Sorry for the recent downtime
« on: January 26, 2010, 05:55:57 pm »
I apologize for the recent brief downtime. We had some widespread 'blinking' of the grid here in the Pacific Northwest today and of course - that would be the perfect time to find out the UPS battery is weak.  ::)

One quick trip down to the local tech store and one big honking new APC unit later, everything is well again. These are the times that make me glad I RELIGIOUSLY run nightly off-site backups of ANYTHING I even remotely care about keeping (this includes full server configs). Word to the wise and all that...

Oh yeah, we use the Tarsnap service run by the FreeBSD Security Officer, if anyone is interested. Crazy efficient and uber secure offsite encrypted backups. Keep up the great work Colin!
