Farnsworth server restarted (resolved)

The network interface on the “farnsworth” Web server stopped responding at 6:38 AM Pacific time today, and the server needed to be manually restarted by our data center staff. The server was unavailable for 17 minutes, causing an interruption of service for Web sites on that server. It also prevented users of that server from reading incoming e-mail (such e-mail was delayed and delivered after the outage).

Other servers were not affected.

We sincerely apologize to anyone affected by this problem.
