New server!

Found out earlier this week that my server’s OS was way out of date. So for the last couple days I’ve been attempting to get the new place all nice a cozy. I ended up having to compile apache and php from scratch since the apt-get versions are a little behind and had a completely different configuration setup then I had been using (plus they lacked features I wanted).

I’ve also taken this opportunity to clean up my DNS mess. Before I was just using this server for all my DNS needs, but now, I have linode.com slaving off of me. This way, I should be able to provide uptime where it concerns the DNS. Additionally I’ve learned about something called a LOC Record, I’ve set mine to the Willmar latitude and longitude coordinates. Check out this site for a map (you’ll need to put in josherickson.org) or for the geeks this place.
