nope, just dead

After much celebration last week at the fact that I was to become a Speakeasy customer, it turns out that I'm, well, not. Apparently the loop on which I'll be living just doesn't support DSL, period, so I'm going to have to get a cable modem instead.

This is good and bad. Good because now I'll actually have cable instead of stealing it, and bad because I won't have a static IP at home.

ServerPronto to the rescue—I now have a dedicated machine at a CoLo (dedicated means I'm basically renting an entire machine plus network from them, so I'm root and they're not). This has the additional benefit of letting me transition pretty much seamlessly from my current situation without any downtime. I just have to get everything working on that machine first.

To do:

  • kernel
  • dns
  • mysql
  • sendmail
  • imap
  • apache2
  • svn
  • horde2
  • cypherpunks
  • ???
  • profit
