Web page moving madness

I have tamed the Apache "redirect" directive, and suddenly I have the power to move Web pages without breaking old links. Hurrah! I've immediately moved all my Whitby photos into the "whitby" directory, since the way they were organised before was just a mess.

In addition, I now feel much more confident about the idea of hacking the Web server that serves my pages to directly serve the domains I run, which include

ciphergoth.org
ciphergoth.com
cyphergoth.org
frubbly.org
frubbly.com
frubbly.net
bdsm-alba.org.uk
2002.bicon.org.uk

as well as cluefactory.org.uk of course. And cyphergoth.com in the near future.

Now I have to decide what shape I want my whole website to be. At the moment, www.ciphergoth.org takes you to my crypto-related pages, but it's my general Net alias, so maybe it should be about me. Should I have a separate domain for my professional life? At the moment, the "official" URL for my most recent paper is http://www.ciphergoth.org/leviathan/ - should that change? Perhaps to http://www.ciphergoth.org/crypto/leviathan/ ?

Decisions, decisions...

And, of course, I'll get the cyphergoth.* varients pointed to your sites. Drop me a mail with the primary and secondary DNS, and I'll point them the correct way. Will transfer ownership shortly after.

Here ya go

NS raq3.antipope.org.
NS ns1.secondary.com.
NS ns2.secondary.com.

all ready to go. I'll mail this to you to...

Which variants besides cyphergoth.com do you have?

cheers,

I'm rather freaked out by the fact that I don't actually remember making that previous post. I hope it wasn't obvious to everyone that I was pretty drunk this morning. I'm never, never doing that "stay awake all night to make early meeting" thing again.

But to get back on topic, I have:

cyphergoth.com
cyphergoths.com

Updating the DNS's to point your way now. Transfer of ownership can follow, its less important than getting the former sorted.

Done. May take 24-72 hrs to take effect, but they should be pointing yer way now.

antipope.org?

Cool! yay!

It's Charlie Stross's machine. It was meant to be autopope.org but someone made a mistake...
