Re: [AOLSERVER] aolserver.com website unavailable
Hi, I could offer a server currently running a mirror for open source projects (www.veidrodis.com sponsored by one of my customers) which isn't used very frequently (about 300 GB traffic per month), and 2 other live sites which will move to a different server anyway. The free resources (incl. a second ip) could be used to host aolserver.com . The mirror needs aolserver (4.5 with tcl8.4) incl. most common modules, postgres 7.4 to run an older openacs version (5.2), and daemontools. This software is installed already and can be used. Well there's a rub in it, i'm pretty busy and don't have the time to administrate another live system, so incase there is an interest in using the server, I would give you root access, and the administration of aolserver.com (inst. of software, keepalive etc.) will be up to you (or the person you name for this job ). So far that only the mirror is going to stay on that server there is no security issue from my side. Server details: Unlimited traffic, 100 MBit Network connection (fully switched) 2 GB RAM (about 0.8 GB are used) 160 GB RAID 0 (i would need about 100 GB for the mirror incl. what will be needed in the future) CPU : AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 148 , 2.2 GHz , 1 MB Cache OpenSUSE The host has a ISO 27001 certificate. They have 2 data centers in central europ (connected to different carriers), where the second is the fall back for the first, in tests they always have the higest availability of all tested hosts. I'm not sure if this is of any help to you, but especialy the new docs are in some cases extremly slow , which I hope is going to change. I case you are going to use the server, it'll be great if you put a sponsored by (or a like) link to the mirror. P.S.: I'm Bjoern Kiesbye, i worked on the nsjabber module some years ago, maybe some one remembers me. Currently I use aolserver just to run my customers sites. -Ursprüngliche Mitteilung- Von: Dossy Shiobara <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> An: AOLSERVER@LISTSERV.AOL.COM Verschickt: Di., 23.

Re: [AOLSERVER] aolserver.com website unavailable
I can second Rusty's offer - perhaps as a mirror I've got a box here in the UK asw20.qcode.co.uk that I can offer for hosting as long as the bandwidth requirements are reasonable.

I do AOLServer hosting, sort of. That is, I do AOLServer development and there aren't many people who do hosting, so I host all my customers myself. I'd be happy to donate space and bandwidth.
