I restarted them and we are investigating the financial implications of 2 long term solutions : rebuild the server hardware (short term high cost) or go for hosting (long term commitment needed). But it will take some weeks to make a decision.

What kind of cost are we talking? Just a rough estimate? Thanks!

probably around 400 to 450 for the upgrades to the core system.

Hosting is a bit spotty. Probably around 30 to 40 a month.

while a hosted server has some appeals its an ongoing cost, so i'd be more inclined to favor the upgrade. heck, i'll 'host' the server at my place if you like, lol... theo/zandel and i live just outside orlando, he works out of his home office and sadly my disabilities keep me home bound most of the time, so at least there'd almost always be someone to do resets anytime :wink: seriously though, whatever hardware needed that'll stabilize the servers, count me in! and thanks Terry, for keepin' the fun alive for all of us that enjoy Arkaz! *hugs* tish/struldbruggian

All three servers time out. Player tracking and player Status will not display. So looks like NWN and DB is down.

Tried to direct connect to all 3 servers - same response for each:
Server found: attempting to log in.

Then it just hangs there for eternity *sadness*

unsuccessful at direct connect attempts yesterday, but today it looks like its working, yay!

to direct connect, you need to type in the new server IP address:

for Nuvar: 96.252.179.35:5121
for Iron: 96.252.179.35:5122
for Toloira: 96.252.179.35:5123

sorry for all the hassles Terry, and thanks for rollin' with the changes ;~)

Game On!

Are the servers down again or am I more likely doing things wrong ?
