***Carolina Bronco Members***(Site Back Up)

[blazinchuck]

This is just a notice to explain what has happened to our site. Wed. night the company we use to host our site lost all their servers/hard drives. Paul, our web guy has been working non stop to restore our site. There is a lot involved in bring a site back up and he has many sites to do. We are not the only fish in his pond. I guess it's safe to say the back-up didn't work either. I appolgize for any incovenience this has caused. Please be patient with us. I will send out an email to the list when all has been restored,Chuck

FYI. . . . . .hardware failure AND compromised site.

this was sent to Paul...

Hi Paul,

Thank you for contacting OLM. This is an update to let you know we still have your previous drive from the compromised server and can mount this drive for you which possibly contains more recent data than your backup drive and the databases you are looking for. However, we would like to make you aware with this disclaimer we are not liable for any problems or issues which may arise from copying files from the previous "compromised" drive to the new server. In the event the copying of these files from the previous drive to the new server creates a problem, and you require the server being re-imaged again, you will be subject to fees again to have this process implemented. Please note: you will have to "agree" with the above statement in order for us to proceed and mount the "previous compromised drive". If you "do not agree" we can "not" proceed with mounting the "previous compromised drive" and you will have to rely on restoring sites/data from your c!
urrent mounted backup drive. We await your reply on how we should proceed.


Regards,
Omar

Thanks OMAR%) ...in otherwords"Welcome to Phucksville-Population: YOU!"

I stopped by Paul's house on the way home to see whats up. Apparently, the last "back-up" was in Sept. But,they called Paul-to tell him they found more info and data. This could mean we lose some or alot of our data(ie.post,topics,threads,members,passwords,usernames,etc.) Sh*t I dont want to have to go through again!I'm really hating somethings right now,Chuck

Thats why I let Network Solutions host my site so if anything happens it is on them.It costs 75 Bucks per year and it is their equipment to repair /replace.

I use the design it yourself 5 page website package and you can add services and options to it also.It is as simple as can be or as complicated as you want it if you want to edit HTML code.http://www.networksolutions.com/ shows the basic stuff and then you can add and subtract as needed.I do need to update the look of the SEB site but it works for now.

I already miss the site! I know you have alot of hard work invested in it. Hopefully, it will work out and not too much will be lost. All this attention may draw more attention to the site. When it does come back up, maybe more people will visit. It is a site were all Bronco people should visit!

I passed the word to Ron, Clint, and Doc over at the Carolina Fords site. They were worried and disappointed that it was down.
