Email me at webmaster at familybanks dot org if you experience any problems. I am in the midst of an extensive network reorganization, and I have moved this site to a 2-node cluster. Anyone wanting to know the geeky details can keep checking over on jamespurl.org

For those that haven't already, please take a trip through the JP network of sites to find out some news from us. It was inspired by the "red pill / Alice in Wonderland" reference in The Matrix, so keep clicking links to go further down the rabbit hole. Take the red pill here

Finally, I have gotten the site migrated back to (hopefully) full functionality, including support for TIFF files and emailing passwords/accepting new accounts.

This site is up somewhat. I haven't had a chance to test everything, so if something other than items on the list below don't work (if you aren't sure, send it to me anyway), please send a message to me at familybanks at jamespurl dot com. I wrote it out so that it isn't easy for spammers to pluck that email address. I will update the list as I correct items or discover more, but the following are issues I know of for sure:

• Anything dealing with email (sent from this site) will require further work (like if you forgot your password and need it emailed to you or new signups).

Trying to be a good sysadmin, I want to keep on top of security updates and patches (particularly those that could affect this website or my mail server). To this end, I updated the webserver in use apache. This reset some options in the webserver config that caused a s-t-r-a-n-g-e recursion error relating to the Gallery 2 Module.

I am going to experiment with utilizing the Coral Distribution Network.

Just a friendly message from the sysop. There is upcoming system maintenance. Not anticipating the success of the site, I misplaced the site in the system area of the server hosting this site, joana. Around 02:00 on Saturday 17 June 2006, the site will taken offline and replaced by a maintenance page

It seems folks are finding this site, and even posting content. Any one interested in having their own blog should just add a comment. A few new things:

Welcome!
