A new home!
Yes – this is where any and all new content is going to be put – it largely looks the same, but the server is now somewhere on the eastern seaboard I believe ;^)
I’ve been running the site out of my basement for years – and the server has definitely seen better days. I think that its time to retire the P3-600 for good now. With the relocation, I didn’t manage to get the user accounts moved over – just the content (and still working on one of the photo galleries). The new home is with 1&1, who I have been using for approx. 4 years – for site development projects, domain parking and DNS services. I’ve been very happy with them. Anytime that I’ve had any issues, a phone call typically was all it took – and I think that in 4 years, I’ve had to call them once!
I suppose the server retiring is just one excuse for the move – the other is that I’m finding that I just don’t have the spare cycles to look after keeping the server current. I have upgraded the OS a few times – but the time needed to get a new server built and configured just doesn’t seem to be there. So, all my web and mail stuff is going to 1&1 now – and I’ll soon have one less computer running in the house!
