Another day, another webhost...the free 1&1 account I switched over to has had problems getting the name servers working, and it's been 3 days since I switched to them. No replies to my support emails at all. I'm going to assume they have no interest in helping me since it's a free account, and get a real account at a different provider. For $11.95 I'm getting 1.8 gigs of storage, 35 gigs bandwidth, and a free domain. We'll see how this one works...
Also, I'm in the process of transferring my domain from the discount no-name registrar I got it from, to Network Solutions. NetSol has had much better support and a much easier to use control panel for configuring my other domains. You get what you pay for I guess...but at least NetSol is honoring my remaining years on the domain, and giving me an additional free year extension for switching!
...Hope to have all this resolved this week.
