Climb New Brunswick - temporarily down

Postby Andrew » Tue May 24, 2011 10:35 am

For anyone who might visit http://climbnb.mine.nu/ (Climb New Brunswick) which is my personal rock climbing page... It is down until I can figure a way to host my website again since I got a different Internet service.

I've got Aliant Fiber Op now (had Aliant ADSL before). For some reason I can't open port 80 for web server. If you are really really good at the stuff, feel free to PM with some help.

Andrew,

I know you try to be a strait-up guy so I'll try to help. Now, I'm a bit out of my league compared to these other guys. Until now, I thought that 'port' was a cheap, sweet, wine suitable for cooking with... or maybe a place to tie up a big boat. However, I've got a question: what is offered by maintaining your site in it's present form v.s. many of the idiot-proof blog formats available, such as the one I use? As far as I can tell, you use your site mainly to share photos, maintain tables, and perhaps post files occasionally? I readily do all of those functions and I keep my ports open for drinking.

This is a serious question. What is the advantage that I'm missing out on? Is it worth the trouble you seem to be experiencing?

Cheers and hope you get it sorted out.


... and i gotta ask... WTF is the lemon pledge thing?

Most of you don't know me very well or my past, so they likely don't know the answers to those questions stated above.

Chris - yes that's a good idea and I've done that for some things like my car websites which are mostly only of interest to me and a few other crazy VW fans :) THe problem with those sites as they could eventually disappear and you could loose your data.

I've been hosting some sort of public service from my home PC since 1995 without more than a few days interruption. I use my website as a way to run my climbing website with loads of photos and some climbing journals. It's mostly for me and secondarily for friends/family so I can direct people to my pictures or a file.

I enjoy playing around at HTML and hosting various info and media. It's a little bit of fun for me. Granted, I don't keep much of it up to date, but it's still fun.

With ADSL BellAliant, I had no ports blocked and could run this webservice. It wasn't hurting anyone, regardless of the usage policy. Now that I've been forced to take FiberOp15/15, for some reason, they've configured things so as to block my use of port 80 and some other ports. I tried port mapping and it didn't work, but I'm no longer a computer geek. I was from the early 90's until a few years after college, but kinda left it be for pursuit of better career, social and mainly rock climbing.

So that's way too much information, but anyhow... The site has returned in basic form (5 MB worth of webspace provided by BellAliant for free).

Not many pix, but my logs and some pix of new routes are online until I find another way.

I've been learking around here but finally a topic I can comment on :)

I've been though this before and after a few solutions / failures I gave up once I realized how much of my free time I was putting into this.

I have my site hosted now. It always works, got network backup storage now, support, etc.. It cost money sure but saves time and love the network backup for my personal stuff. I tried the free sites but having unlimited storage on the paid sites made it worth while.

Here is who I use: http://www.lunarpages.com/web-hosting/basic-hosting/

Cost between $50-$60 a year

Colin,

Thanks :)

I got it working again... don't ask how and it's not hosted on my computer anymore and it's free for now. I'll look into your suggested site cause ultimately that is likely what will happen.

You coming to cape spencer on saturday?
