newsgroup moved to new server...
All,

The newsgroups (actually digitalmars.com) has moved to a new server with 
much more processor power Dual Opteron 2.0 Ghz, with 8 times as much RAM 
and about 8 times as much disk space). Overall this should result in an 
8*+ or so improvement.

Unfortunately there were some issue's getting all the news articles 
moved over. It should be fine now and posting should work again as well. 
However, the articles might all show as un-read when you reconnect to 
news.digitalmars.com. (They did for me in Thunderbird 
www.mozilla.org/thunderbird/). I am not sure that there is anything I 
could do to prevent this at this moment.

Let me know if there are any problems.

Thanks!
Jan

One can only hope you're referring to content, as well.

I'm using Opera (at home) and there were no problems at all.

I'll log in with 40tude at the office tomorrow and let you know if there  
are any issues there.

I can't seem to access archived messages through Thunderbird. New 
messages are showing up fine. The web archive doesn't seem to be 
working, either.

I am not able to read any of the old posts, I got all the headers from
earlier, but get that they don't exist on the server anymore if I try to
read them. I guess some clients will cache them, mine (KNode) don't. I also
unsubscribed / resubscribed to digitalmars.D.dtl to test. Only this thread
was there.

OK, rebuild the overview and history... I think that solved it...

Thanks!

Re: newsgroup moved to new server...
Weird, I use Thunderbird... everything was marked somewhat weird but now 
everything is fine, I have old posts, I have what I've read previously, etc.

Odd.

Okay, it's working now. The web archive is still spitting out a 500 
error, however:

Re: newsgroup moved to new server...
Yeah... that's because there as some issue's running the 32 bits 
executable on a 64 bits operating system.
Trying to figure those out...

/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Undefined symbol "cerr" referenced from COPY 
relocation in <executable>

It has to do with the <executable> being linked against the dynamic 
libraries... If it would be static this would not be a problem. 
However... I do not have the sources... <sigh>

Thanks for the move. Now everything works great in Outlook Express. For the
first time in years instead of thousands of unread messages, I am seeing
1-10, which is the correct number.
