Date: Sat, 23 May 1998 17:12:24 -0500 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Greetings... I have two missives for the list today, a good and a not-so-good. (1) We had a power outage yesterday that lasted about two hours longer than our 8 hour batteries did :( and I'm happy to report that of the 15 odd machines running 2.2.5R, only 1 suffered any file systems damage when the (unexpected) end finally came (fsck compained about "missing/corrupted bitmaps"). To put that into perspective: 1 SVR4 machine was totaled, 2 were seriously damaged enough to require reloading anyway, and I'm nervous about the rest of them (6 more). In my experience (15++ years) this is about average for *nix crashes, so I'm * VERY * impressed with FBSD's "survivability"! Thank you. FBSD just became our *nix standard. (2) As part of our new standard, I decided to load up Apache today, and I see it has fallen off the ports tree? It is NOT in the www ports, and I am unable to find it (or a tarball) on the standard freebsd ftp sites. Where did it go??? Yours, J.A.
