Board will be Down Briefly for Server Upgrade

[larryhead]

Well, the time has come to upgrade a few things on the server since that hasn't been done in a long time. We'll be migrating everything this morning to a new server and hopefully the downtime will be kept to a minimum, but I just wanted to give everyone here a heads up.

Thanks for your understanding. :)

OK, we are back up. That was rather difficult! :disbelief:

Please let me know if you see anything bizarre or if the board is not acting normally, thanks.

In case anyone cares we upgraded everything on server (freebsd, apache, php, perl, etc.). Now we are running the latest and greatest :)

[larryhead]

you've been using it on this site for a few years now :D


it's still good for servers.. i probably wouldn't use it on my desktop though.
