Looks like my comments are broken.  They were working because I had notifications 2 and a half hours ago.  Thanks to Guy who gave me a heads up.

UPDATE: Comments now fixed.

Last night I upgraded the version of DasBlog I'm running here to 2.0. Everything is looking OK. If you are reading this then posting still works.

...then you are browsing my freshly migrated blog.

Previously I posted about the preparations I had to make so I could turn off my server and put it in a container for shipping.  I had several offers for temporary hosting - thanks to all of those who were so ready to help.

I ended up migrating to OrcsWeb Managed Complex Hosting.

We had a couple of niggles getting dasbBlog to play nicely in a hosted environment, but the team at OrcsWeb were just fantastic.  They were responsive and very helpful in the troubleshooting.

Big ups to the team at OrcsWeb for all the assistance during the setup.

If it works out well I may simply leave the blog hosted there from now on. 

Things are going to come down to the wire in my exit from New Zealand - I can tell.  I have been snowed organizing things, selling off stuff that is surplus to requirements and tossing out other stuff.

One of the immediate issues is around finding a place to park my blog for a month or so.  You see I run my own server and host my blog and an email server on that.  This is all well and good and gives me plenty of control over my own blog destiny, but it poses a wee problem when you have to take the server out of the rack, box it up, put it in a container and ship it across the Tasmania Sea.  I could not get a container with a broadband connection - what's with that!?!  :)

The mail server is easy - I am going to copy Nick Randolph at Softeq and move the domain to a hosted Exchange environment for a few months and migrate back when I am up and running across the ditch.  There dose not seem to be such a thing as Hosted DasBlog, so the blog presents a bit more of a problem.  Right now I'm looking for web hosts that can accommodate my blog for a similar period of time - at least.  I may move to external hosting permanently...

This is a test of posting to DasBlog from Office 2007 (RTM) I initiated the post in OneNote 2007 and it kicked it off to Word to be published.

If your are reading this it worked!

Update: Wahoo!

I have an issue with comments on this blog at the moment.  Basically hitting the "Save Comment" button just does nothing.  This only seems to affect some IE/OS combinations.

IE7 on Vista - does not work.

IE7 on Windows 2003 works.

Looking into other.  Appologies if you have issue posting comments.  I hope to have this resolved soon.  

Thanks to those who have brought this to my attention.
