We have been experiencing issues with our ISP COMCAST thus the downtime and interruptions randomly. They have replaced the cables and the modem but we are still randomly having some issues. We will continue to work on it and hopefully find the problem soon.

On another note I have been upgrading the host OS for the web servers and mail servers etc to the most current version of CENTOS in this process I have also tried to simplify things a bit in the process. This in in tailed moving websites to a single web server and moving the databases to a single server etc. Hopefully this will improve the performance and quality of the hosting.

On this subject of hosting I would like to remind everyone that I do this free of charge to all but a few websites (Of which I have not received any payment for quite some time mostly my own lack of followup) and thus I am not able to maintain a %99.9 up time so I ask for your understanding during troubled times. I will do my best to maintain up time to the highest level possible.

Thank you for your understanding and remember to please try and keep a copy of you sites and stored data. I do backups but a copy of your own will insure more safety from losing it.

System Migration

Over the last few months we have been working on a migration of the server to a virtual server configuration. This has been done in order to reduce the amount of resource usage. We have been able to condense 4 servers into one server eventually doping the number of servers to 2 from 6. SO over the last few months you might have experienced interruptions and such. The majority of the migration has been completed so please let us know if you are experiencing any issues.

Sincerely,

Sorry for the interruptions this morning with web and mail. I had to finish the hard drive replacement process which was to move things back off the temporary drive to permanent drives. This took a bit longer than expected.
