donations work through our ticket system and email for notifications. Neither of those systems are here on the development server.

 

I'll call the datacenter when I get home this afternoon.

did they give you any news?

The one thing about it being on the backup (development) server is that I can get to it at work. They blocked Greytalk a few months ago, talk about withdrawals. I don't post much but I love reading everything. But this url I can get to, they haven't blocked it...............yet.

 

Jeff, Thanks for all your work on this!!!! I am sure it is like having a second job (but no paycheck).

not good news at all!!

 

The short story is that we sold our IP space to our largest customer if he agreed to hold our servers for us until we could migrate them to our new location. After he sent us a hefty bill for collocation, that we agreed to pay, then he turned them off saying he needed the space for his own servers now.

 

This fiasco has temporarily placed me out of business.

 

So this means I need to find another colocation host for Greytalk. Who, What, When.. I don't know yet, but it will take a bit of time.

no worries, it will continue. It will just be slower for a bit. It is currently running from my home connection. I'll look into upgrading that tomorrow when the business department for my ISP is open. They do not have Fiber Optic home connections in my area yet. That would be the ideal solution. I'll also be looking for other colo facilities. I'll keep you posted when I know more.

One benefit from a slow connection, both yours and mine as our ISP is currently 'improving' their network, is I've finally noticed the 'Greytalk' background is an autostereogram. Normally it gets overlaid quickly by the text blocks and I've never paid it much attention. This time I was just staring vacantly at the screen waiting for the dang page to load, and sudenly there are floating 'Greytalks'. Or maybe it's the scotch.

Do we need to start a GT telethon?? Perhaps we can recruit Jerry Lewis-- or Jennifer and Judy can use their "in" with Johnny Depp??

 

Seriously, if it would help, we could start a donation drive, with any leftover going to the hounds.

 

We GTers are addicts!

get ahold of WebErika in Georgia -- she does something with web stuff, but I'm not sure what. She might be able to host for you, or point you towards a colo site, if she can't do it.

Jeff, PM me what you need and I will ask at work tomorrow. I work for an internet company so someone there might have some ideas or point you in the right direction.

I am hoping the server is moved tonight ;)

 

I need about 500GB of transfer per month (normal plan is ~1000gb)

2U storage space

Dual cat5 connections (1 for server, 1 for RAC)

 

then all the normal stuff.

UPS, AC, reverse DNS, etc
