Russell is down but not out

Comments[0] by Dave in General

Russell Beattie has had a tough week, but he is OK - at least in the physical world. In the digital world of cyberspace, however, he is not doing so well. First, he lost his client by accidentally installing Linux over his Windows partition. Next, he lost his server because his ISP, CWIHosting.com, has mysteriously shut down his account. CWIHosting tells him this is because of "police reasons." The CWIHosting support people told him that he needs to email the CTO and CEO to get any further information. Unfortunately, they are not responding to his emails. He is a little worried that he might not be allowed to get into his account and rescue his weblog archives. That is a scary thought.

Russell thinks that "police reasons" might be actually be a mis-spelling of "policy reasons" and perhaps he simply overloaded his shared Java VM by misconfiguring something when he set up OSCache. I hope that is the case. Anyway, Russell is setting up a new account at JohnCompanies.com ISP and hopes to be back on line by Monday or Tuesday. Good luck Russell!
