We’ve updated our PowerDNS Authoritative Server installations to version 3.1, the current release version. PowerDNS is used to drive our Primary DNS service offering.
The method in which AXFR ACLs were handled in pre-3.1 versions (separate database table) is now different in 3.1 (using the existing domain metadata table), so unfortunately that feature was delayed again. However at this point we don’t believe it’s going to change away from being part of the metadata, so we’re moving forward with this method to a front end in the account control center.
Effective immediately we have removed the “Cancel Invoice” button from the control center invoice pages. Invoices for colocation, dedicated servers, and internet access may no longer be canceled online as they may have unfulfilled term commitments or an agreement addendum that needs to be reviewed prior to any cancellations. Similar to the upcoming changes we’re forced to make for Mail/DNS usage handling (see this post) this cancellation feature, while convenient, will unfortunately no longer be available. Inquiries should instead be directed to us by email to open a ticket.
Our Mail/DNS services can still be canceled online by going to your Account Profile page in the control center and clicking on the “cancel” link shown next to the service.

Our New Weather Camera
Have you ever wondered what things look like outside from our offices? If so, then you’re in luck! We recently put a camera up on the roof as a weather camera. It’s on our weather radio page (http://rollernet.us/wxradio) and updates every minute. You’ll need to reload the page though since it isn’t auto-refreshing quite yet.
The mountains in the distance on the right that are unfortunately partially blocked by the trees across the street are Mt. Rose and Slide Mountain, home of the Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe resort. The camera is facing slightly southwest. The image below is hotlinked to the updating image as well.
We’ll probably do some other fun stuff with it later such as a live stream option, auto-updating snapshot, archives, and possibly more cameras as time permits. We are currently uploading the image to Weather Underground every minute. For now we have the basic snapshot and it’s a start.
