Well, I am getting all test mails through the IEEE and ACM domains,
which really just forward to my own domains. I control the DNS and SMTP, IMAP servers in these domains, so if it were my mail service I would know about it as all the domains are on my dedicated server in "The Planet" Dallas4 Data center on RHE OS. This server is not running HTTP services.
I suppose I could simply push WebDAV in the .conf file and run a webDAV server on my server. That is something I hadn't thought of, and I think that is my solution. Thanks for pointing me down an obvious path I completely missed. ;)
Agree, primary image is on the MBP which is backed up nightly. As for Bonjour local, I work in a secure facility where running any WIFI network will get you immediately terminated and walked out the door by armed security. All 802.11x protocols are continuously scanned for it. So turning WIFI on is not an option. I can access an external WebDAV server since my MBP is on a Verizon 3G Broadband connection but not connected to the infrastructure in any way. So my backup will be I have to work off my MBP as a master until I can get my server back up if it crashes. Thanks for the tips and inadvertently leading me to a fairly simple WebDAV solution that works for me. :cool:

And not to put too fine a point on it, but we out here in forum land still don't know if the lack of return email is because they haven't sent any...

My suggestion would be to make a practice of working on one device or another, such that you always have (at least) one with a complete, up-to-date copy of your data. Then if your service provider goes out, you can simply switch to Bonjour with a ad hoc wireless network, or a trial account with someone providing webDAV service, and regenerate your setup from the device that had the latest bits. If you make a couple of changes on one machine, some more on another, and yet others on the iPhone, all without syncing everything up, it will be more of a headache to jump ship either temporarily or permanently |
