Hope nobody noticed but we (meaing my server) locked up. I've been having problems with this server (worst one I've ever built btw). I think it's the motherboard.

I've never used a Soyo board before and probably never again. Going to be looking to put a new MB in it.

It's *been* locking up about ever 15 days unless I reboot it, however today it locked up after only a few days <sigh> sorry if anyone saw/felt the downtime

saw it....

felt it.............

didnt like it...............

reminded me of FA................

thanks for acknowledging................

well I'm trying to "bandaid" it by rebooting the box fairly often, however this is gay because my last server could stay up as long as it had power (and about 30 minutes after thanks to my UPS) but this one is different.

i'm probably going to just build a new one from scratch and copy over this stuff and swap them out.

you're gonna need to........ (im afraid)



this site is in its infancy, and alreaddy has a better base of topics started......

And I was just commenting on FA how I'd hate it if both forums were to go down at the same time. What rotten luck! I was starting to shake.

Look, it really sucks to come here and have the site be down (esp. as addicted to it as some of us have become) but since it is free and darn near priceless IMO, I would never seriously complain. As a matter of fact, I'm ecstatic that you have created this home for us. Thanks!

Obviously I'm having some sort of hardware problem. I am going to work to fix it as soon as possible.

In the mean time, I've setup a cron job to reboot the server every morning at 4am. Hopefully this will get me through until I can fix this **** problem.

Sorry guys...

No problem. I used the opportunity to get a little advertising in on FA by posting that we were down.

 

[dmtalon]

I'm not sure that's exactly the kind of advertising we would want though

It was a chance to get the InfinitiFX.org on the front page of FA. Like Janet Jackson, at this point we want to focus attention on ourselves. I think more positive than negative will come out of it. If not, my bad
