Hey Guys,
I really appreciate the discussion around making the site better. I wear a lot of hats (master of none) so I welcome any advise on increasing site performance. I finally got the PTR record squared away so there shouldn't be any more blocking of emails from the site now. Thanks, Keith |

Have you considered "Starboard to Unix" ? |

I'm not going to argue one technology over another. What I will jump on is a broad generalization that changing the platform will speed up a site. That's just a blind, silly shotgun statement and is not realistic input. Yeah, Keith will just "port it over to unix". He'll just press the big button on the server that says "PORT TO UNIX" and it'll be awesome. Arguing about one platform over another is a waste of time and a crutch when talking about programming. |

shared server resources? don't you think this site gets enough traffic that it should be on a dedicated box? that's a problem right there.
obviously your database needs to be optimized correctly, but unix and mysql are faster and more stable than windows period and they use much less RAM. there are not many IT professionals that would disagree with that statement. and if they do they never stepped outside of the windows OS. i still LOVE this site and everything Keith has done. |

Keith is aware of the missing PTR record. Please go on and on about how just changing the OS will, alone, optimize the site and database relationships and indexing, as well as queries and caching, connection speed, shared server resources, optimize the code and HTTP response/request payloads. Sounds like a really magical operating system. |

yeah, i think Keith is working on the email issue as I brought that to his attention a week ago. i host an email server and it doesn't accept emails from correctcraftfan.com because the dns records are not configured correctly and a properly configured email server *SHOULD* be rejecting emails from correctcraftfan.com as a spam precaution. obviously, the emails coming from this site are not spam, but servers think it might be because of the mis-configuration.
M3Fan, UNIX operating systems are much more efficient, cheaper, stable, secure, and i could really go on and on... if Keith, ever had the desire to do this all he would have to do is ask me. this is what i get in my mail server logs when i try and get an email from the forums to my email address:: postfix/smtpd[766]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from unknown[64.187.104.141]: 450 4.7.1 Client host rejected: cannot find your reverse hostname, [64.187.104.141];from<webmaster@CorrectCraftFan.com> to=<my@emailaddress.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<CorrectCraftFan.com> see, when you do a nslookup on 64.187.104.141 it should come back with correctcraftfan.com but instead it doesn't come back. the ip probably needs a PTR record added in DNS. |

Please explain how changing the platform alters the speed of the site. Just curious. |

man, this is a great website and one of my favorites, but you need to get this site ported to a unix/linux server. it's dog and i have been getting a lot of mssql errors when searching the forums.
