C9 Downtime

I’ve got to patch a few things on Corridor9’s server, so expect a bit of downtime within the next couple of days. I’ve been putting off security issues for a while now as I try to nail down a backup method that works for me.

Today I tested a new method on my laptop that I got from the Gentoo Wiki that allows me to create a full backup with ease. In addition, the restore process is simple and fairly quick. I’m going to try and get a DVD reader, if not a DVD writer, to put into the server so I can do all my backups on one disk as opposed to spanning cd’s.

I’m not sure if I’ll start the upgrade tomorrow, but be prepared for downtime sometime during the next 5 days.
