Webserver relocated

sysadmins — Sat, 29 Jan 2011 21:56:03 +0000

Yesterday, the VEC Website working bee met to transition the VEC website over to Interface systems.
Interface, which recently merged with VEC, has servers graciously hosted on campus by ECS.

For those technical folk who are interested, we:

Updated the vec.org.nz ‘A’ DNS record to point to the Interface gateway.
Installed WordPress on the Interface webserver
Imported the WordPress data and theme from the old server to the new one.
Updated Interface‘s webserver to make vec.org.nz public

And here we are.

Here’s a link to one of our most memorable past events; a trip to the NZ Army’s virtual shooting range in Waiouru.

This is it; you made it. Behold the (new) official blog for the Victoria University of Wellington Engineering Club. This is the source for any goings-on in the VEC realm including, but far from limited to, future and past events, internal updates (read sqabbling) and academia-related information.

There are two other ways to keep yourself in the proverbial ‘loop’ – the VEC forum, and the VEC Facebook group. Both of these provide an opportunity for you to impart your $0.02 be it ideas for events, comments on what’s happening, or a cry for help (tech or course-related).

The Forum – The forum is hosted on the ECS servers as part of the ECS forums. It’s available to anyone with an ECS computing account (if you can log onto machines in the ECS labs, you’ve got one).
Facebook – www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=110116106756&ref=ts : VEC’s presence on the industry-standard procrastination tool. Feel free to post your pics of events and join in discussions.

Confused? Don’t be – any crucial updates will be posted to all three locations.

So stay posted and we’ll get you something juicy soon.
