FYI. DRN is moving to a new server! The migration will happen during the week of the 26th.

There is the possibility of some down time, this *SHOULD* be limited to less than 24 hours; if things go as they should, it should be no more than a couple hours. This effects all sites hosted on this box.

I'll post here the day before I flip the switch. :whoa:

Yeah, it must tough for you guys to orchestrate this change seriously! There's lots of stuff on DRN. I hope everything goes well. As for the avatar, I don't mind it getting thrown to garbage, I don't like it anymore. I'm currently trying to design another one. Thanks for the notice though :cool:

Okay, instead of pestering okie with a bunch of different questions. Why don't we just ask,

Are there any benefits/upgrades with the new server?

I know about that all to well. Trust me. I work a lot in system intergration (service provider phone stuff). Just one of the many hats that I wear.

Good luck Okie. I hope it goes smooth.
