Sorry for the downtime yesterday. The server went down due to some Xen issues and didn't come back up properly because of some software that I had installed. (A firewall was installed with a piece of software related to SELinux that I thought was just for configuring things. Apparently not.)
Anyway, all is up and running again and I finally got SpamAssassin set up after determining that SELinux was the issue and figuring out how to work around issues with SELinux.

I've changed my site yet again. The reason I changed it this time was pretty much just to get Trac integrated into all of my projects. Here's what's changed:
I'm fairly pleased with the way everything turned out in terms of design, usability, and speed. Having Trac should simplify my life and the life of others as well. No more clunky, unsearchable, support pages.

It's been a while now that my blog's been offline. The URLs leading to it have also changed a good amount in the last month or so, and for the (two) people who subscribe to the blog via RSS, I'm sorry to change things up on you so much.
Everything's functional again, but now I'm on the Typo trunk because I couldn't get the current stable release that includes rails to work properly for me. I had a good number of problems setting things up with lightly, but managed my way through them. I might post something here later about that for other people setting things up. For now I'm going to keep sorting through the few issues I still have to sort out in my second webserver transition in a very short span.
I'm now on a NetworkRedux VPS account which has been extremely nice so far. I've learned a good amount about setting up a server and I'm sure I will continue to learn about it as things progress.

I finally got around to registering a domain name, so update your bookmarks (for the few people who have bookmarked things on my site). I actually am set up with a new host as well, NetworkRedux, and so far they have been amazing. AmbitiousLemon has been so good to me, and I still feel like I owe the guy who let me steal so much bandwidth from him for so long. I highly recommend taking a look at AmbitiousLemon if you're looking for a free web host. They do have a few rules, though.
The NetworkRedux server feels a lot faster than any host I've been with yet, and I hope that eventually I'll be able to get some RubyOnRails applications running on FastCGI. Right now I'm using Typo to do blogging, but am still running it on CGI. Now that I have a real blogging system set up, maybe I'll actually post things here more often. I doubt anyone actually reads any of these posts, though, anyway.
