Down for the Count

Server Status: Down (till 5/29/2005)

Server Notes
Motoko's hard disk has begun to corrupt critical system files. What this means is I can no longer delay on replacing her gimpped hard drive. I've run the appropriate filesystem repair tools on the /home directory (where 90% of your guy's stuff is held) and other than spoony's mailbox and my files, I think everything is okay. So I should be able to recover all of your user data. However, this is the good news. The bad news is that Motoko will be offline for a week while she undergoes some critical repairs. The RAID 1 experiment will be repeated during this time period, though it will be done using software RAID rather than Motoko's failed hardware one. Also, the basic OS will be reinstalled from a fresh copy, though all software settings will be recovered if possible from the damaged drive.

In the meantime, Lumpy will be servicing NQIG's DNS and E-Mail accounts (though only acting as a proxy cache for mail.) Lumpy has been checked and is functioning properly. When Motoko comes back online (hopefully sooner than the 29th, but I gave that time for safety) all cached E-Mails will be delivered to the appropriate accounts.

I appologise for the inconvienience.

Guess the laptop will have to wait. *sigh*
