code in the ruins

Today I registered a new domain - mogrify.org - and began the process of migrating my websites to my new host, Dreamhost. The now-venerable mogrify.homelinux.org, as you may have noticed, redirects to the shiny new code.mogrify.org. I'll be moving other things across in the coming days and fixing problems whenever I notice them.

I've been wanting to host offsite for some time, since I'm currently running three separate sites on a single, beige Pentium III Dell box in my study. This is not exactly the most robust of setups, and there have been issues with power and network outages.

I expect to love Dreamhost for the same reason I love hosting at home - because I genuinely enjoy administering Linux systems, and Dreamhost gives you a lot of control - shell access, .htaccess files, log files, email accounts, etc., as well as a whole ton of other options.

So, the dream is becoming a reality.
