[Savannah-help-public] fencepost.gnu.org maintenance / relocation

[Justin Baugh]

Over the next few days, fencepost will be shut down for maintenance a 
few times to receive some upgrades as well as so it can be moved to a 
new network.

On Wednesday, June 6, 2007, at 11:00 AM GMT -0400, fencepost will be 
down for an hour while we reallocate disk space and install new memory.

On Thursday, June 7, 2007, at 11:00 AM GMT -0400, fencepost will be down 
for approximately two hours while the machine is relocated to a 
different facility and moved to a new network. DNS changes reflecting 
this should be quick to propagate, but for reference, the new IP address 
of fencepost.gnu.org will be 140.186.70.10. Users should notice 
significant speed increases as fencepost will be moving from its 
traditional home behind FSF's T1 line to a new multihomed BGP-routed 
network with over 400Mbps of bandwidth available to it.

Questions about this upgrade/migration should be directed to 
address@hidden

Thanks,

-Justin
