Web Server Update.
ACMEX:8001
acmex is up for now. One account ran out of bananas and another has been
put in it's place. No telling how long this will last for though. This
account will probably run out in a couple of weeks (maybe longer since
we've got vacation coming up).
ACMEW:65000
I'm not taking it down until I run out of bananas. I'm probably over my
limit now but it doesn't dock me until the server is reset so I'm just
holding out until acmew goes down. Acmew:65000 is where I have all of
the scripts running (personal scripts for users and the counter script)
I'm going to try to move these over to acmey to lessen the banana cost to
me. I'll mail individuals when I move the permissions over.
ACMEZ,W:8001
All up. Should be for a while. No extreme banana shortage.
ACMEY:8001
There was a problem with gifs loading. The would come up halfway and
stop. JPegs would be corrupted on the bottom half. I recompiled the
server for Solaris 2.5 and that seems to have fixed the problem.
Everyone please try to start using acmey so we can keep these servers up
as long as possible. They want a good load to test out Solaris2.5 so
let's give it to them :)
The Counter Script:
The counter script is working after I recomplied it but some people don't
seem to understand what they are there for and how they work. First of
all you have to put the counter on the page it is counting. Using a
different page as the argument to the counter script will not do the
counting based on that page. It will still count based on the page the
counter is viewed in. The counter only gets incremented when you access
the picture (ie when the page is loaded). The argument to the counter
script is purely for identification purposes. It does not affect which
page is counted.
Second. Each time the counter script is run it uses up bananas. Please
only have one or two counters for your pages (like I have one for my
main page and one for my slirp page). This will help keep the usage down
and make administration easier. There are a few people with over 10
counters each. Please take these out. They are making the counter file
unwieldly for debugging. Thanks.
Thats about it for now. We are still working out the bugs so be kind. I
just found out that CS1501 is using our server so we may be able to use
this as our excuse to get OIT to give us a dedicated web account
(something like webby@prism :)
bye bye kiddies!
