Short notice: upgrading the server
I'm upgrading the server. Hope I don't break anything.

Re: Ooh..sounds like fun.
Meh. I've been putting it off for a loooooooooong time. I've wanted to do it for a while, too. Things have just gotten to the point where it's no longer worth my time *not* doing it. I've already made a backup of the database (as of immediately after I made my original post in this thread.) Should anything go pear-shaped, we're going to lose any posts after that one.

Bye-bye half-a-year uptime. Time to reboot for new kernel. Probably only the first of many I'm about to get.......

Re: Ooh..sounds like fun.
Damn. Now I remember why I reboot so infrequently.
The stupid system sits there waiting for me to manually enter my SSL Passphrase so I can operate my https site (required for Mavelous Web Design). So I have to run upstairs and hook up a monitor and keyboard...... Sheesh.

Re: Ooh..sounds like fun.
Hey gracious host.
When you make a Cert and Key set... make is passphraseless.
Its how the big houses do it. Since the key is supposed to be in an immutable location.
Regen the thing and make it passphraseless.
