Ok so I'm pretty good at understatement.
Just for the curious out there this is what happened. Starting on around
Wed June 18th the Server began to spontaniously reboot itself. Attempts
were made to stablilze the server to no avail, and by Thursday, evening the
server refused to reboot at all. We then attempted to relocate the server to
a tempory home while new hardware was shipped to the site, unfortuatly the
drives refused to co-operate. A minor shipping snafu later the server was
restored on Sunday, June 22nd
As of now the leading guess is that the old motherboard decided to shuffle
off it mortal coil for reasons unknown at this time. I wont know for sure
until the old equipment is shipped back to me. As a side note all data was
recovered dating to June 18th, Unfortuatly due to the extended nature of the
outage some mail was lost in transit.
I do apologize for the outage, It shouldn't happen again anytime soon, but
since we're dealing with computers who knows <GRIM>
