Forum temporarily relocated to backup server

Unread post by xantia_v6 »

I have relocated this forum to our backup server to enable a clean reinstall of the operating system on the main server. This is necessary due to a subtle problem with the networking configuration which I have been unable to track down.

If I have done it correctly, there should be no visible change to operation, but let me know here if you see anything notable.

My spelling is OK, I just don't bother typing all the letters in the right order.

The forum is not NOW back running on its proper server, I hope with slightly improved performance.

I read it and didn't even notice the typo... I read it as 'now' and not as 'not' ;)

I have just fixed a problem with the server email configuration which was causing outgoing emails to be dropped. This problem has been in effect since sunday, and forum notifications from that period (except account activation notifications) will not be resent.

The email system is now working normally again. I apologise for this inconvenience.
