Hello,
ntp0.sfo.bitfolk.com [209.237.247.192] was removed from service
quite a while ago and yesterday was finally decommissioned. If you
you still have it in your NTP configuration (usually /etc/ntp.conf)
then you should remove it. It won't cause any real harm to leave it
there, it just won't do anything any more.
Recommended NTP servers can be found here:
http://bitfolk.com/customer_information.html#toc_3_NTP___London__UK
which is probably what you already have.

Hi,
As you may be aware, Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) is due to be
released today.
We have not yet had chance to test an upgrade from 10.04 (Lucid
Lynx) to 12.04, so whilst 12.04 is an LTS release I must warn you
that we are not aware of any customer who is successfully running
it. Unless you feel like being a pioneer it may be best to wait a
little while before trying such an upgrade.
In the next few days I hope to be able to add 12.04 to the net
installer:
https://tools.bitfolk.com/wiki/Self-serve_net_install
which would make it available for new installs and new
self-installs. If I run into a problem with it then it may take
longer, but I don't really expect it to be a problem (Debian testing
works fine, for example).
I'll send another announce email if and when there is more news
about 12.04's availability and use at BitFolk. Meanwhile if any
brave customers would like to try upgrades and document it on the
wiki that would be most welcome.
Cheers,
Andy

Hi,
The rescue environment has been given a bit of an upgrade and is now
documented:
https://tools.bitfolk.com/wiki/Rescue
It's still launched the same way and works pretty much the same way,
the only real difference is that it's up-to-date and now based on
the debian-live project so will be much easier to keep up-to-date.
Cheers,
Andy

Hi,
A bunch of alerts for a.authns.bitfolk.com were sent out a few
minutes ago. These were sent in error and don't represent any actual
problem.
I'm in the process of reconfiguring some software on that system and
the monitoring momentarily couldn't connect, so sent out alerts to
that effect. No actual service has been disrupted.
Cheers,
Andy
