (1158625435 14400 7200 950400 7200)

1158625435 = serial of the current zone file (increments by one each time you change it, so your nameservers know when copy is the latest)
14400 = refresh the secondary nameservers (in seconds)
7200 = retry setting for the secondary nameservers in case of problem (in seconds)
950400 = expire records on secondary nameservers after this time(in seconds)
7200 = TTL (in seconds), minimum caching of time in case of failed lookups

So dropping 7200 to like 600 seconds, i.e. 10 minutes. IP changes in the zone file *should* propagate the intarwebnets quicker.

Yeah, after I have the new server setup, I'll add the IP to the 'forum closed' message here.
