Hardcode your Windows 'hosts' file with GAW IP address. - The Great Awakening

Hardcode your Windows 'hosts' file with GAW IP address.

Updated with MAC steps at the bottom.

Update #2: I want to add that this should only be used temporarily. In the event GAW ever changes their IP address you will need to update your hosts file with the new IP.

Update #3: Added authentication.win record

Hi frens,

Some asked me to make a thread about this directly so that it could be stickied. Mods, if you deem this sticky-worthy go ahead.

For Windows:

located in windows\system32\drivers\etc

there contains a file simply named 'hosts'

copy this file to your desktop

edit it with notepad

at the bottom of the file add these two lines exactly

172.67.145.123 greatawakening.win

104.21.87.229 authentication.win

save the file (to your desktop) - ensure that windows does not add a .txt extension to this file. Then drag and drop it into your windows\system32\drivers\etc folder. Yes on the overwrite.

This will allow you to be able to access GAW even if worldwide DNS ceases to exist.

I would not recommend leaving this configured forever, incase GAW changes IP addresses or anything. But knowing how to do it for temporary purposes is a good idea.

For MAC:

open a terminal

type

Type sudo nano /etc/hosts and press Return

Enter your admin password and press Return

Using the "Nano" text editor can be a bit hard.. but follow these simple steps:

Use the Return key to create some space below the existing records

Input the IP address:

172.67.145.123

Press the Tab key

Enter the domain name:

greatawakening.win

Press the Enter key to start a new line

Input the IP address:

104.21.87.229

Press the Tab key

Enter the domain name:

authentication.win

Save the file by pressing Ctrl + O

Exit with Ctrl + X

The worst is Gnome. I had Ubuntu Mate on my Pi3 and when I got Pi4, I installed Ubuntu only to realize that it was Gnome, which is gayer than a smartphone. So instead I went with Raspbian. My friend in AZ is a Unix/Linux admin, but he only remotes into the servers and is ignorant about the GUIs. I once booted from an install disc of Mint Cinnamon and was able to do a Hangouts vidchat with him and he did not expect that this was possible. In my experience, even for more troublesome stuff, I can just look up online what I need to do and just type the commands in Terminal without even knowing what they do and I can do stuff that way.
