Who is MR's webhost?

[NusuniAdmin]

Who is MR's webhost. I have been curious about this for some time. Or do yall (arn or whoever) host it on their own server?

i wonder too...it always says something like "contacting host tribalfusion.com" but that may be like the ads or something cause i checked out their website and they sound like an ad company.

I bet its hosted on a Quadra 630 in one of the mod's basement.

It's a Linux (I think) server co-loc'd somewhere, not sure where.

IP block:
Hurricane Electric HURRICANE-4 (NET-64-62-128-0-1)
64.62.128.0 - 64.62.255.255
Fremont Data Center HURRICANE-CE0030-340 (NET-64-62-137-0-1)
64.62.137.0 - 64.62.137.255

This would be my guess > http://www.fateback.com/data-center/fremont-california/

Edit > ultraservers.net also has the same path so I am not sure. Really if it is in a data center there could be several hosts operating within it.

ultraservers.net is owned by fastservers.net/powersurge.net so yeah my bet is now on fastservers.net

Just in case you thought that was clear, powersurge and fastservers are separate companies now.

Or better yet, an OLD school Mac Plus like this site:

yeah iirc, arn mentioned in the macrumors irc channel that his host was fastservers.net.
