I would be set.              The second host, Deon, has not actually taken it down. There are still a       few systems getting a feed from him, including me, but the traffic is no       where near where it used to be. I think Deon is using it as a testbed for       something, so it is still up.              Unless you are just aching to get it reconnected, I would treat it as dying       and maybe not worth it.              Mike                      * SLMR 2.1a * Education will never become as expensive as ignorance       --- SBBSecho 3.14-Linux        * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (1:2320/105)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/0 18/200 19/38 50 90/1 105/81 106/201 633 987 120/340       SEEN-BY: 123/131 124/5014 5016 129/305 330 331 130/330 153/7715 218/700       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/110 111 200 206 307 317 400 424 426 428       SEEN-BY: 229/452 550 664 700 266/512 280/464 282/1038 292/854 317/3       SEEN-BY: 320/219 322/757 342/200 387/25 26 396/45 460/58 633/280 712/848       PATH: 2320/105 154/10 280/464 396/45 229/426           |
