Hinky’s Proxy Obsession

I just noticed the Top Ten list died on Sunday.

Sunday was a Bad Day.  Among other things, the power “dipped”.  Although it’s been on a UPS for years, for some reason this didn’t save the router/gateway/UT99 server known as “BOT House” from dieing.  The proxy project VM, which is not power protected, failed to hook up with an NFS share exported by that system when it came back up.  This effectively killed the Top Ten list.

So I added Yet Another Cron Job to check to make sure the NFS drives are always attached (making sure to include the FUCKING BLANK LINE AT THE END OF THE FILE that always screws me over with cron – grrrrrr).

It will probably be back to normal later today.  Right now it has a dupe line in there but I really don’t want to mess with it now.
