Hostcentric is cheap, but cheap might not mean good.

This page has been offline for a number of reasons. Mostly because the original server hosting it was compromised by some script kiddie and we all freaked out and got some new hosting. More up to date, cheaper with better hardware. Unfortunately the system the company, named Hostcentric, uses this commercial package called Plesk and explicitly states in their usage terms that we are forbidden to get rid of it. I'd be happy with it if it worked, but it's quite broken. It has graphical interface elements which directly conflict with the configuration files and compiled binaries it claims to have control over. In my case it forbade me to execute the CGI script which generates this blog even though I selected the "execute CGI" option.

So whatever, I'll be slowly getting back to writing copious amounts of rambling prose here in the future. Things are changing quite a lot for me so I guess it's a good idea to document them in public :) -l
