Web services on jmac.org are hosed. I have a plan for fixing it, which I will start immediately and then continue as time permits; I'm in the midst of some time-sensitive Appleseed work that is of greater priority. I will post again with further status updates, as they come along. Things should be permanently better before next weekend.

Part of my plan involves migrating hosts once again, this time moving from tektonic.net to linode.com. Stating here that I am very impressed with Linode's service, which Planbeast now uses, and disappointed with Tektonic's. The latter was OK when I started using it last year, but either it's gone downhill fast or I was just lucky for a while. I have lately found its service unreliable, its online diagnostic tools faulty, and its customer service quite lacking. Bummer.

thanks for the (second) heads up on tektonic, this time with slightly more info as to reason of suckage.

Will consider a move myself, but the rate is still a good one and I've still had reasonable luck. At least all eggs are not in one basket, and this is a plus.

That said, if there's something you need on an actual physical server, I still have one of those. (DNS perhaps? ) *shrug*
