Reboot

If anyone reads this - I'm going to reboot the main site server at about 06:10 Eastern time.

So the site will go off air for about 5 minutes ....

5 minutes ........  ::)

Make that 4 hours - apologies!

1 letter mistype in a cfg file cause a major failure & took ages to find out what it was .............

Another lesson learned - some things in computers can be kicked with little or no effect - others - a touch of a feather can cause disaster ........   in other words ........ I don't know actually .......  ::)  8)

Yes, always.  A computer will ALWAYS do precisely what you tell it to.  It may not be what you WANT it to do (see Pete's example), but it will always do what it's told, unless there's an error.

This is the main fault with computers.  There's no "common sense".
