Hi All,
In an attempt to get our ssl certificates working again (for now), I've
made a small but significant change to UCC's DNS. We previously had
mooneye.ucc.gu.uwa.edu.au registered as our nameserver with ventraip (our
DNS registrar). Since UWA is going Cloudflare and are taking over control
of the ucc.gu.uwa.edu.au domain, they've changed the IP that
mooneye.ucc.gu.uwa.edu.au is pointing at, and broken a bunch of our
services in the process.
UCC still has control of ucc.asn.au and it still points at 130.95.13.9, so
I've changed our NS with ventraip to be mooneye.ucc.asn.au and updated the
zones on mooneye to reflect this. Hopefully this will keep things like
letsencrypt working for the ucc.asn.au domain for now.
This will of course only work until May 1st, at which point UWA will be
firewalling port 53 and we will be unable to run our own DNS server - by
that time we have to have either found a non-uwa internet connection, or
have ucc.asn.au coming in via a free cloudflare account. Yay.
