Jan Still's site
 

I know someone hacked his site, but I may have missed something. Is he ever coming back? I just started posting there also and do miss the great information there (as here). Any ideas if or when his site will be up and running again? Thank you all.

josef, It is presently up and running on a trial basis. I believe it will open officially on the 12th. Jerry Burney

Thanks Brandon and Jerry!!

Its down again & apparently so is Gunboard.com.

There is a problem, if that wasn't obvious from my companions above, :D

Brent is working on it, lost some sleep last night...

gunboard.com has been down for several weeks. I inquired about it here and a poster replied that he logged in to gunboard.com every evening. I suspected that he was wrong at the time. Armscenter.com is also down. Some of the hosted sites are operating, though.

Gunboard.com was down for about two days as they switched to a new program. Actually not down, but it took them about two days to switch from the old program to the new one - somthing about switching ip's or smething like that,

I was on it as recent as late yeserday evening.
Now it is down as well as well as Jan's new site.

This morning is the first time that I have been able to bring up the site in several weeks. And the first link that I tried did not work. I will try some more links.

The links weren't working, but are now.

Hi folks,

Yes, Jerry is right - the latest is the 12th and Jan expects that at the absolute latest, it will be the 15th. As I mentioned, when Jan's Forums are finalized - this Forum will be closed for a day or two, with a redirect link to Jan's Forums.

As well, I just re-registered on Jan's site as it's on-line and looking pretty good! BUT - the "official launch" is in a few days...

As a side note - I really applaud Jan Still and the folks at Tucos for not allowing a bunch of hackers destroy his Forum. I think it's terrific there will be - once again - an adjacent site for all and any Luger enthusiast and collectors.

It's what it's all about....

Yup, there are just a few bugs that Tuco is working out, but today everything has been working, or we know where the problems lie and are trying to fix how pictures show up.

Jan said that he would like to go live Friday, but maybe go live for Luger people and then go live for gunboards a few days later.

Ed

Does anyone know if we will all have to re-register to access Jan's site?

Tom A

Tom,

Yes you do.

Mike

And when you reregister, the name that will show is the user name, so it is easy to screw up, but as of today, Jan and I have admin rights and can fix problems like that.

:)

Ed

Ed,

Could you post the link to Jan's site? I would like to register..

Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve,

Try:
http://www.gunboards.com/luger/default.asp

Let me know if that works, OK??? I will change the link on the LugerForum "Links" page in a bit....

Thanks John.

Steve

When I click on Jan's old site "favorite", I get a notice that the new site will be coming back September 5th!!! Am I doing something wrong?

Yes, the server IP is totally different, you need to use the one that John suggested.

Thanks, Ed, appreciate the new link info.

Ed, sent you PM, thanks

I have tried no less than 4 times to get re-connected with Jan's site and the ##&&@@!!! thing doesn't seem to want me to be successful.

I attempted using my previous handle, pw and e-mail, NO; tried a new one of each, NO!

This shouldn't be so flippin' difficult.
Tom A.

well glad too hear its not me, and my very limited computer skills, Ed can you help out, thanks

I had no problem & that is unusual. Probably will never happen again.

Tom,

I don't know if this is the problem for you,If the page comes up member login it will not work you have to go to not a member register here at the right and click. At least thats what happened to me.

Mike

Tom, are you tring the old favorites you had? That won't work, as it is a totally NEW computer. You HAVE to re-register, this is a brand new computer system and obviously the old settings will not work.

I also seem to have a problem getting past the *AGREE* portion of the registration. So, my solution is:

If you are running netscape or firewall / ad blockers, you might have problems, I disabled mine, shut down all browsers, then started it again, using the new address, then it will work.
