I appreciate all of your hard work! Great that you finally got it going.
Just as a side note. Our servers went deadsville the otherday (ones that I look after) and one call and 4 hours later everything went back up. Everything was down including e-mail!
Isn't it the job of the ISP to fix that. I do all of the programming, database management, user management .... etc.. but when things get pooched.. then they fix it.
Unless you're doing co-location. Would it be more cost effective to just run it on their servers?
I'm only saying this from experience. Years ago we used to run the servers here at work and had to manage, manage, manage, updated, patch, etc... Now I don't have to do that and just concentrate on the other side of things. Saved time. Even backups are done by them (and CRON) so we never lose any data.
Anyhow.. glad I can get my fix again.. and I know how you feel. I've been there. Even when ours went down I imagined talking to staff .. "umm. ya.. we lost everything.. sorry.." thankfully in both our cases.. that didn't happen!
