What happened to IKRHS?

migueldiaz · 7th December 2008, 02:11 PM

I'm sorry to hear about the hacking of the website.

Hope it gets rebuilt soonest.

On the subject of making backups, I'm not expert on the subject. But I heard that the backup copy has to be located at least anywhere between 100 to 500 miles away, so that in case of a catastrophe, the backup has a better chance of surviving.

Just a thought ...

How disappointing

I wish the IKHRS crew all the best for their past and hopefully future work.

Kind regards,

Daniel

We have a new server, and believe the entire database is intact.
The search function isn't working yet, but it seems ungrateful to complain because the card catalog is missing, when you feared the whole library had burned down .
We want to thank all who shared their good wishes for our return.
Season's greetings to everyone. Please come visit, and celebrate our grand re-opening by posting a photo, a question, or just a shout out to say "Hello".

Chaps Ive noticed I cant reply to messages sent before the hack? {from Falx.}

Some Avaters are missing as well.

Apart from that it seems to be running well!
