    Default Friday's Outage

    Okay here is the short version of why we were down today.

    I bought the domain names from company x. I had them set up to auto-renew every year. What I didn't know was that company x was really just a reseller for company y.

    Company x and company y and an issue and company x was no longer an authorized reseller. Nobody ever told me there was an issue. I thought that everything was fine and the domain names would auto-renew like they do every year. Well I was wrong.

    So today all the domain names expired. And nobody told me. And of course they did not renew. So the domains expired and we went down. I was out of town and didn't know until foxtrot told me. He had been told by 7idl and maybe others.

    I was able to get in and get it fixed. We will now auto renew or should. In any case I registered the names for several more years so it should not be an issue for a while.

    I'm sorry for the outage, and appreciate your patience. I now know why most people won't run websites for free. They really can be a lot of work.

    But you guys are worth it!

    Not a bother. I'm still surprised this thing has lasted this long. I have lost track of how long I've been doing his now.
