Posted: November 24, 2008	Welcome to int.dnr.alaska.gov! This week we are moving the primary DNR web site to new computer servers. The web address www.dnr.state.ak.us is also changing to http://dnr.alaska.gov (or http://www.dnr.alaska.gov). This web site address change reflects the gradual move of all State of Alaska web sites to the alaska.gov domain. For the internal web site, the web address www.dnr.state.ak.us/int is changing to http://int.dnr.alaska.gov. The old web site address www.dnr.state.ak.us will continue to work and be translated into the new web address automatically. Why are you changing computer servers? Our existing web servers are outdated. The newer software we need to accomplish our tasks will not work on the older web servers. We have used these servers for as long as we can. Why two different web site addresses, int.dnr.alaska.gov and dnr.alaska.gov? As part of the on-going improvement of State of Alaska computer security, the internal-only web site functions are being separated from the public web site functions. Each web site now has its own web address. How long will www.dnr.state.ak.us continue to work? We do not have a date set to retire this web site address. It will be run in conjunction with the dnr.alaska.gov web address for a number of years at a minimum. You can begin changing your browser bookmarks now to reflect the new web site address.
