OiNK Moves its Domain to the Democratic Republic of the Congo

DNS issues force the venerated BitTorrent tracker site’s admin to move it from UK shores and to it’s new home on the African continent.

As many of you know the celebrated BitTorrent site Oink, aka the “Pink Palace,” has experiencing some DNS issues as of late and it seems the headache has grown tiresome enough to pick its bags and change the domain address.

In a post on the HP of Oink it reads as follows:

Because of the recent DNS issues, and the undesirable solution to fix them, we are changing the site’s name from OiNK.me.uk to OiNK.cd

The OiNK.me.uk domain will soon cease to function, and a full changeover will happen shortly. Please update your bookmarks.

Please also re-download any torrents you may have in your clients in order to update the tracker address. Torrents downloaded from now on will contain 2 tracker addresses, the new OiNK.cd domain, and the tracker’s IP address, which should make any future DNS issues less serious. They will also contain the site’s IP address in the torrent comment field, in case of future problems. If you have applied the hosts file fix, you won’t need to re-download the torrents.

Sorry about the inconvenience, but we deem the name change necessary for the continuation of the site.

Let’s just hope this solves the problem and we all can go on enjoying the beauty that is the “Pink Palace.”

I've been interested in P2P since the early, high-flying days of Napster and KaZaA. I believe that analog copyright laws are ill-suited to the digital age, and that art and culture shouldn't be subject to the whims of international entertainment industry conglomerates. Twitter | Google Plus

@napho Yeah until they toss a half mil or so their way. :(

The Congo will certainly stand firm against American pressure. *rolling eyes*
