As of this morning, I've committed to upgrading and relocating IH8MUD.com to it's own dedicated web server. This will not only increase site speeds and reliability, but will allow for some additional growth.
The basic server specs will be:
2.4 ghz Celeron, 640k, one 40gig HD, one 20 gig backup HD, hooked up to a DS3 (45 Megabits/second) line connected directly to an OC48c backbone.
I haven't got a target date set, but if things go smoothly, it may be as quick as a week away. There WILL be some unavoidable downtime associated with the move. (UPDATE - planning to load and test as soon as Tuesday evening)
Again, thanks to everyone for your patience. IH8MUD.com has expanded WELL beyond my wildest guesses, and your understanding during these growing pains is appreciated!
