Subject: [USGENWEB-ALL-L] HARDWARE FAILURE (Wednesday ... )
To: USGENWEB-ALL-L(a)rootsweb.com
If I can get the proper parts on site by then, I will probably be
doing maintenance on the old Web server tomorrow (Wednesday)
morning, and that work *may* allow us to return to normal (so far
as the users can tell) operations then.
We had all the proper parts on hand by yesterday afternoon.
However, we've been having problems with AOL rejecting mail for all
its subscribers as "user unknown" and, as an added bonus, the folks
from whom we buy that our listservers' T1s have had a sick router in
their shop and our listservers have been sporadically losing their
Net connectivity.
So courtesy of AOL and our upstream, we've had really sick
listservers and we've been too busy to work on the Web server.
I hope to begin repair work on the old Web server this afternoon.
If we're lucky, we may be able to give the appearance of fully
normal operations by the end of the day (Wednesday).

If all goes well, we'll be cutting over onto the new server on
Thursday morning. Thursday will probably be a little rocky as we
fight fires and fix the odd bug.
The AOL/upstream problems affecting our listservers has delayed
this. We will possibly cut over onto the new server on Friday, but
we'll probably wait until after the weekend if the old server seems
to be operating adequately.
Wish me luck on the repair work ... (: What a week, B.
