backup backup backup

hi, hell day today, one of my most profitable sites got attacked and the server automatically deleted all files for excessive usage of bandwidth !

the site has over 1000 pages.

thankfullly the database was backed up and the files were backed up on my computer and also the servers computer on saturday, we then found the reason and restored the website but it did take a few hours.

this could have been a $30K disaster !

i'm only posting so it may make you think about your "fire plan"

Wow... tough love with the server setup! Nice recovery, Tim.

Yea, we got nailed in the DistributeIT disaster...man costs us 6 months work and MEGA stress...

Agree... get those backup's (of everything including, ausreg codes, passwords, files, client details) all backed up and off site.

Cheers
