As we already had notified you, today between 10:00 and 13:00 CET we had a schedueled maintenance to setup our new web, database and backup infrastructure and new PNS5 server in Russia. Everything went successfully, without problems and currently the system is running at this new infrastructure at Netherlands. To protect your data we have started new backup system with real time replication from Netherlands to United States and United Kingdom, and daily archive storing at Germany and Russia.

If you use slave zones, you should enable new IP addresses of PNS5 for zone transfers (AXFR): 141.105.65.74

If you use DNS branding, you should rebrand your PNS5 server to the new IP addresses: 141.105.65.74

Thank you for choosing to work with ClouDNS.

Because of the technical problems we had, we have moved our NS1 to a new place in Netherlands. With IP addresses:
IPv4: 85.159.233.17
IPv6: 2a00:1768:1001:9::1

If you use slave zones, you should enable these IP addresses for zone transfers (AXFR).

If you use DNS branding, you should rebrand your NS1 server to the new IP addresses.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

We have added a new option for headers type of web redirects whithout frame. For every web redirect you can choose between 301 Moved permanently and 302 Temporary redirect. By default already added records work as a 302 Temporary redirect (this is the default type with which the web redirects had been working until now).

We made some improvements of our control panel which include:

• Option to change the master domains of the clouds - in your cloud you will see a new icon (cloud), for every domain, from which you can set this domain to be a master.
• Title, description and keywords for Web Redirects with frame - this option give you the chance to manage the SEO of the frames.
• Save request path for Web Redirects - with this option you can save "/requested_file.txt" in the redirect.

If you have any ideas to improve our control panel or you need a new feature, do not hesitate to contact us at support@cloudns.net
