Hi Gandi, I've noticed that often when service issues arise, you write on your site that people should not do things like reboot their PaaS or IaaS instances during these periods. Can it be assumed that doing so would cause catastrophic issues, or just a temporary downtime, or what? IMO it cannot be relied upon that people will see the service issue reports before doing these operations. If it has potential to cause damage then you should have a switch that disables the ability to reboot on all affected systems during the danger period.

with and without "www" - two different sites
I recently purchased Simple Hosting for www.lykkepilleriet.dk. During the setup I was informed to make sure to have the domain directing to: gpaas11.dc2.gandi.net. So I have changed to this: www CNAME gpaas11.dc2.gandi.net. And it works perfect!! However, if I do not write "www" I am redirected to a page saying: "This domain name has been registered with Gandi.net". How do I change to be redirected to my Simple hosting also with only typing: lykkepilleriet.dk ? I have currently this record: @ A 217.70.184.38 Thank you, Jens Kristian Moller

Trouble updating name servers to point to new Gandi hosting
My names are registered with namecheap.com and I am trying to update the name servers to point to my new Simple Hosting. When I try to add "gpaas1.dc1.gandi.net" I get an error saying that I need two name servers. So (just guessing here) I tried using "gpaas1.dc1.gandi.net" and "gpaas2.dc2.gandi.net" which also errors out saying either: "Nameserver 'gpaas1.dc1.gandi.net' could not be registered" Any help appreciated!

commentaires et archives disparus
Bonjour, Subitement les commentaires ont disparu de mon site et j'ai beau avoir le widget "derniers commentaires" en place, ils ne reviennent pas ; en fait sur le site n'apparaissent plus dans l'ordre les widgets tels que je les enregistre. La fonction "archives" a aussi disparu. Que faire ? Merci Patrick Ducray

Hi, I would like to know how I link the git repo to github. I would like to make changes on their website, and let the git repo update on Simple Hosting. Is this possible? Would Gandi create a 'Service Hook'? https://github.com/github/github-services Peter

How long till gandimail and forwarding is active?
Hello, Yesterday I purchased a domain and setup a a gandi mail and a few forwarding emails... With my gandi mail I can send messages but have yet to receive messages (setup for about a day) when I try to test if the account can receive emails. With my forwarded mails they don't seem to be active, how long does this usually take before this becomes active? Thanks in advance!

VPN, OpenVPN and Windows networking
Hello, I want to make my GANDI server into a file server for Windows client to connect and read/write files on my GANDI server. For this purpose I installed Samba on my GANDI server and configured it ti share a directory, thansk to the Ubuntu documentation. Now I need to establish network connectivity with the Windows clients. I have researched about this and found that OpenVPN available with Ubuntu would allow me to make the GANDI server into a VPN server. I could then use OpenVPN GUI for Windows to connect from the Windows clients which are indivdual machines on internet, not in an Enterprise Domain. Has anybody done this already and can provide me with guidance? Is there a need for an additional interface in addition to the standard one I have on the GANDI server? In the forum, searching for "VPN" I have found a topic about IPsec and Openswan. Would it be a better solution than OpenVPN and why? The security issues? Thank you for your help

"This DNS resource record seems invalid" error for TXT and SPF records
Hello, I'm trying to update my zone file in order to add SPF records. Here's what I'm trying to do: * create a TXT record for @ with the following contents: "v=spf1 ip4:xx.xx.xx.xx include:_spf.google.com ~all" (xx.xx.xx.xx being the IP address of a server sending e-mail for that domain) * create a SPF record for @ with the same contents When I try to create those records in standard mode, I get the error message "This DNS resource record seems invalid" and when I try to create them in expert mode, it says "Line 10: This DNS record is incorrect". Since I'm pretty sure the records I'm trying to create are correct (especially because this is pretty close to what Gandi says at their own Wiki: http://wiki.gandi.net/en/dns/zone/spf-reco...) I was a bit surprised by these error messages and in order to test the system I thus tried to create a simple TXT entry with the contents "test". This test entry doesn't work either and returns the same error messages. Is anyone aware of a problem with the creation of TXT and SPF records in Gandy DNS zone files? If so, is there any way to circumvent this problem? Thanks in advance for your replies!

Gandi Hosting.
Hi Guys, Long time user of gandi domain services, but never ventured into the hosting. I currently use liquid web, however no longer require that spec of server. I need personal name servers but thats about the only extra i need. Slightly concerned that im used to having live chat support. How quick are gandi to respond? Also, ive gone through the terms and conditions, do gandi block proxy sites? I dont own any, but i do sell the designs, so proxys will be on my hosting for a day or two at a time.

Does Simple Hosting support using CGI scripts? If so, do any limitations apply (other than the standard 128MB process limit)?

Organization Nick
Hi, I have a personal account with Gandi with some domains, and now an organization I am a member of wants to register a domain name in the name of the organization. The org is a Dutch "Stichting" or Foundation. What would be the right way to go about setting up an organizatonal account for the administration of the new domain name? The idea is that we want the organization to own the name, and not just one individual person. Regards, Dave
