Both the website and the mailing lists are now on the new OCLUG
server, so if that connectivity is lost, then everything goes to
hell  ;)

As it turns out, the problem was not with the OCLUG server
itself, but with the network connection upstream, so there's not
much to be done about that except wait things out in this case.

But you are right, we were offline for about 24 hours which is
never a happy thing.  FWIW, our network setup will (hopefully :)
become more reliable once we switch over to more local IP's,
which I'm told is supposed to happen sometime 'real soon now'
:)

Never fear - we have backups :)  I will definitely rest a little
easier though once the IP changes I mentioned above go into
effect.

Cheers,
Raymond
