Eternal thanks always belongs with Brian and the SOEST for hosting the HOSEF server. It would be an oversight not to share this Aloha with Kevin McCarthy who took the greatest initiatives for the HOSEF mirror by requesting Arch, donating drives, and then doing some of the heavy lifting to get us official with Arch, Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, and FreeBSD. Julian Yap has remained an admin, too - even with the competition of career, matrimony, and fatherhood.
Two summers ago I replaced the hardware with a Tyan mobo, PIII chipset, that was donated to us by local FreeBSD guru, Art Neilson. There is an identical backup, sans drives, in my possession. Touchwood, this revision is still kicking. Perhaps the one-week burn in time in my Ewa garage, in Summer, shook it all out. The mirror is operating on a degraded RAID1 array that I funded along with Kevin. It is operated by a SuperMicro 8-port SATA controller that I purchased to facilitate growth and maintenance. There is space for extra drives. I keep up the management and oversight of our Debian based OS, but I continue to look for an on-island soul who cares enough for the mirror to keep it up. I am now very far away, but, I love the mirror too much to let it perish. There are too many people who count on it. --scott On Fri, Jun 17, 2011 at 5:18 AM, Jason Axelson <bostonvaul...@gmail.com>wrote: > And Arch too! > > Thanks Brian! > > Jason > > On Thu, Jun 16, 2011 at 3:02 PM, Jeff Mings <je...@lava.net> wrote: > > > Just wanted to say that I really appreciate having the HOSEF mirrors - > > makes keeping up with Ubuntu and CentOS much easier. > > > > Your efforts are appreciated, Brian. > > > > Aloha > > > > > > On 06/16/2011 11:15 AM, Brian Chee wrote: > > > >> So while this doesn't technically affect the HOSEF server, I thought I'd > >> give you folks a warning that my lab firewall(s) and SSL-VPN(s) are > >> getting > >> upgraded today around 4pm HST...so while it shouldn't affect HOSEF, it > >> might > >> considering the massive arp table changes during this upgrade.
