Gay law concerns church schools

Oh yes, state funded schools should be exempt from laws that seek to stop hatred shouldn't they. Fucking cunts...

Lazy Saturday photos

Some photos I took a couple of weeks ago. They're all from the woodland next to where we live.

Done!

The server move is now complete. Actually, it was all up and running by 1030 this morning thanks to a very good friend from Cerberus Networks who are now doing the hosting.

Moving

 Purple is moving to a new data centre this weekend. As part of this, its IP address is changing.

 In general, there’s nothing you need to do, unless you manage your own DNS records and point your entries at purple via an A record (IP address). In an ideal world, you should CNAME your entries to “purple.alexlomas.com” however, if you need to create an A record, please now point it at 195.167.185.170

The DNS entry for purple.alexlomas.com will be updated tonight and the server move itself will take place from about 0800 tomorrow morning, finishing by midday at the latest. It can take up to 24 hours for cached DNS entries to reflect these changes.

 This should hopefully be the last move for some time and will bring better speed and reliability.

Secure-tastic

I've now managed to get TLS working for both SMTP & IMAP, and after a protracted battle, SSL on Apache working.

Go me.

As if it wasn't enough to taunt us with the giant man-sized posters of boy flesh on the underground, they make it available to download as well.

Server Move

Having just had a three hour outage on my ADSL line this morning, it comes as good news that my server should be on the move come Monday.

Of course, this will mean an extended outage for the duration of the physical move and also whilst DNS catches up on the change of IP address.

More details on the day of the move.
