I’ve turned off pretty permalinks. This means no .htaccess with mod_rewrite, which means I can move this vhost to lighty/php-fcgi easily. Should be a transparent change to all of you out there in audience-land, but it means things will be Harder, Faster, Stronger, Better on this end. Which is good. This also means any links or bookmarks you may have are now broken.
Update: Moved. What is this, Staples? Seriously dudes, lighty is the way to go.
I’ve had some downtime recently. First, DNS problems – ZoneEdit’s nameservers are apparently under attack. One has been nullrouted by the ISP for a while, they’re working on it. The other goes down occasionally… and when they’re both down, no DNS for us. With a 2H time to live, you really feel that.
Also, I had to move this machine from a campus office VLAN to Resnet in my dorm room. They seem to be blocking all incoming traffic from half the world. So… anyone on campus, or at Yale, UC Davis, or Charter Cable in SLO county can get to the machine; but Roadrunner in Fullerton, SBC (i think?) in La Jolla, Mindspring/Earthlink DSL, Sprint in the bay area, and the EVDB office cannot. I’ve already poked Resnet about this, and I really really hope to have it resolved before break.
Update: Upgraded the poke to a sharp jab in the ribs with a “When can I expect a response on this issue?” email. If they haven’t replied by, oh, noon Thursday, I’m going to roll up in to APM and lay about with a broadsword until I gets me some answers. Or something. I heard that someplace…
