Server Swap
2013-12-12
We're going to switch servers this afternoon. I'm going to shut the site down at noon or thereabouts.

Once we're back up mail sent to anyone @rantburg.com won't work. I'll get it up and running again as soon as I can.

Update: See tale of woe in comments.

#10  "I'm so ashamed..."

Of what, Fred? Bourbon and chocolate are nothing to be ashamed of (even if you skip the salmon).

Faithful Penelope, on the other hand....

#7  I am now drinking bourbon and eating chocolate peanut clusters. I'll find something else that's bad for me later and do it.

Thank you FP for the valiant effort, sorry to hear the project did not go as planned, may I suggest you try to console yourself with Bourbon Glazed Salmon plate. -- you do have the Bourbon and if you don't have a Salmon, any fish will probably do, even that that Gold fish in the tank over there ;-) ---(I'll find something else that's bad for me later and do it)

#6  It didn't work.

I'm going to have to try again next week. Faithful Penelope did everything to thwart me but catch fire and burn to a cinder. She absolutely refused to find the internet, even though she could find the network--just not as far as the name server.

I finally found myself repeating the same attempts to fix it and expecting different results. I unswapped and brought the silly thing home. On the way home, a lady driving behind me was rear-ended and almost had to buy me a new neck. I stopped at the grocery store and when I was unloading one of the bags broke.

I am now drinking bourbon and eating chocolate peanut clusters. I'll find something else that's bad for me later and do it. Then I'll start looking at all of Penelope's configuration files to see where I was stoopid.

#1  I am sure the site will be in much better operational status than all the kings men have done or ever will do over at the Obamacare site.
