Hello folks!

We have moved our SQL database earlier today, and a couple of hours ago we have changed the DNS. It would be great if you could post here with the results of a PING to geekzone.co.nz. We expect people to start reaching the new server on 210.48.73.74 sometime soon (I am already reaching the new server with an updated DNS).

Thanks!

Jama

Ping is a little higher than other servers that I have used in NZ.... namely other CS servers. But still good (am directly connected to Inspire via Fiber/Eithernet).

Thanks... It seems the DNS replications was quite fast within New Zealand. And I can see some visitor from overseas already on the new server.
