I don't have any experience with Textpattern, but amongst the others, I'd imagine based on mrwisdom12's post, that he is not that interested in a bloated Content Management System, especially one that can cause anxiety when installing. I believe of the systems mentioned, WordPress would be the simplest install and be more than satisfactory to complete the job asked for.

Has there been a status update on how the servers are behaving and how many of the servers have received their upgrades?

This post is purposely non-descriptive because I don't want to spoil the responses with my lack of knowledge on servers. Someone I know is looking to speak with people about their experience working with high-end Dell servers, including the Dell Poweredge 6650. If you have any experience with high-end Dell servers, it would be greatly appreciated if you would post about it here and/or PM me your experience and contact info so I may pass it on. Thanks!

What an awesome solution. I've never had any reason to password protect, but this is good info. to have in case I do need to password protect the root folder. Thanks.

Ahh, but have you never owned a new one because you always bought used? Or because you always lease? It seems to me you have probably done both. I suppose someone who leases cars will have a higher turnover than someone who buys new one's. I've only been driving about 5-6 years, but I've owned (through my parents), two cars, both used.

I notice above that TCH-MikeJ has had a whole bunch of cars. I don't know what normal is in terms of how often people buy new cars, but what's the average length of time you have a car would you all say?

Some information around the web says that, "FrontPage has to publish to your domain name, so you must allow time for your domain name to start working on your server, before you attempt to publish." This apparently applies to MS Frontpage 2002, 2000, 98, and 97.

EDIT: It looks like TCH-MikeJ got to it before I did. That was going to be the next thing I mentioned...the webbot stuff in your current TCH site does appear to be missing aspects that would show it properly. I'm not positive what a navbot menu is, but assuming it's not there, your site looks fine without them. And personally, I think a background would make the site too busy. It's rather busy as it is. In your Cpanel, there is a Frontpage Extensions option. Once you click there, it says the following, and has options to install, reinstall, or uninstall frontpage extensions, "FrontPage Extensions Warning: It is recommended that you DO NOT install FrontPage Extensions on your account unless you intend to publish your site directly from the FrontPage application. Uninstalling the extensions from the main domain will uninstall the extensions from all subdomains and addon domains. Uninstalling will also remove all .htaccess files in your web root (public_html). You must have the extensions installed on the main domain before they can be installed on any subdomains or addon domains. Installing or uninstalling FrontPage Extensions will result in the loss of all .htaccess files in your web area. Any directories you have protected with WebProtect will become unprotected until you reprotect them." You may need to uninstall them if publishing directly from Frontpage. Can you be more specific on what it is that's wrong? Perhaps a link to your site at the other host, so people can see what your site is intended to look like would be helpful.

It's nice seeing faces. I'd have to say I was expecting HG to be/look older based on his first cars, as mentioned in a recent thread, but other than that, no particular surpises.

Nice work. I was a little confused for a second when HG said he needed to ask Big Gorilla something and I took a glance up the thread and didn't see your username.

I have 4 domains at GoDaddy and two at TotalNIC.com, which has been a headache. I'll be moving those two to GoDaddy eventually, though every person I know with any systems/networking experience tells me I should go with eNom.com.

I would like to point out my guesses weren't half bad. I even guessed the acquisition. :-)

What hasn't happened yet? hehe.

Mike, that's why I included it. In addition, I'd like to add: A TCH store/merchandise.

My guesses. Some are serious, some don't seem too far-fetched, others seem unreasonable, and others seem outlandish. Average Joe: Hawaii begins and Larissa's big surprise is that she's in love with TCH. A TCH member steals $2.3 million from an armored truck on CSI: Miami. A TCH member has his apartment raided by a SWAT team on COPS. A new billing system of sorts. A new TCH website. A new contest. Fantastico on servers. Change in TOS/AUP. Change in Reseller program somehow (price or features) Something to do with the dedicated servers. A TCH datacenter. An aquisition/merger. A TCH marriage/engagement. That's all I can think of at the moment...
