In a painfully typical version of "en casa de herrero, cuchillo de palo", and despite two previous disk crashes, i finally made a backup of my primary domain server earlier this week on a disk i procured about two months ago.

Ok, I'm cool with BOFHen telling me that they like playing with knives in a very personal and intimate way, and I'm not put off by folks whose sexual or political alignment is not mine, but running Windows on your own time? YKINOK.

Not that kind of "domain server", you nut. It seemed quicker than "the FreeBSD box that runs my name service, mail, Web site, and ssh sessions".
