As you are by now aware, the FTP machine died early this morning.
Both the internal SCSI bus on the Sparc LX AND the SCSI hard drive are
dead. =-\
We went and bought a new SCSI drive and external SCSI drive case,
and have been trying to get this combo to work on the LX with no success
(the external SCSI buss *seemed* OK, but it wasn't). Now we are
shuffling hardware to get FTP and the Adult Web server back online. This
is why this has taken so very long, and we apologize for the
inconvenience.
Sincerely,
Jimmie Farmer
