Please note that the content below was last updated on 14 October 1996; the content of this page is being preserved as-is for posterity. The only changes made since that time were (a) to update the page markup to current standards, (b) to update internal links as hosting platforms changed or to point to archive.org when available, and (c) to obscure email addresses located throughout these pages (except for USENET postings). Needless to say, many of the links to external sites are no longer functional after 20+ years.
Path: visi.com!winternet.com!not-for-mail From: rossow@winternet.com (Michael Rossow) Newsgroups: winternet.general Subject: Subzero crash Date: 13 Jul 1996 05:37:04 GMT Organization: StarNet Communications, Inc Lines: 16 Distribution: local Message-ID: <4s7cm0$eua@blackice.winternet.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: subzero.winternet.com X-Newsreader: TIN [UNIX 1.3 950726BETA PL0] I'm sorry to say I wasn't even surprised when Subzero rebooted itself this evening without warning or notification from management. I tried calling the office to let someone know the machine was down, but of course their voice mail system is down today as well and no one seems to be answering the phone. Service failures have become so commonplace around here that "failure" is becoming the norm. This is a very sad state of affairs. -- Michael Rossow rossow@winternet.com Web Page: http://www.winternet.com/~rossow
