And another new IP :-/

Now for the first time since December 2003, and following the March 2003 change, which itself suggests a nine-month pattern, Comcast assigned us a new IP address.

So I just edited the web form at gandi for the DNS of the .com address, sent a signed email to the 'change' bot at db.debian.org for the .net address, edited the configuration for bind, edited /etc/hosts, edited apache's httpd.config, and updated the IP address itself for the mail forwarder. Now all I need to do is wait for DNS to catch up :-/

Somewhat of a silly game, really. Maybe I should splurge for a real provider like Speakeasy?
