Folks.... I will be taking the f500 list server and web site down tomorrow for several hours. I'm going to be replacing the rather old, crusty server that it's been running on for the past few years with a bright, shiny, new HP Proliant DL380.
I will shut down the list server and web server tomorrow morning. New messages to the list will queue up and be delivered once the new server is online. There is a lot of data transfer to do to move everything onto the new platform, which will probably take me most of the day to complete. If all goes well, I'll have the new server back online sometime in the late afternoon. Please bear with me... This is a BIG upgrade. Not only are we getting new hardware, we're going to a new operating system, lots of updates to various application level software, and an entirely new spam / virus filter system. The spam / virus filtering stuff is the real reason for the upgrade. That's why I run the list server in the first place - it's a test bed for the the anti-spam / anti-virus technology that I develop before installing it for paying customers. You guys are my crash test dummies. :-) There are bound to be a hiccup or two along the way, but hopefully nothing that'll be visible to you subscribers. ---------- Eric D Christensen Proadmin, Inc. _______________________________________________ F500 mailing list - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change options please visit: http://f500.org/mailman/listinfo/f500 *** Please, DO NOT send unsubscribe requests to the mailing list! ***
