Okay, the folks I'm currently with are getting really ancy about me getting off their server because of our bandwidth. So I'm gonna have to try to press this server change through very quickly in the next couple of days. The entire site, and especially the BB is gonna be down from time to time ... perhaps for an extended period as it takes me a long time to transfer stuff from this locale at 28.8

Sorry for any inconvenience, I'll try to make this happen just as quickly as I can!

That means that I might have to do something "constructive" while my students are eating their lunches. Lots of papers to grade

Aaahhh crap

Hey Bob

Any idea on what days and/or the time that is will occur?

You mean I might have to actually get back to work.

Ouch, I've done the 28.8 server switch. That was back when my site was 5mb, not the current 55mb. Don't forget to "backup" before you transfer those files! Good luck and see you on the other side...

Maybe Thursday eve ... moving the board itself will be the big issue.

First, I have to set up a whole new board, make sure everything works, then transfer all the old stuff over.

I will try to make things as quick and painless as possible, but you never know when you dive in. I had thought about having Infopop move it for me ... but it's over $600 to do so ... I think I'll try it for that

Good luck Bob, we'll alll be waiting to see you on the other side....

Hey Bob,

You might try copying the content and databases to a USB harddrive at the server (source) instead of relying on the wire to do so. Not sure how much data you are pushing, but that would expedite things. If your destination is a mirror copy of your source at an application level, it might be as easy as the USB copy. Of course there are a ton of intricacies, but thought you might find that useful. Is there really no highspeed connectivity in Forks (satellite, cable, something..) nutn

Do what you have to do, chances are it will make it better. Right?

so did you make the change if so i cant see any difference? this week the site has been reeeeeel slow for me to log on maybe just my side?

This site has always been slower than others for me but has taken a bit of patience this last week or so.Been on the puter way to much though might have somethingto do with it.
