Server update

Update of the Server situation: It is running again, but NOT online. The boot drive is being formatted for a clean OS install. Need I remind everyone of the time it takes to format and set up a SCSI drive? Several more items had to be replaced; SCSI card, network card, PS etc. One of the resident drives is in an unhealthy state and may be replaced too. This has been a nightmare, but at least the machine is now working. TS users please be patient and understand your logs ins will be anonymous. The internal structure will change, but the passwords will remain the same. Will post later when it actually goes back online. Later

UPDATE - 5:20pm - Just brought the Web Server back online. Teamspeak is installed, but the Server is doing some very critical updates at the moment so it will not be available for an hour or so. Just so damn glad it is running again and hooking to the internet. This happened after trying 4 different NICs and the one that worked is an old Realtek WIN network card! This will certainly change to a better piece of hardware as it's discovered why, etc. Bear with me...I need a drink.

UPDATE - 9:04PM - With Ashby Rhett Culpepper, III, Esq., help the Teamspeak server is back online. Please call if you have trouble connecting. The speed seems better. Thanks to everyone for their patience, support and help. Y'all da bomb!
