The last week or so has been hectic and we appreciate the warm welcome many of you have given us as the new team. We’d also like to extend our mutual thanks to those of you who have been patient with issues that have been inherited.

There is still a question mark over those of you who purchased “lifetime hosting” plans roughly 13 months ago. We have been promising a proper reponse to this issue for a week and I want you to know that we’re doing everything we can to have a satisfactory answer as soon as possible.

New Payment Option: 

We now offer non-paypal credit card payment of your invoices via the client billing area. Many of you were asking if this would be introduced so it was clearly a good option to provide. Simply log in to your billing area and select the CC single or CC payment option.

New Server:

A dual core, dual opteron server has joined Colorteck as the latest expansion to the network. “Plato” has twin 320GB SATA II HDD and is supported by RAID. Truly a beast, we have already had fights between staff as to who gets to put their own websites on it too.

As always if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us via emailing helpdesk@colorteck.com or submitting a ticket via the support site.

To read more about the new server and to see if your account is affected, please visit this forum thread.

Colorteck is pleased to announce that our latest and greatest web server is now online. Featuring Dual Xeon 3.2Ghz processors, 4GB of RAM and over 800GB of storage space options, this server is smoking hot.

Best of all, if you get on the server early, you’ll experience almost all the benefits of a dedicated server without have to pay for one!

In order to celebrate the new server, we’re currently offering a Buy 1 Year, Get the 2nd Year free promotion for our $6.95/month Teck Plan. This offer is only good through October 31st so make sure to hurry. In order to qualify, you must pre-pay for an entire year in advance ($69.95).

DataCenter

We will be taking down one of our DNS servers and the Colorteck Server on 08/02/06 at 8:00am CST to move the power back over to the remote reboot switch. We will take the system down properly. This maintenance should last about 1 hour. For those of you that have not added the new name servers your web site will go down. Please make sure your name servers for your domains look exactly like this. All four need to be added.

ns1.colorteckstatus.com
ns2.colorteckstatus.com
ns3.colorteck.com
ns4.colorteck.com

Please be advised there will be no support tickets answered or emails answered for a one hour period.
If you are only using ns3 & ns4 your web site will go down during the repair. If you are using all four name servers you will stay up and running and avoid any issues.
