Yes, the server crashed at 3am, and I just got it running about 12 hours later. Had to do a complete system restore from the previous incremental backup, which caused us to lose a few hours of data.

The complements were enough, thank you. You don't owe me anything.

We do have the new server purchased as of last week though, so THAT could not come at a better time! Actually, it figures that this machine has been running 3 yrs without a glitch, and it can't go one more week for the new server to be installed. What a bummer!

That is good, nay, great news. Are you saying it's running on the new server NOW? Inquiring minds want to know...

Must be my fault because I sent out the payment for the new server last week Those server gods don't like to know they are getting replaced

Good work Jack getting back what looked like a complete loss there for awhile Now I will sacrifice a chicken on an open fire as a gift to the mighty server god....pass the BBQ sauce please

Thanks for the hard work Jack, all of us appreciate it. Just be sure to sacrifice your first born son to the server gods to appease them.
