I applied for Free Webdrive hosting (They provide it for non-profit sites on a case-by-case basis) and it got accepted. The provide unlimited space and bandwidth.

ImageF1 will be down from 11am to whenever the DNS propigates (as i am moving imagef1 to webdrive).

413058 2005-12-15 23:41:00 Why don't you just set the "A" record on the existing server to the IP of the new one?
That way you should not experience any down time.

I wanted to fully transfer the domain to webdrive so i could manage it properly.

While it is propagating, you can still have the "A" record pointing to the new IP so that there is no down time.

What happened to your free hosting for F1 users?

You can only do that if you have WHM, & I don’t have WHM or I would do that plus web drive uses a cluster of servers so is harder to find the correct ip address of the server the site is on.
