Server upgrade

Sunday, June 26th, 2005

This server is currently being upgraded to the newest version of Debian GNU/Linux. Since this server isn’t overly important and I’m lazy, I haven’t take the time to create a staging environment to prepare the roll-out of the upgrade. Therefor, certain services may not be available until I get around to modifying the configuration. Most notably, the following things may not work properly:

Mail
Both receiving and sending of e-mail may not work correctly. The web-based email wont work for a small period of time. The mail server’s configuration has to be updated and perhaps the web-based email’s code will have to be adapted to the new version of PHP.

FTP
FTP services have not been suspended but may not work properly.

Websites
Due to the new version of the webserver (Apache 2.x) and the upgrade to PHP v5.x, certain websites or parts of websites may not work correctly. If you spot any non-working parts of websites, please notify me.

I’ll spend the rest of the day configuring and upgrading various programs and services. I hope to have at least the above mentioned services up by the end of the day.

Thank you for your patience.
