Yup.  All's well again now, though.  We'll probably have to chuck some
more RAM into that box (or get another one) to handle the increasing
load.


Just curious Judd, what are the specs on that box?


I have some spare ram if it's an older box... I have 3x512M sticks of
PC133 SDRAM.


The problem with poor dragon (the name of the machine hosting all this
stuff) is that it's a rental box, so we can't stick in extra hardware,
we have to rent extra (expensive!) hardware.

Were is the box in some remote access or like in someone's home. Cause I
was thinking that it would be worth it to possibly buy a new box. If all
the arch members donate a few bucks we will have more than enough ( I
would but I would but my parents would never go for it). I made my
server for about $300. AMD Sempron(tm)  2200+, 512Ram, 80gig HD (which I
doubt an server need that big of harddrive might be wrong though, a
case, few fans, 420watt thermalate psu..

Well, you also have to take bandwidth into account - though the box
itself would be cheap, something like a home cable/dsl line isn't
going to cut it.

That why I asked were its hosted. If it a rented box in some remote location with the T1 line it probably not the best idea, but if the rented PI is is a local location like at a house you can just get the machine.
