Wolfskill) Organization: Wolfskill & Dowling residence; Anaheim, CA (USA) Lines: 21 Friday, 23 February, at about 9:30 AM, dhw68k[.cts.com] lost power (along with everything else in the neighborhood) for about 20 minutes. As it happens, things got sufficiently scrambled that I found it necessary to restore the root and spool file systems as of Thursday, 22 February, at about 4 PM. * Some mail in transit (both to and from dhw68k[.cts.com]) may well have been lost. Some may also be duplicated. * A fair amount of news was lost. The saving grace is that some measures to reduce the probability of a recurrence are being pursued. Glad to be back up, david -- David H. Wolfskill uucp: ...{spsd,zardoz,felix}!dhw68k!david InterNet: david@dhw68k.cts.com CompuServe: >internet:david@dhw68k.cts.com
