We are back

Post by Uncle Jesse »

Mostly!

I'm still cleaning things up after we experienced a near-catastrophic low-level hardware failure.

I took the opportunity to switch service providers and I believe everything is restored cleanly.

Suddenly yesterday random files I've never seen - much less touched - started getting corrupted. It was a low-level disk issue and required a complete rebuild. So as I said, I took the opportunity to switch service providers.

Please report any issues.

If not for all the work I've done the past few months - especially with extensive backups - things could have been a lot uglier.

I'm half-Irish. I've mastered that first part.

:thumbup: Uncle Jesse.
I'm glad you have it sorted out.
Any longer and I'd have begun experiencing withdrawal symptoms.
