Well a big thank you to Mike Evans and Oly for their hard work and apt-get'in to get the new 'Experimental' server up and running. Hopefully having a mumble server on a big fat internet connection will make for crystal clear group voice communication.<br>
<br>If no one else wants to step forward and tweak the holding pages I'll do it, as I just installed Dreamweaver 8 on my Ubuntu box with the help of that clever Wine-Doors application.<br><br>Also I guess we now need to organize a KLUG OpenArena game and test the server out :-)<br>

OK folks - this is where we are so far:<br><br>1. Mike handed over the <a href="http://kentlug.org" target="_blank">kentlug.org</a> domain to me (also Mike just to<br>confuse matters)<br>2. Julia arranged for us to have a virtual server at ContextShift<br>
3. I've set up a few people as administrators on it so that if I get<br>hit by a bus, a Polish lorry on the M25, or just loose interest you<br>still have a way to get stuff done.<br>4. Oly has installed the openarena server on it. This took a little bit<br>
of jiggling as we had to update the version of libc6. Anyway it runs<br>and Oly managed to frag me in about 20 seconds!<br>5. I've installed Apache2 and uploaded a very simple website as a place<br>marker. We're not currently thinking of running a great and glorious<br>
website, so it points back at our main one on <a href="http://kent.lug.org.uk" target="_blank">kent.lug.org.uk</a>.<br>6. I set up the DNS server for the domain on Friday and that has<br>propagated. I have just (Sunday) put the server's IP address into it,<br>
so again that could take 48 hours to propagate. In the meantime if you<br>want to have a look you can see it at:<br> <a href="http://klug.contextshift.co.uk" target="_blank">klug.contextshift.co.uk</a><br><br>Next Steps:<br>
<br>1. Dan - once <a href="http://kentlug.org" target="_blank">kentlug.org</a> is resolving to the server please put a link<br>from the main lug site.<br>2. Oly - the games page is a place holder. Could you edit it, or let<br>
me have some better content so that it's got some helpful content for<br>people wanting to play?<br>3. To get the Mumble server up we probably need to upgrade the debian<br>distribution we are using. Oly and I will sort that between us.<br>
4. I'm no website designer, so if someone is willing/able to provide<br>something better than my amateur layout: please step forward.<br>5. Any further suggestions welcome.<br><br>Mike E<br><br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>
