So What happened?

I will give a summary of what happend:

IRC Goes Down, Tuesday.

At this point I begin tracking down my ISP. I located him once, but the server never came back.

Wednesday, I find his wife and she tells me she is going to fire up servers.

Thursday - Friday, unable to find anyone.. anywhere. Friday, PSU main goes down, then our Voice servers go down.

Saturday, My contact (Owner of the Company) is completly gone. His wife informs he he is gone. Nobody knows his location, and he didnt tell anyone. At this point I go into recovery mode and do everything I can to get our servers back into my hands.

Late Saturday, I hook up with a new ISP. He starts moving hardware to his rack down in the Ashburn,VA Datacenter. I delt with him on and off all night and early morning of Sunday.

Sunday, I got the new IP's and started all our DNS transferrs. Thats where we are now, welcome home

IRC is still unknown. We are not sure where that server is located, however my new ISP is trying to locate it. More news as it becomes available.

During the entire downtime, I only found one good post in the OFs.

You should contact the author and have it added to PSU.
