You do know that JIMROB and staff have been working on installing some new servers, don’t you?
That is what has been causing the double posts, I believe.
JimRob and John Robinson:
Are those new servers Apple Macintosh computer servers? If so, Apple computers as servers are among the best. Plus Apple has a great track record to having the least problems with hacking attacks. Thanks for the response.
From A Apple Fan. :) =^..^=
Probably not a bad idea to ping them both. I’d like to see what John thinks.....
Agreed.
Need to have at least 1 mirror site and perhaps a COOP site besides.
I have noticed recently a good bit of timeouts and double postings from timeouts lately, and suspect we’re getting DOS attacks right now.
We’re be probed. Make no mistake
Thanks, guys!
LOL!
What we had seen early in the week should serve as a warning, not just to FR but to ANY conservitive website.
Did you consider sending this in Freep mail first by chance?
I’m sure they have the sandbags in place with the .50 cal installed. They know there will be zappers in the weeks to come.

Bookmark the direct IP addresses if the DNS listing gets hacked.
“It’s a constructive suggestion arosen from a legitimate concern. “
How much better to see someone offer some SOLUTIONS, instead of just whining about it.
Thank You, KIDD.
OK, since no one else has done it....
Jim and John, PING!!!
The “pray for my kitty” threads are important. Seriously, those threads help posters who are energetically opposed to each on particular political points, to remember that they’re both human and have some things in common that are important to them and that they agree on. The sense of community that such threads help build, improve the cultural foundations of FR and the overall tone of the discourse here.
But Kitty was just recruited and registered to vote by my local Democrats. Little do they know Kitty will vote for McCain.
Have a heart.

Y’all might consider putting all n00bs on a probationary status for the duration. Maybe their posts can be subject to review prior to posting, or some such thing.
Ever hear of Gridscale?
Makes relational DB propagation seamless and very bandwidth/cost efficient. But it only works with IBM DB2 platforms currently. I doubt that is what FR’s backend is built on.
Other than that, these are good suggestions. If I still worked for an ISP I’d be happy to facilitate the colo...but alas I don’t.
This thread isn't about Hillary. Please stay on topic... :)
