The server's operating system has been updated to 10.5.4, the latest version available.

I have upgraded our version of phpMyAdmin to 2.11.7, the latest available.

I have installed and configured DomainKeys, a tool created by Yahoo! which digitally signs all outgoing messages sent via port 587 (not port 25). This tool will cut down on how many of our outgoing messages are flagged as spam, specifically when e-mailing Yahoo.com addresses.

To use this service, all you have to do is change your outgoing server settings for email to use port 587, rather than 25. You must authenticate yourself to use the outgoing mail service anyhow, and SSL is available via our self-signed certificate.

SquirrelMail, our webmail system, has been upgraded to version 1.4.15, the latest version available.

I have updated the server software from 10.5.2 to 10.5.3, the latest version available from Apple.

I have updated our copy of phpMyAdmin to the latest version available, 2.11.6.

I have updated our installation of phpMyAdmin to the latest version available, 2.11.5.2.

Upon request, I have added a web FTP interface for customers, which is available here: http://www.fadetoyou.com/webftp/.

Due to the fact that a serious security vulnerability was found in the newly released phpMyAdmin 2.11.5, we have upgraded our copy of the software to the latest version available (2.11.5.1).

We have updated the server OS from version 10.5 to 10.5.2, which includes numerous software and security updates. For curiosity's sake, you may read about what was specifically included here.

Also, our copy of phpMyAdmin has been updated from version 2.11.3 to 2.11.5.

The downtime associated with these updates was roughly 2 minutes.

Just wanted to let everyone know that the two network outages over the past few days have been completely resolved and there should be no further interruption.

A network outage in our area resulted in approximately 3 hours of downtime between 4:30 and 7:30pm CST. All issues have been resolved.

The personal website of Kathy Cash-Tittle is now available for viewing! Check it out at: http://www.kathycash.com/

The webmail application that F2U uses, SquirrelMail, has been updated to the latest available verison, 1.4.13.

I just wanted to inform whoever is reading this that my sister, Kacy Tittle, has moved her website to the server. She is a certified doula, and you can check her out at: kacytittle.net.

Just wanted to drop everyone a note that dustintittle.com is now online. Not all the content is completed yet, but the basic design is finished and public.

A minor configuration error in the mail service, which insignificantly delayed the delivery of mail, has been fixed. The error resulted from our primary e-mail virus scanner not functioning properly. Our backup scanner kicked in, ensuring that all delivered messages were safe, but the failure of the primary scanner is what caused the delays (which, on average, were between 30 and 60 seconds).

There should be no more issues with delayed mail.

phpMyAdmin, a PHP tool used to administrate MySQL databases, has been installed and configured here. Please use your username (without @domainname.com) and password to log in.

For the convenience of those who depend upon this server for the hosting of their files and emails, I have added a live server status report to the server page. From there, you can check the current availability of the DNS, FTP, IMAP, POP3, SMTP, and mySQL services.

All FTP issues have been resolved. In addition to providing valid authentication credentials, all users must use secure (SSH) FTP, or SFTP, in order to access his or her home directories.

We are happy to announce that version 1 of our website is completed and available to the public. Considering that most of our emphasis will be placed on our hosted sites, this network hub is always intended to be fairly simple to use and navigate. While more information will gradually be added, most of our time and energy will be devoted elsewhere.
