New IP Address

Bob Armstrong wrote: My new IP address is 82.8.22.230 Ok, done. I'll keep chrissie.homelinux.net up to date if that helps. Unfortunately neither my router nor Multinet can use DNS to generate rules - the IP has to be put in manually. Yes, I know that about multinet, annoying isn't it! Just to give advance warning, I'll be away from the 20th to the 26th July, so Zarqon will be offline then too. If the weather stays as it is, he will be back on soon after I get back though.

New IP Address

by christine.caulfield＠googlemail.com

Sorry folks, my IP address changed again. I just powered up Zarqon (we're having a cold summer here!) and it's not talking to anything. My new IP address is 82.8.22.230 I'll keep chrissie.homelinux.net up to date if that helps. If you're using home.tykepenguin.com then be aware that I'm going to let it expire in October. So it'll probably end up as a porn site ;-) -- Chrissie

Howling VAX

This is actually the second time I've had this problem, the last time as I recall, after being down for a few months, I tried upgrading to either my Model 60 or Model 90, only to discover it wouldn't really fit, AND than the VLC had stopped howling. I really need to figure out some kind of noise enclosure for our Dining Room that will allow proper cooling of the hardware! I'm getting sick of the noise that the two 3-drive JBOD boxes with 10,000RPM SCSI drives make, and the XP1000 they're connected to is just about as noisy. :^( The fact that she hasn't complained about the noise goes to show just how understanding of a wife I have!

Howling VAX

by healyzh＠aracnet.com

I brought PDXVAX up just now to discover two different problems, one is that bearings are acting up on one or more of the fans for my VAXstation 4000/vlc, the other is that I need to renew my VAX Hobbyist licenses, as I need a new Multinet license. So, PDXVAX is down for the time being, and I'm starting to wonder about keeping MONK running. I really hate to say this, but it was so nice and quite in our dining room without any VMS boxes running. I hate the idea, but it would be cooler, and quieter to move stuff over to a Mini-ITX box running some form of UNIX. Zane -- | Zane H.

PDXVAX and MONK down

by healyzh＠aracnet.com

Just a heads up, I'm down for bad weather, and have been since about 2-3am West Coast time. There is a good chance I won't be up until late Friday at the earliest. If Christine is down, this means the Multinet segment isn't talking to the rest of HECnet. Zane -- | Zane H.
