The server had frozen and had to be physically restarted !

I'm having a power bar installed today or tomorrow, this means we can reboot the server ourselves :D

You appear to have gone through some sort of time-warp; prior to the server crash, any posts I made would show as being 12 minutes behind the time that I actually made them; now, they appear to be 4 minutes ahead of the time I posted them! :mad:

E.g., I posted this at 2:15pm, yet it shows as having been posted at 2:19pm!

I'm good, work has been so busy I don't get on as much as I used to, nor have I had time to do anything to the sport. Yes I still have it though. its been dry stored for the last two years though.

We use ipmi/kvm's over ip for our servers as they are located in Gemrnay and France respectively, its a good idea to have them. Especially with so many zone addicts!

Any idea what caused the outage yet though? If you have RAID drives check they are still working. And the backups!

I 'think' that was deliberately taken down from the 'net a while ago when the 'real' Zone was down and a lot of un-moderatable bitchfesting went on :)

Well done Steve, what does it feel like to have control over so many peado's, perverts and in some case's E30 enthusiasts?
