There goes the evening...

Work's network seems to be down again. Tigereye isn't logging in, and I know damn well the error isn't on my end.

In the meantime, I've troubleshot the error on the network where no one was getting internet, and traced it to an IP address conflict. Only natural, as Enki used to be the master, and did not take kindly to getting told where to shove it by Tigereye, and Tigereye, for her part, was accustomed to not really taking charge. So I reassigned her the default gateway IP, and

Oh gods. Duuuuuhhhh. I just figured out the answer to Votania's question about the network and me working and all that. Dial-up. On Enki. Duh.

...then I changed Enki's final octet to 16 as punishment and commentary on his physical state. (Tarot fans, giggle here.)

So yeah. That'll work. I can just put the 56k modem that Enki used to wear back on him, and when I'm online working, I can just have the guys make Enki dial up and have them change their default gateways to 198.168.0.16 ... that should work very nicely. Very nicely indeed.

So Enki is a tower system, eh? Do you have another, stronger unit called Gil, perchance?

votania is the one who named Enki. Suggest that to her for her next upgrade... ;)

Additionally, Enki is on the verge of falling apart.

Enki by himself is a wild thing, prone to crashes and erratic behavior. You really need to slave him to Gil(gamesh) to get the full potential out of him.

That is, if one follows the legends. >grin

*snerk* We may just have to... because right now he's being very wild.
