I tried to upgrade Iglulik’s nfs server to fix a common problem with NFS becoming resynchronized and it broke things worse, the 17.10 version won’t work with NFSv2 needed by Eskimo and some servers I use for user administration.  To make things work Ubuntu has removed 17.04 because it’s past end-of-life so I can’t easily go back.  I’ve got an install disk so I am trying to extract the necessary packages from it but it’s not easy.

    So the long and short is until I get this fixed, the eskimo.com shell server won’t be operational and I won’t be able to credit user accounts.

     My cat has also crashed again and I don’t think he is going to make it this time.  He is basically non-responsive now, I think his central nervous system is pretty much shut down and there isn’t anything left but to put him down.  Great cat, really a drag.

     All in all this weekend has been shit.  I guess it wasn’t so good for Jesus so could be worse I suppose.  At least Jesus resurrected, kind of doubt my cat will.
