Muppet-Enhanced Lorien Status

[lwood]

NB, Gentle Readers, that this isn't actually an old post come back around, but rather a new post made by editing an old post with new data.

[Edited 14:30 to Add: Called our ISP. Someone has to pop 'round to the Central Office, physically check some deep network hoodoo (the DSLAM card), and replace if necessary. Next update will be in 24 hours or so.]

And now, courtesy of Geek and Proud's Homeland Security Advisory thingy, cute Muppety pictures, we have the current Lorien Report:

Overall Status	Explanation
	The current status of my server is Elmo as the network is DOWN.
The overall status breaks down into three sub-parts: network ("can I get there from here?") hardware (physical computer components) and software (programs that put the hardware on the network). If we have an Elmo, Ernie, or Bert on any one of these, that means something is affecting the casual e-mail & web browsing experience, either a little (Bert), a lot (Ernie), or it's completely cocked up (Elmo).

Network Status	Explanation
	We're having intermittent network failure right now. If we're down at the moment, that's an Elmo--but if we were up right now, waiting for it to fall over again, that would be an Ernie.
Hardware Status	Explanation
	Oscar Everything is A-OK!
Software Status	Explanation
	Oscar As far as I know, we're all good here.

Yes, it's down again. My displeasure may best be measured in archaic measures like furlongs per fortnight. Our ISP, Speakeasy, is currently Expressing Their Displeasure at Covad, their ILEC (another kind of service provider), who in turn is about to Express Their Displeasure at AT&T, né SBC, né Pacific*Bell, né AT&T, whose fault this has all been since, I dunno, pre-Judge Greene, perhaps pre-Alexander Graham Bell.

As of now, 1137 PST on 11 June 2006, lorien's network is currently DOWN, eta unknown.

Bleargh!
