Server migration
We have finally migrated to our new server! This hardware replacement was long due. The old one (a dual Intel PIII-700 with 1Gb of memory) started to show some hardware and performance problems. Everything should be fast and smooth again 
Because of this migration this weblog and my pet project TheMirror have been offline for about a day.
On the old server we used ispworks to manage virtual hosts, but the project didn’t have an update since december 2003. We now use ispconfig to manage apache virtual hosts, ftp accounts, email accounts, mysql databases, dns stuff, bandwith limits, quota’s, you name it. It features a nice self-service panel on which users can reset their password and configure some basic spamassassin settings. So far I’m very satisfied.
I would like to express my gratitude towards Thijs, Johannes and Jacob for preparing and doing the actual migration. Unfortunately I didn’t have much spare time to help out. Thanks guys!
I would also like to thank our end users for the generous donations which made it possible to actually buy the new hardware.
