I hope someone noticed I’ve been off-line for a few days. I had a cascade of problems that effectively cratered by home internet system—my web, blog, and email servers.

Late yesterday, I was able, after replacing my cable-modem, with gaining access to the internet, but it was outbound only. My web, blog and email servers were still be blocked from receiving emails and visitors were blocked from seeing my web server and blog.

I fixed that a few minutes ago. Now I’m rebuilding my library database and have a network printer to get up and running.

I was getting to be a wee bit concerned. My system administrator skills had gotten a bit rusty since I retired.

Whew!
