WordPress update
has just been done – to version 2.0.9. as usual; no problems, once the right files were re-retrieved from backup. Anyway: the classes.zip in this version has been corrected so now runs the same version as can be downloaded from the WordPress.org site.
version 2.1.2 has been downloaded and will be tested before it’s been put into production. Glad I didn’t isntall it yet – the site has been hacked and a few files altered by the hacker. Time they get a VMS box 🙂
Update of VMS
has been postponed a few weeks, I need some more time to prepare the installation of the update. It’s not that important, so I decided I can take the “risk”.
Mail problems
that I found a few weeks ago: VMS Mail, or better: the standard SMTP, cannot handle “numbered domains” we have over here: sending mail /TO=user@name.number.nl generates an error, and I tried that with Quintara as well. Today I got a mail they’re wording on their own SMTP engine to overcome limitations in the “official” software, and enhance it with required facilities. But Quintara uses SWS that I abandoned. It’s not a real problem, since tha named domain will be dropped one of these days anyway.
