[AC-Admins] All about squirrel

[Pippin Bear]

FYI, from #opers, since I hear some don't read their logs/scrollback:

Feb 23 11:20:03 --- Foxdie has changed the topic to: [...] | Squirrel
                    will be no more as of the 29th Feb, please remove
                    it from the DNS round robin

Feb 29 12:32:37 <PipAsleep> hmm, might be worth CNAMEing squirrel to
                            husky, now that it's gone.
Feb 29 16:17:31 <WorkTixen> Husky's gone? o_o
Feb 29 16:39:59 <PipAsleep> no, squirrel's gone.
Feb 29 16:40:48 <PipAsleep> at least temporarily, until I can set up a
                            replacement on a box I have in the same DC.

Mar 01 21:27:16 <KojakWolf> Why is squirrel showing up in the links,
                            I thought it got shut down?
Mar 02 22:57:15 <PipAway> oh yeah, a new squirrel is up and running at
                          193.201.53.90, my replacement for foxdie's.
Mar 02 22:57:52 <PipAway> he stopped renting his server, but since I'm
                          renting one in the same DC, mine's now running
                          one so we'll still have one in germany.
Mar 02 22:58:44 <PipAway> so, as long as it works okay (and I haven't
                          connected a client to it to check, yet - ran
                          out of time before going away for the weekend)
                          we have a replacement squirrel!

Mar 04 02:13:24 --- Pippin has changed the topic to: [...] | Squirrel
                    has moved! Please change your link blocks to point
                    to the new IP address: 193.201.53.90
Mar 04 02:15:01 <KojakWolf> ok, so who's running this moved server?
Mar 04 02:17:53 <Harik> pippin I'd guess
Mar 04 02:18:39 <KojakWolf> Ah, I see.
Mar 04 02:19:23 <Pippin> Oui, c'est moi.
Mar 04 02:19:39 <Pippin> as mentioned here. :}
Mar 04 02:19:51 <Pippin> "You heard it first on #opers!"
Mar 04 02:27:06 <KojakWolf> Squirrel's link block for Snowleopard is
                            officially updated. :)

Mar 04 16:24:56 --> Kelsey (kelsey at husky.kennel) has joined #opers
Mar 04 16:25:10 <-- Kelsey (kelsey at husky.kennel) has left #opers (Growf.)
Mar 04 16:29:19 <Pippin> (I'm just testing out link blocks and such,
                         sorry for the spammage)
Mar 04 16:30:50 <Pippin> hmm.  snowleopard doesn't seem to have port
                         7999 open for server connections.

Mar 09 23:38:19 <Pippin> Hmm, and cheetah and lion need to update their
                         link blocks with squirrel's new IP address.
                         Then once those links are tested, it'll probably
                         be time to add squirrel back into DNS!
Mar 10 00:08:38 <Pippin> squirrel.anthrochat.net is now a wholly owned
                         subsidiary of PippinCorp, by the way.
Mar 10 00:08:56 <Pippin> only I haven't got round to filing Foxdie's
                         name off the motd yet ;p

Mar 10 04:47:48 <SoleiDragoness> Hmm
Mar 10 04:48:00 <SoleiDragoness> So is Foxdie still part of the admin
                                 core? o.o
Mar 10 10:28:07 <PipAsleep> admin core?  (or corps?)  dunno; he's not
                            running a server any more and I haven't
                            noticed him oper up in a while.  He might
                            do so if/when he connects to squirrel again.
