CAA downtime imminent (DNS issues)

For those of you who can still access christiananime.net, the domain name has expired and is currently in registrar lock. That means that within 48-72 hours, depending on your ISP, you will suddenly lose access to CAA.

We're working on the problem, but it may still require at least another similar period after that for your local ISP's domain name service to change back. Those of you who manually hard-coded CAA's Internet address into your computer's host table will not be affected (myself, for example). The address is 67.15.32.13 if you wish to attempt this, but do so only if you know what you're doing.

Hopefully this issue will be resolved quickly.

Important!!!

Instructions on hard-coding the IP address (for win98):

Find the file "C:\Windows\hosts" (no extension) or if there is not such a file, create one. On a new line, type: "67.15.32.13 www.christiananime.net" (no quotes). This will make sure your browser is directed to the correct IP address of the CAA and you probably wont lose your connection to it in the horrible tragedy shooby just described :thumb:

To update, I've just contacted the hosts and gotten the domains renewed. Things should slide back to normal now.

Well, in the meantime, it looks like lots of you have already remembered Anime Angels as an alternative. ^_^
