We are working on redefining our operations agreement with FurrIX.

The major changes are that we are giving them direct control of the network allocations that we obtained from the LIR, just makes more sense for the vIX to have their contact and operations information in the records for both the /44 and /48. Our operations information will be placed into the name servers in the form of PTR records.

The second change is that we are considering a server rebuild with FurrIX that would result in MFN’s service becoming a nested virtualization, the details on this are still being worked out as time permits.

We have gotten notification from the NOC of our networking provider that they have chosen not to renew the domains ‘birb.rest’ and ‘avali.rest’ due to cost reasons. These domains were only used for personal splash pages and a handful of user subdomains that have not seen lookups in some time. This should not affect our operations in any meaningful way.

We have also heard that FurrIX is dealing with a DNS amplification attack and will be temporarily dropping any IP address that cross over 40 request per second until the incoming traffic targeting a few specific domains has let up.

We are hosting a mess of a modded server for MNFurs. There may be bugs, crashes and other issues because there was a lot of mucking around to get this to actually run but it seems like everything is still intact..mostly anyway.

Riot the Yeen is the maintainer for this server, direct support questions at them.

Our terms of service have been updated to reflect that FurrIX is officially no longer a project of ours and that ownership of MFN has fully been transferred over to Ty Dwagon.

The focus for MFN is to shift to a game services and VPS provider for our community, members, guest and friends.
