I appreciate everyone's concern. I understand the services run on linuxbox.org are critical to the well-being of the Internet in some cases, and a valued service in other cases. linuxbox.org is a small box, located in Dallas TX, running behind a DSL line. There was an anticipated downtime early Monday after about 2 years on the air, which unfortunately was repeated yesterday for about 24 hours. What are we doing running such services on a DSL line? While the services run on linuxbox.org are well backed up with very strong boxes in very strong locations with multiple upstream providers (the backup list for MWP for example is hosted by Vixie), that little box has served us well for over 10 years, and I have no intention of moving from it. I find the use of a simple box behind a DSL line refreshing in today's world where more and more bandwidth is thrown around. That said, I do realize some of the services can no longer simply be "backed up" and will have to be moved to one of our other "strong" locations. Thanks, Gadi.

I'd be happy to kick in a suitably sized VPS/VM instance, to know that a resource this useful won't go down for days on end due to improper hosting arrangements. Please don't hesitate to contact me off-list if you're interested... -a

Your offer is more than appreciated. I mean that. But we have a few boxes on very strong links fired up and usable. This one is legacy, and a legacy to boot. :) Gadi.
