Firebird upgrade successful

I took firebird down at 1:05 (CDT) to install more memory and a tape
drive... the box was down for 20 minutes, but I had a bit of trouble with
the new kernel I'd compiled to recognize the tape drive.  (The tape driver
turns out to not be available as a dynamically-loadable module, so I had
to compile a new kernel.)  I got that fixed after about three reboots and
all is well.  We were back up and running properly about 2:30.

We're now running on 192M of RAM (thanks, David Smith, for the 128M SD-RAM
stick!).  We were starting to feel a bit tight on 64M with the database
and all.

I've also got the tape drive working already and am making a full system
dump as we speak.  Now I can quit doing selective backups to burn to CD,
forgetting to burn them, and generally living on the edge of catastrophic
dataloss.

And while I'm here, I'd like to thank all of you for helping to make the
Phoenyx *the* place to find great roleplaying games.  We couldn't do it
without you.

Firebird upgrade successful

Thanks for the Lebensraum setup (bp@phoenyx.net)...
but I don't seem to have a moderator page yet.  I got:

Error: 404 Not Found

The page you requested (http://www.phoenyx.net/bp/modtool.html) was not found.

The "base" page is there, but if I select the member info:
http://www.phoenyx.net/cgi-bin/bpmember.cgi

I can't seem to log on (everything I tried gives "invalid user id" - bp, 
thom, lebensra, thomcat).

If I click on "member settings" from the main page, neither bp nor 
lebensraum is in the "group" listbox.

I have been able to subscribe to the list (bp-on), but I haven't sent the 
information to anybody else since I don't seem to be properly set up yet.

Help?  and  Thanks again!
