Okay! It’s bee a while and not much new has been happening.

I’m settling into my new hours at work well. For those of you who miss me, I do spologize, but working nights I can’t answer my phone or get back to you right away. Let me know if I can call you back around 11:30 PM (when I get out of work). Otherwise, It’s great to not have to worry about getting home by 9PM on Saturday nights!

I’m almost done repairing my server. All thats left is to do some configurations and to rebuild my databases. It will take some time, but I should be ready to return the server to the hosting company by this weekend. I may relocate to a local hosting provider, but we’ll see… ‘least my site will be back up soon.

Well, my website…correction, ALL of my websites are down. I havent lost the data yet, but the server that hosted them all is screwed up. I have to rebuild the thing from scratch now. Wish me luck…

Another problem, The server won’t recognise the 60 GB drive I got so I need to do some massive maintenance on it. I might even just trash my 20GB desktop PC to swap the drives and I’ll use the 60 GB for network storage at my house…

I’ll troubleshoot the server a bit more tomorrow, and if I can’t get it up and running with in a reasonable amount of time I’ll swap drives with my desktop. Hell, I havent installed anything other than Mozilla and AIM on it yet so I might as well. Maybe even install a server OS on it and make a domain controller/file server out of it. I’ve been dying to try out Windows Server 2003 anyways 🙂

Now, just deciding between Redhat 9, Fedora 3 or Free BSD for the server itself… Any suggestions?
