Full story:

After tearing around the English countryside in search of wholesale
parts outlets, frustration with Linux RAID drivers, watching the data
from San Francisco mirror to Bath over three agonizing days, some
pretty hairy reconfiguration and various sys admin shenanigans, the
realprogrammers.com server has moved!

Its new name is mythix.realprogrammers.com (62.188.61.204). More info
including a map of where Bath is(!) is at http://paulm.com/hosting/

All shell, database, web and so on data has been mirrored over and with
any luck you shouldn't even notice a difference.

The old machine, tantrix.realprogrammers.com, is going offline at 09:00
PDT (California) / 17:00 BST (UK). It will be accessible at that address
'til then. Shell & DB users are invited to poke about and see if
everything's working OK. Anyone relying on the old IP address should
change it ASAP.

I'm sorry this didn't get out earlier; I tried to send it last night but
there were massive backbone problems in the UK (
https://stats.linx.net/cgi-pub/combined?log=combined.bits ; LINX is
London INternet eXchange)

With any luck tantrix will re-appear and then we'll have a second
server online!

Enjoy,
Paul
