I have an idea. The entire Fox community should take a vacation so we can get by without the UT for a while if it goes down. Then you can take a break. Sound like a plan? :)

BTW, thanks for changing the background! It's so nice being able to come here now without feeling like someone is sticking knives in my eyes.

>I went back at the office downtime and discovered that the motherboard has failed. At least, it seems to be the case. So, I switched disk from the main server to the backup server. But, then, where was the tools. I had to find some piece of iron somewhere to remove the drive and put it on the backup server. So, changing the drive took 30 minutes instead of 30 seconds. It's now 00h00 and I am taking my weekend. We're back up and running. I hope this time it will last. Tomorrow, first thing, I'll buy some tools for the office downtime.
