The nightmare of server migration

Posted Oct 2, 2009 4:41:59 PM

Well this week began "re-registration" week at Clarkson, where they randomly and repeatedly delete MAC addresses from your NetReg registration list and make your life miserable.

I leased a VPS from SliceHost and am in the process of moving all my sites there -- which is turning into quite the process... I've decided to clean things up a lot to make my life easier, as well.

Unfortunately, that means my websites are only partially up at the moment... please bear with me as I work through this. It's difficult to migrate off a server, when you can only access it intermittently :-\.

Meantime, I'd like to say "Thanks, OIT, for creating yet another debacle that just makes our lives more difficult. Aren't you supposed to support the faculty and staff? What the hell?"
