Server upgrade, possible service interruption 2007-08-07 08:54 pm We will be performing planned system maintenance activities in the afternoon (EDT) on Wednesday, 8 August 2007. If all goes well, this event should be transparent for most users. However, some loss of service is possible throughout the afternoon, especially with regard to the newsgroups. If there are newsgroup issues, I will post more details here when I know them.Regards,Eric,http://noteworthysoftware.com Quote Selected

Re: Server upgrade, possible service interruption Reply #5 – 2007-08-28 07:09 pm This reminds me to share my experiences over the past week. My ISP crashed its email server on Wednesday, and its backup system went down too, so I no email for a few days. They replaced the hardware and restored service late Friday, but by Saturday night were having problems again. By Sunday, things were almost back to normal (some tweaking needed to be done). So they're up and running, until...Sunday night, someone tried to steal the cable the company uses for cablevision service to my community, and we lost all email service again, but also all internet service and all television.I feel very sorry for the people working there. Around here in recent years, we have had a lot of metal thefts. Apparently there's very high demand in China. Thieves will climb utility poles to cut the wire, and have been known to break into the electrical transformer cabinets in housing subdivisions. For the few dollars they can make, there's a heck of a lot of trouble caused. And risk. One or two have been electrocuted. Fatally. Quote Selected
