Hi,
Just
to keep you informed and in case you sent e-mail to bluesandjazzguy@ncf.ca since then, NCF encountered
a major server equipment crash early Friday
afternoon.
This
affected initially both the web and e-mail systems.
Yesterday, web service was back, but e-mail although back on-line is
still being worked on by NCF staff and volunteers. New e-mails are working OK,
but whatever was in the system may or may not have been lost. Time will tell if
the people working on it can capture and forward what was lost.If you sent
anything in the time involved, please resend it so it can be taken care
of.
NCF is supported by user
and supportive local businesses with both fund and equipment donations that help
offer normally a reasonably priced, reliable web and e-mail service.
Please be patient while
the NCF people work to resolve the equipment breakdown that caused this
outage and if you can help or have contacts that may be able to offer any
surplus but usable equipment that might help prevent future this kind of
exceptional failure for the first time in 15 years, please contact André Dalle
at adalle@ncf.ca
Please
note that this is a purely voluntary initiative on my part to hopefully do what
I can
to
help prevent a similar outage in future of NCF. Whatever you may be able to do
on
your
part is between you and whatever contact you establish with
NCF.
