Hello Justin,

Thanks for the update. I'll make note of the new IP for my configuration.

For the new server build, we can go sysvinit or systemd, use a distro or
use the targeted CLFS 3.1.0. We have a lot of tickets for updates and need
to commit to the git repo.

So use the cloud instance all the time, and for the new system we can
build and install daemons, configure and setup users/groups/daemons and
test that it operates like our current server. When it is fully functional
without any issues, put it into production!

Sincerely,

William Harrington
