Live again...

It seems to have propagated rather quickly. I suspect some web-caching devices may take longer, but the three different external sites I have tried all show it as up and visible. That’s rather encouraging really. For those looking for a web host, I have managed to find a couple of Canadian ones that have reasonable rates. I’ll post some info later, as I’d like to pull a couple of sites I have in the US back to Canada.

Website may be down in the near future...

I’m, changing ISPs and as a result, the site may end up down while I get everything fixed up. Hopefully the changes will occur overnight and it will be quick and dirty, but I am not sure how long it will take for the changes to propagate. The short answer is that I’m expecting it all to be transparent, but you never know.

Course Notes in Forums

I’ve been writing up detailed notes for the course and placing them in the Forums under Initial Configuration ( http://no.such.link/forums/?vasthtmlaction=viewforum&f=1.0). I have just finished adding a complete list of all packages installed along with a brief description for each. Next I’ll be performing a detailed descriptions of all the services installed along with instructions for turning specific services on or off based on Scott’s list. This site once had a forum, but it no longer exists.
