“Long way to go, and a short time to get there … ”
The move is over. [1]
tower is no longer doing much of anything, other than sitting there,
consuming the power of DialTone [2] and sending out a status message
(consisting of uptime and /proc/interrupts (since the timer interrupt is
nearing the 4 billion mark)) once an hour until such time as the power is cut
off.
As of right now:
> [root]tower:/root>uptime
> 10:43pm up 443 days, 22:57, 2 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
> [root]tower:/root>
>
Our new server, swift (so named because we had to swiftly set the thing up)
is quite nice—modern hardware instead of a hand-me-down 486, hosted at
FastColo.net [3], a local company in Boca Raton [4] (and run by a good friend
of mine).
I'll have more details about the move later. Right now it's Miller Time! [5]™
