FEATURED BREAKING CHANGE on GeeksWithBlogs for Custom Domains - IP Address Change Staff of Geeks, May 7, 2013 UPDATE 05/08/2013 - IP address of 208.67.195.49 is also affected. Hi Bloggers, I’m posting this urgent message because we've decided to move the hosting of GeeksWithBlogs to Azure. This means that any custom domain names that are currently pointing to the old IP address of 208.67.195.100 or to 208.67.195.49 will break around June 1st when we do the switchover. If you have a custom domain that points to GeeksWithBlogs, please change the DNS "A record" to point to the new Azure IP address of 168.62.30.182 as soon as possible. The GWB site is already live at this new IP address so you should continue ... Read More Share BREAKING CHANGE on GeeksWithBlogs for Custom Domains - IP Address Change 0 0 0
