Thanks!

It took 3 weeks of extensive planning and testing building up to 2 days of VERY long hours. Most of the "behind the scenes" work was done to enhance server security and reliability.

You would be amazed at the number of attempts we get on a daily basis to hack into our server. In the first 24 hours my test server was running on the internet, there were 40,000 attempts to break in using brute-force attack methods. I tried to make sure this server was as secure as possible before the dns servers pointed to it.
