I went to the colo this morning and cleaned the remaining file systems. I found that they'd never been cleaned since I built the system because I hadn't configured them to clean themselves regularly. I've now set all volumes to to a filesystem check every 3 months. I replaced one of the old disks as well. I also paid for hosting up to the end of 2007.

Last night I enabled a set of backup DNS servers and a set of backup mail servers in Reno. Now if the server fails, we still have DNS resolution and we control the queuing of the mail instead of depending on the sender.

At this point I feel confident that the recent problems of the last week (other than the power failure) have been solved and we're back at the level of stability we had before (good, but not perfect).

I'm planning to migrate email to google this week but with time running short and me being out of town this coming weekend it may not happen.
