EfreakBNC is a small, free BNC server run by the same individual as RecalledToIRC. Signups are not open, and likely never will be again. News and information will be posted on this blog. EfreakBNC is run by Efreak.
Recent Downtime
Sorry about the recent downtime. Paypal decided to randomly change my payment type to an e-Check, remove half my attached payment options, and to recommend to my vps hosting solution (x10hosting) that they wait 10 days to give me service. I have taken this opportunity to upgrade the server to the latest version of ubuntu, move the website over to tumblr, and perform various other long-put-off maintenance on the server. For the first time since moving to x10vps, I am also now able to access the serial console. I am having some problems with the new upgrade, however. I would like any of you with any experience with virtualization and/or ubuntu server to consider the problem below and let me know if you have any ideas for me.
Problem: Ubuntu is not truly compatible with the OpenVZ virtualization solution in use and now that I have upgraded I must bring SSH and other services up manually from the serial console rather than trusting the system to bring them up.
Tumblr Account Created
This blog is designed to be hosted entirely separately from the bouncer itself, including DNS. Therefore, if the server goes down, check Twitter or Tumblr. I will try to post both at once, and eventually I will place a twitter feed on this page. I also run my personal tumblr, and the one for the now-defunct RecalledToIRC server.
Edit: RecalledToIRC is no longer defunct.
