Recent News:
Jan 29th: We're moving servers and services out of Vancouver to Victoria.
This is supposed to be mostly "invisible" to you (the site visitor), but
we are human. If you run into anything broken, please let us know!
12:47 pm pacific time. We need to shutdown our main server for a
few minutes to get a clean transition. This will cause strange "proxy error"
messages for folks trying to register/renewal/manage domains or get
to the my account area. Sorry for the inconvenience. This should not
take more than 20 minutes. 13:04pm -- this is done.
Jan 18th: Yes, we too are concerned about
stopping SOPA.

Canadians.
March 2010: Our .CA domain management system can now set IPv6 addresses
for .CA NameServers (e.g. glue records). (Our .com wholesale supplier
still doesn't support IPv6, so it is just .CA for now. )
-
April/May 2009: We're actively looking to help clients convert from
IP based webhosting accounts to name based accounts. This will
save clients some money, and help us close out one of our colo
locations, which will help us reduce our bandwidth costs (a
savings we plan to pass on).
-
March 2009: We've changed the pricing on our "other than .CA"
registrations (.ca's were already pretty competitive). Registry
prices for .com domains are actually going up, but we're getting
some volume discounts from OpenSRS. Keep in mind that all our
registrations include domain-dns.com credits.

Note: Many of the local ISPS are blocking connections
to SMTP servers outside of their network. If this affects you
(e.g. you're having trouble sending mail), you may need to change
your email client to use the MSA port (587) instead of
the SMTP port. See
http://baremetal.com/support/email_msa.html for more details.
