Still not working here.

And, its not going to work for a while, Don.  

Restoring something is a heck of a lot harder than starting out from scratch and just eliminating everything for a fresh installation.

As of right now, I have everything back to 25 September backed up that can be uploaded to another server.  That includes message base and pictures.  Now it is just a matter of finding the right provider that we can do this with.

But, the data is intact (to 25 September 2010)  and SSW will be back on line as soon as we can.

When the site is restored, we will make the announcement.

Gee, come on huh.

Relax, guys.  Bob Kruger is tenacious and very resourceful.  Where there's a way, he'll find it.  Give the guy a break....he does this part-time in addition to his day job.

Mike;

Thanks - I appreciate the vote of confidence.

In a compressed archive, there are over 1.3 GB of pictures and messages that span over 10 years of SSW activity.  I had the old system back up every day on the server is was hosted from, and downloaded it to a server I have access to in Atlanta once a week (Saturday mornings).  Worst case scenario is we lost three or four days of posts due to the meltdown of SSW's former service provider.  So, everything from 0545 25 September 2010 is intact.  In fact, the archive is downloaded here at my house to two systems, one at work, and on a portable HD.  Not that I am paranoid, but I will probably burn it to a DVD today...

The tricky part is now finding a provider that will give me the system access that I need to restore the backup.  Leonard and I thought we had found one a couple of days ago, but we are getting some "waffling" on what they will do.  No worries.  I would rather find the right service provider than have to do this half *ss.  

And I want to personally thank Bob Storick for allowing me the bandwidth here to explain the situation and outline the recovery plan.  Sparky knows what this is like, as he went through a system meltdown a while back that was painful and time consuming.

Thanks Bob S. - When we finally meet, first couple of rounds are on me.  (You too, Mike, if you ever stumble your way back to Benning.... :-)  )

Can't speak for Bob (Storick), but although my own return to Benning is highly unlikely, you can bet that the first couple rounds will be on me....for all you've done (and are currently doing) for us.

Hmmmmm, mine has been screwed up since then also. I thought it was microsofts updates. I tried to re-format, but that didnt work.  I contacted microsoft tech support. I cant get full screen,  the microsoft tech tried and he couldn't fix it either. He said the vaio disc was the only thing to fix those drivers. I didnt have it, so I ordered one. I hope that works.      jim

All's well that ends well, up and running just fine for me.

[don Burke]

Apparently didn't end well!  More waiting time, but it will be there sooner or later I guess.

[don Burke]

Finally up and running.  L Neumann has posted a good explanation of the whys .

[Shultzie]

Sorry to hear about Newmans website and hope they are on line SAP.
..This wasn't my fault this time

[john e. holliday]

Hey Schutzie,  did you get my E-mail this AM?  Was going to say something about you kids being slow getting the news about SSW.

[Gerald Schamp]

Hey Sparky, how come I can't answere messages. They come to my email, but you are killing the answer.

[RC Storick]

PM's received here via email have never been able to answer on your email as the forward from here does not include an email address. Messages from here must be answered here.

[wwwarbird]

Hey Sparky, how come I can't answere messages. They come to my email, but you are killing the answer.

 It's not Sparky "killing" anything. I'm pretty sure what you're seeing in your Email is really just a "heads-up" notification that you have received a PM on the forum. Even though you can see and read the message in that notification you still have to reply to it and continue the communication through the forum.

asking a question is ok but really? in a ten year old necro thread about stuka stunt....I though maybe there was new info on latest site loss
