As most people reading this likely know: Colorfield Space is
hosted in my living room on a RaspberryPi Zero W. I mention this
as it relates to this announcment of server down time.
My wife and I are moving to a new apartment on May 11th (eleven
days from now). I have arranged with my ISP to switch the service
over that very day. It is likely that at 12:00am PST on May 11th
the server will go down. I will then move apartments and set up
the server at the new location. I will be switching to a new,
hopefully better, modem/router at that time. So I will need to
set up the port forwarding and configure the firewall and all of
that. I have taken copious notes on my current setup and hope
to have the server up and running no later than 5pm PST on the
same day.
I know we have had a number of new people sign up for accounts in
the last week or few. I want to stress that the downtime is very
atypical and will not be a regular occurence. Sorry for any inco-
nvenience!
If for any reason I am not able to get the server up and running
in short order, I will post updates on my other phlog at:
zaibatsu.circumlunar.space:70/1/~sloum/
I do not anticipate the need, but you are more than welcome to
bookmark that address and check it if you are unable to get to
this one. Additionally, if any users would like me to e-mail them
when the server is back up, I would be happy to do so. Please
send any such requests to: sloum@sdf.org
Again, sorry for the forthcoming inconvenience.
