Session Ident: Sirius
[19:02:25] <Jack> hi
[19:02:35] <Sirius> Hello?
[19:03:36] <Jack> hey, ankit came on to my irc network the other day after speaking to my brother/an oper on my irc network, so i came to check you out
[19:04:02] <Sirius> Sounds good.
[19:04:03] <Jack> just wanted to know who actually ran the place, as i can't see any chain except the poor level of output via /ircops
[19:04:21] <Sirius> Ankit is considered the main "net coordinator"
[19:04:29] <Jack> i thought so
[19:04:31] <Sirius> He syncs us all together
[19:04:40] <Sirius> I run half of the network, my server
[19:04:47] <Jack> solar
[19:04:48] <Sirius> Lord_Vamont and Abhi run the other half
[19:04:51] <Sirius> Indeed.
[19:04:53] <Jack> from your host solarspeeds? or something
[19:04:54] <Jack> :p
[19:05:01] * Jack has been nosing about :P
[19:05:03] <Sirius> That would be correct, my friend
[19:05:10] <Sirius> fusedhosting...
[19:05:13] <Sirius> Snoop, eh?
[19:05:39] <Jack> fusedhosting, thats our dedicated server that builds our hub and services for my irc network
[19:05:48] <Sirius> Yep
[19:05:50] <Sirius> I like your site
[19:05:56] <Sirius> Its a bit more streamlined that mine.
[19:06:06] <Jack> i was actually thinking or putting a talk into action about a possible link, maybe. maybe maybe
[19:06:21] <Jack> well our dedi is our baby :P we spend $237/mo on it
[19:06:22] <Sirius> How many servers strong are you?
[19:06:44] <Jack> 1 leaf, 1 hub, a new leaf is being tested for uptime etc, privately
[19:06:48] <Sirius> Ok
[19:06:52] <Jack> and we will be buying an aussie ircd within the next month
[19:07:02] <Sirius> A link looks quite enterprising
[19:07:06] <Sirius> We're looking for an AU server
[19:07:07] <Sirius> Actually
[19:07:12] <Sirius> So that'd be interesting
[19:07:13] <Jack> not cheap :P
[19:07:16] <Sirius> I know it
[19:07:18] <Jack> :(
[19:07:21] <Jack> heh
[19:07:22] <Sirius> I'm looking for colo/dedi in AU
[19:07:28] <Sirius> It's quite a large bill
[19:07:33] <Jack> i'd never bother with an aus dedi
[19:07:35] <Sirius> Link to your net?
[19:07:38] <Jack> horrendous bandwidth charges
[19:07:40] <Jack> irc.simpleirc.com
[19:08:18] <Sirius> Yea
[19:08:24] <Sirius> IRCds in AU are insane
[19:08:26] <Jack> well our main server is an intel core xeon 3.0ghz (4 x cpu) which is nice
[19:08:33] <Sirius> Indeed
[19:08:38] <Jack> well, possibly to cut down my fellow netadmin
[19:08:45] <Jack> will run it off his home linux server
[19:08:51] <Jack> but its not really 'home'
[19:09:00] <Jack> extremely stable, good line
[19:09:03] <Sirius> I know what you mean
[19:09:09] <Sirius> I run a few business servers from home
[19:09:11] <Sirius> Not for hosting
[19:09:14] <Sirius> For another busines of mine
[19:09:17] <Jack> but tbh, you wouldn't get anywhere better
[19:09:18] <Sirius> They're very stable and reliable
[19:09:25] <Sirius> I'm sure he's capable
[19:09:29] <Jack> i'd never run one off my pc
[19:09:31] <Jack> and im uk
[19:09:45] <Jack> its just not pratical for my line really, even though its upto 8megs
[19:09:46] <Sirius> I'm supercharged
[19:10:00] <Jack> mines still a typical home connection, that goes a bit cranky sometimes
[19:10:01] <Jack> :P
[19:10:04] <Sirius> Yea
[19:10:05] <Jack> hence why i use our bnc
[19:10:07] <Sirius> I'm a fiber
[19:10:14] <Sirius> Crazy speeds
[19:10:22] <Sirius> [Crazy prices.]
[19:10:23] <Jack> cool :)
[19:10:27] <Jack> lol I bet
[19:10:35] <Sirius> So, if we were to speak of a link
[19:10:38] <Jack> Overall_Ranking
[19:10:38] <Jack> SimpleIRC
[19:10:38] <Jack> Ranked #584
[19:10:40] <Sirius> What were you thinking of?
[19:10:53] <Jack> well first i want to get to know all the opers
[19:10:55] <Jack> and your servers
[19:11:01] <Sirius> Ok
[19:11:14] <Jack> and for you lot to do the same
[19:11:32] <Sirius> I'll be back in a bit. Apologies.
[19:11:37] <Jack> no point going anywhere if even 1 of us doesn't feel comfortable
[19:11:41] <Sirius> I need to deal with a customer probelm.
[19:11:42] <Jack> kk
[19:11:45] <Jack> i gtg soon
[19:11:52] <Jack> I have some spanish students coming over
[19:11:54] <Sirius> Alright
[19:11:55] <Sirius> Heh
[19:11:56] <Sirius> Nice
[19:11:59] <Jack> and I must pop out for 30mins to meet up
[19:12:02] <Sirius> You can find me at david@solarspeeds.com
[19:12:04] <Jack> and make sure they check into the hotel fine
[19:12:07] <Sirius> But I'll be on at a later time
[19:12:12] <Jack> kk
[19:12:45] <Sirius> But
[19:12:46] <Jack> there is one first impression that i haven't liked
[19:12:52] <Sirius> Who is that?
[19:12:55] <Jack> is the sense of a lack of organisation in your main channel
[19:13:00] <Sirius> Yea
[19:13:03] <Sirius> We're going a bit...
[19:13:06] <Jack> and we have +G on
[19:13:07] <Sirius> Wonky for right now
[19:13:11] <Jack> to stop swearing
[19:13:21] <Jack> as we strictly forbid it in our main public channel
[19:13:24] <Jack> not to be annoying
[19:13:28] <Jack> but it sets a good image
[19:13:45] <Sirius> i understand
[19:13:47] <Sirius> i'll bring it up
[19:13:49] <Sirius> I agree
[19:13:56] <Jack> great, thanks
[19:14:06] <Sirius> Ok
[19:14:15] <Sirius> Well, I think it would be quite a good idea
[19:14:16] <Jack> and if we merged, i'm not fussy who the hub is, or who has the services
[19:14:23] <Jack> but they would be each elsewhere
[19:14:28] <Sirius> Indeed
[19:14:30] <Jack> so one of us had the hub, the other the services
[19:14:36] <Sirius> We'll most likely take servicesd
[19:14:44] <Jack> k well
[19:14:46] <Sirius> Because that is a hobby of mine
[19:14:47] <Sirius> If you will
[19:14:51] <Jack> as long as the db merge goes fine
[19:14:55] <Jack> i don't see a problem
[19:14:56] <Sirius> I'd imagine it would
[19:15:04] <Jack> but i would require us to make a script
[19:15:07] <Jack> to backup the db's to our service
[19:15:11] <Jack> and a services
[19:15:12] <Sirius> But before we get too far into this, lets have a joint staff meeting
[19:15:15] <Jack> ready to be booted
[19:15:21] <Jack> if you had a problem your side
[19:15:31] <Jack> we'd require access to all your ssh, as you would have access to ours
[19:15:35] <Jack> for reboots or issues
[19:15:37] <Sirius> Ok
[19:15:39] <Jack> again, something to discuss
[19:15:43] <Sirius> Alright
[19:15:44] <Jack> not essential
[19:15:45] <Sirius> Make a list
[19:15:50] <Sirius> Of what you'd think would be important
[19:15:53] <Sirius> I'll query our staff as well
[19:15:55] <Jack> its hard for us to make an oper meeting
[19:15:55] <Sirius> But I need to run
[19:15:56] <Jack> kk
[19:16:00] <Sirius> Sorry, again
[19:16:02] <Jack> np
[19:16:03] <Sirius> I don't mean to be short
[19:16:05] <Jack> heh
