Server is back online
2005/07/15 filed under /personalNot too long ago, I proudly mentioned the uptime my server had. Almost a full year and no problems, God bless FreeBSD.
The statistics gave me confidence. I could leave it alone for three weeks, right? Well, ermm, no. Not even two days after I stepped on the plane to Jakarta, Indonesia, my server crashed. Of course I rather see my server crash, than the airplane, but still it sucked pretty bad, for I couldn't update my blog; couldn't email etc. etc.
After I came home, I hoped the server would just have suffered a power failure and was hanging on the BIOS or something, but no. It didn't do anything!
The inspection I carried out on it, made me believe the motherboard was to blame and had died on me (missed me, I bet! ;) Easiest thing: get a new one, a new processor, a new harddrive and try all over.
So, I present to you: the new server! ... please be gentle
