I'm trying to reduce the amount of "junk" (the Missus's term!) , You can't go offering me more rackmount gear! Much as I would like to fill one of the "cubbyholes" here with a nice 48U rack stuffed full of 48 core beasts and Cisco switches, the other half has insisted that's not going to happen.

4x1GB of Registered ECC PC3200 is fairly cheap now, about a fiver a stick from fleabay if you fancy filling it up, (Though I can't see this Forum using 4GB, I suspect the processors would struggle before the RAM).
You want me to go down *there*? On a bloody *rope*?

yer it'll run fine on a little over a gig to be honest. Nothing all the taxing and not a huge amount of traffic.

Our airing cupboard is know as the 'server room' - full height rack is pretty full. Everything from x10 home automation, pc's for serving cinema projector and various LCD tv's around the house via cat5 KVM extenders, CCTV, PC's for the recording studio - to reduce heat and fan noise etc in the studio itself - etc etc - you'd love it. Obviously its all 100% necessary but the wife doesn't see it like that - she just see's it as an expensive way of heating the house!

Indeed 100% necessary, :P and I'll probably have similar one day, I'll have to have a gander at some point.

Is it just me or are other increasingly finding the ucet website unavailable at times?

Surly the club has enough funds to pay for a decent hosting service.

I use webhostinguk.com and I have had very few problems and very good support, they also keep regular backups

One option is
1 GB disk space and 10 GB Monthly Bandwidth for £4 per month.

I am not sure how this fits the current UCET profile.

I know Tim is very busy at present, So I can help out if needed.

I am experiencing exactly the same John ...

Tim is busy with all sorts of stuff including babies but he and you are the only two people that understand any about the forum or webby stuff.

It would be awesome if you could fix it between you ;)

I'm sure it is slow, and also it refuses to allow me to upload pictures.
When will we have PM back?

to be honest - between now and when i go back to the holiday home (just over a week from now i am mad busy) Being that i'll be out there for two weeks on 'hopefully' quiet night cover i think thats likely to be my best chance at getting some peace to get things done ;-) ;-)

Only that the bastards won't refund us. I guess we can afford to cut our losses. Its been 'ok' since my last major moaning sessions to them but i've noticed heavy server loading again the last few days myself....
