So true to form I used up all of my time, the box is up though and seems
to be, more or less, functional.  There are a few things I'm still
tracking down and fixing but I don't think I'll need to reboot it again
so lets declare it "open for business".

If there's further issues or I need to run a reboot I'll send another
e-mail out.

Thanks for your patience!

| When: Tue Oct 20 15:00:00 UTC 2009 - Tue Oct 20 21:00:00 UTC 2009
| Why: OS Upgrades and general maintenance
