Cloud transition

is in full swing. By the end of this year all clients have been moved to the cloud operating center and the first host I ever rented will be finally shut down after almost 10 years of (error-prone) operation.

This box in particular had a lot of learning-by-doing effect attached to it and has almost been killed premature by the hosting operator right after his 1000 days uptime celebration as the provider moved it from 32-bit x86 architecture to Itanium based 64-bit IA-64 architecture. It was astonishing that nothing but the shell remote access survived. 11/28/2011
