nuxx.net
Making, baking, and (un-)breaking things in Southeast Michigan.

All, this isn’t all that important, but it looks like I’m going to be moving dingleberrypie.com out of it’s current place and into a full-out colocated server. As part of this, I need to get the server built, configured, secured, etc. So, for a while, dingleberrypie.com will be down. That means no recipes, photo galleries, etc. I’ve also got a bunch of server-moving work ahead of me tonight.

Let’s see… The file/web server will get parted out to become the new colocated server and the file server. The firewall will be moving back to it’s old Gateway 2000 pizza box. Either a second pizza box or the file server will become the new file server, depending on if I can get an external SCSI enclosure or not.

These decisions will come tonight. :D I also need to play with using Depenguinator to set up a vinum-mirrored disk set, per ‘s recommendation. I’ve got it mostly working here under VMware, but Depenguinator doesn’t come with the vinum lkm, so I’ll have to get things working.

This should be a really, really interesting trip. But, with any luck, I’ll finally be running my own, legal, publically accessable web/mail server.

      Nope, not at all. I’m just sick of the instability of IP address, and I really would like to do things “right”. Colocation is going to cost me 2x what the hosting fees for nuxx.net (+4 others) are right now, but I think it’ll be worth it. I’m going to cobble together what hopefully will be a nice stable server and get it put somewhere.

      It’s time that I had a real server of my own.
