Server update

oak and ash have both been updated to latest stable version of Debian (stretch). This should mark a big improvement over the software that was running on them, which was becoming quite dated.

As a result, several services have been affected by the update and have required some maintenance. These are:

• Web services
• MySQL
• Matrix
• mail (and spam filtering)
• SSH
• XMPP (jabber)

Outstanding issues are:

• The XMPP server is down and will require some work to fix.

I will update below as and when problems are resolved. If you notice anything awry, please let me know immediately.
