Oopsy…

Today it was brought to my attention that inexistence.org’s domain name expired.
Less than 20 minutes later we are back up…

Sorry for the “slight” service interruption everyone.

Oh and if you still cannot connect to inexistence you really should be using opendns
by now. In other words go change your DNS settings so things work better!

Google Voice…

Hey Folks,
Just added the Google Voice call widget here…
You can leave a voicemail there whenever an issue arises and I will take care of it ASAP.

SPF, DKIM, Mail Changes

I’ve implemented spf tags onto inexistence mail to help with spam filtering
(I’m currently just marking headers not failing stuff).

I’ve also implemented DKIM signatures for select domain names.
(Also not failing unsigned domains and all domains are in test mode).

But if you were expecting an email and haven’t received it and
they have confirmed they sent it please let me know…
I know internally there are no email problems so I will receive your notifications.

Thanks!

PS. If you all of a sudden cannot use your email client of choice
set the auth to LOGIN sometimes called PASSWORD
do not use the MD5 / NTLM stuff as you’ll need my help.

My bad…

The other day you may have noticed that you couldn’t view any websites hosted.

It was my fault I did an apt-get upgrade (which included php5 updates)
and the reason it broke is we use eAccelerator. And the issue was I didn’t recompile
and link it to the updated php5 of course I’ve done so since then.

So yeah did an apt-get upgrade
PhpMyAdmin is updated
svn updates were applied

And that is all for tonight…

Multi-core…

Well as Inexistence runs on a Multi-core processor thanks to DaVs…
I’ve been experimenting with what support Linux has for it…

Taskset was my discovery first thing…

So I’m proud to say we’re actually using the cores more efficiently now.
For example the Neverwinter Nights 1 server we’ve been running gets to
play with core 4 all by itself, Core 3 has all the xinetd processes, etc…

Seems to make things more snappy now…

Enjoy!

PS. I also did some wordpress plugin updates for you folks and optimized
some memory usage issues hope everyone is enjoying the services!
