Down Due to Constuction

Server Status: Down (Backup Server UP)

Server Notes
Motoko is currently offline due to continued work on the power systems in the server's location. Lumpy, however, has been setup, and barring any unpleasentries, should be acting right now as an SMTP store-and-forward system. So if the gods of DNS aren't out to get me (As they usually are...) no email should get lost. However, this means that all other services (Web sites, forums, and the webmail interface) are offline. (The webmail interface is not related to email reception, you may not be able to check your e-mail, but you are getting it.)

If anyone has any ideas how to use a redundant failover for machines on different subnets, I'd really appriciate that knowlege... It would allow for things like personal websites to continue functioning even though the master server is offline. Oh well... At least we have something out there catching our e-mail... And it's not like there's that many people on our site.
