Is The Pits gone?

6 posts by 5 people · 24 Jun 1998 - 01 Jul 1998

For the last three days, I haven't been able to view The Pits (www.theuspits.com). Netscape claims there's no DNS entry. Are they transitioning to a new server, or gone? If the former and anyone knows the IP address, pleas post it. Thanks, Jonathan
There is a mirror in Norway http://www.arctic.no/thepits/ , but it seems it hasn't been updated since March 98 -Jan Otto

Jonathan, I don`t have the full story, but Jan was due to transfer the whole site to a new server the other day, then he had a MAJOR harddrive failure on his own computer, don`t know how he`s doing at the moment (other than being very pissed, I guess), but knowing Jan, he`ll be back shortly Beers and cheers (uncle) Goy UncleGoy on TEN

since no one else from the pits seems to be around I guess I'll answer that question. I really dont know. We were moving to the the new server early this week. Maybe there are a few little problems. If you notice that iwcccars is also not up. It's on the same server. -- Jim Dunphy The Pits- http://www.theuspits.com
