OK, one of my two Linux servers suffered a hard drive problem. It used to fail every few weeks, but recently it was failing once a week, sometimes only a couple days between incidents. Earlier this week Server Matrix diagnosed the problem, and tonight they replaced the drive.
To minimize the disturbance, I have paid an extra $70 to keep the old drive in the system long enough to transfer all the files over. I hadn't originally decided to do this until I realized just how many files I neglected to backup properly.
Anyway, I have restored DNS, and am working to bring n00bstories.com website back online, home.n00bstories.com IRC server, and then the lesser-used services like TeamSpeak and the radio.
I will also be quite tired for work tomorrow, but if I don't do this work tonight, I wouldn't be able to do it until tomorrow evening... MAYBE.
I'm quite sorry about all the problems lately, and I hope that this new drive will resolve the prior issues and was the correct diagnosis.
I'm the bawss.
