Hi Ed, The reason you weren't getting anyware was that a sudden thunderstorm knocked out power here in Connecticut last night and I was able to restart the server around 6 this morning. My IP is semistatic (by that I mean it's not changed in about 6 months) so I point a static dns record to it and that's worked fine for a while. So if you could give that another try asap that'd be great! Thanks for your help, Alex Snow ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ed Barnes" <na007375@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2002 4:17 AM Subject: Re: Off Topic but could someone do me a favor? > Hi Alex.
