alphared, or at least the people who are dissolving them.

I did get the import done last night - took a couple hours after a hiccup or 2 with the account name, but it looks like everything is done. I just need to update DNS this morning and we should be smoove like buttah smile

I see at this time their web site is off line.

I'm glad you got your stuff off and on a new server in time.

I guess this is one good reason to have this type of a back up.

Even though I own my own servers and they are actually in my house and all that I still make constant backups.

*** Refer to the photo's posted the the gallery. It looks like a big black refrigerator with a bunch of crap mounted in it.

I kept backups, even more so since they started collapsing at the end of October. The issue was a lot of us thought they were trying to pull things together, not go through chap 7 and liquidate. It's more than a little pain to download, upload, install, etc so many sites in a short time.

I did manage to migrate everything to my new host from within plesk - 19 sites (including their databases) in about an hour :thumbsup: No site was down more than a couple hours including DNS changes smile

My new host - Future Host - year-end special got me a VPS w/2GB of guaranteed ram and 4k GB of bandwidth for ~$60/month - not too bad, compared to my overkill dedicated server (for my needs).
