Damn but this machine is being cranky!
And, I'm starting to wonder if I actually am on the paid users server. Seems like it is actually getting slower.

I've been on the phone with an engineer and a slew of other people at InterNAP for the past 5 hours. We've been trying to isolate why we're getting so many corrupted packets (hence the extreme slowness).

We moved everything around trying to figure what cable or component was bad but to no avail. However, the last thing we need to do is login to our Cisco switch but it seems telnet access to it is off now somehow. Evan was going to go in and turn it on, but I can't get ahold of him now and I'm in Portland.

So we're screwed.

I guess I'll wait for Evan but in the meantime there's not a damn thing I can do. This fucking sucks.

The people at InterNAP I've been working with are going home now but I'm supposed to page them if Evan shows up. Otherwise we'll resume in the morning hopefully with new ideas.

Man, don't you just hate those corrupted packets?

Okay, I don't know a packet from a pigfoot, but I'd surmise that it is a bit of data gone bad like that cheese I had to throw out yesterday.

Always the little things. I recall a two-hour delay in a recording studio once, tracking down the cause of crackling sounds on the tape. Turned out to be two cable connectors touching.

God is in the details. The Devil, too.

Long and the short is... it's up, but limping right now... better than the horrid downtime earlier.

it'll be better soon... just needs to walk it off.
