Hello Everyone,

With recent issues on the server, some of which were created by outside sources and some regretfully by myself; I will be "Restoring" the server to its original state as of Nov. 14, 2012...
I have been consulting with higher authorities to get many issues resolved and we have come to this "Restore" as the best option for everything that has occurred...
With this said, I have to regretfully inform everyone that I am losing ANY data and posts/threads after Nov. 14...

They cannot give me an exact time for completion, but do state everything should be up and running within 24 hours

I do not know when the actual down time will begin, but should anyone wish to contact me, I have a temp email: beschen1@gmail.com

Thank you for your patience!
Keep you fingers & toes crossed ! ! !

Jim

I will have the database backed up just prior to the recycle/restore process, which could take some time, and will import everything so there may be no loss of information provided I can get to retrieve the DB before SMC is back up and running and everyone starts posting again...

Hello Everyone,

First and foremost, Thank You for your patience!
We are Back Online ! ! !

With that said, I was able to get everything back with one exception, that I have found so far, any attachment made after Nov. 14 may not be available/present...

I had one hell-of-a-time getting the server restored, etc, etc...

I still have more work to accomplish, but I'll get there...

Wheeeeewwwww ! ! ! I'm glad that is over ! ! !

Thank you Jim!!!!   Yours is an often thankless task.  Being in IT, I can empathise with your situation.

Well done on the restoration!  smile
