`30.Jan.2005`	Aminet: Status Update September last year wuarchive.wustl.edu, the server hosting the main Aminet archive us.aminet.net, went down due to a broken RAID controller. Since then, Aminet doesn't accept uploads. Despite the original announcement that wuarchive.wustl.edu would only host "sponsered" archives once the server would be up and running again, us.aminet.net went back online November last year. Uploads are still not being processed though. Approached by amiga-news.de, Mark Bober from Washington University (wuarchive.wustl.edu) explained that the backup that was used to re-establish us.aminet.net is incomplete - several scripts are broken or missing. This information has been forwarded to Aminet admin Urban Mueller, who will be cooperating with Mark Bober to repair the damage on Aminet's main server or help to establish a new main server. Further news will be announced soon. (cg) (Translation: cg) [News message: 30. Jan. 2005, 20:34] [Comments: 1 - 31. Jan. 2005, 23:34] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]
