New box domaine

Post by Eric Walch »

I just wanted to enter my box account and noticed it didn't recognised the entry page to auto fill-in my password.

It seems that the domain name has changed from 'www.box.net' into 'www.box.com'. I just checked: all existing links in the wiki are wrong now but are automatically redirected to the new url. If that new url stays permanent, all wiki links probably should get edited in future for faster access to downloads.

It is permanent!

I don't suppose the Dylan Smith mentioned there is Winston... is it?

Just saw that you have been on a massive update spree, thanks for that!

Following Eric Walch's massive updating spree, I've just checked the wiki and found half a dozen or so missed changes, and done the changes. There are some others, but they are on old, unused pages.

All of mine should also now be pointing at .com rather than .net (again if any aren't please let me know).

I thought that it would just redirect, they still "own" the net domain. U
