Back in service

Another temporary lapse of service

1 o'clock, July 9, 2004

Starting some time tomorrow, chrononaut.org and allstarstories.com will be down for 24-48 hours, while they move from San Francisco to Redwood City. (It’s a long story, and not very interesting. Thanks Brandon for the unpaid IT work, and thanks Rob for letting me dangle my server off your DSL line.

Not sure what'll happen to email during that period. It may disappear into Neverland. We'll see.

UPDATE: Rob wishes to point out that the server is in fact moving to Foster City. My mistake.

Comments

Looks like there is at least one secondary MX for chrononaut.org. Mail sent to that domain during the down time may be held at the secondary for subsequent delivery attempts -- I suppose 'how long' may depend on the secondary's configuration.

Anyway, good luck w/ the transition.

As it happens, the secondary's also moving at the same time. :( Part of the medium-term plan is to get a third (fourth?) party set up as secondary, but that will involve some bureaucracy.

You're totally welcome, dave. :) I do take exception to the malign implication that i live in redwood city, though. :)

Oops. Sorry about that — you know how hard it is to keep those Peninsula towns apart. :)

Indeed. It's actually San Mateo, not Foster City. :P Are you not changing the DNS record until Sunday, then?
