It was free for us because a guy who was renting a server let us use it, but he stopped paying and didn't have the money to get the data off of it, so if we had wanted to keep the data we would have had to fork up $150.

Oh ok. Kinda sucks we had to pay to get the data because of him, though. X.x

I guess this is why it's best to make backups now X.x

So does that mean that 57o9 is down forever, and all our data on there is gone too?

For the latter, possibly (since no backup were made). However if the datacenter just nullrouted us or something I guess the data is still intact but just no longer available, and with no guarantee we will have access to it once again.

So far it seems more likely that 57o9 and the entire guy's server were taken down due to somebody using the server to test forkbombs or attacking other servers/hosts, and since the person involved was not banned permanently, then Juju or his hosting provider was held responsible.

So... What does that mean? Is that server down for good?

Apparently the server is online, but it's not linked with the domain name for some reason.
I can perfectly get into it using it's IP (188.40.106.223).

Yay, the server's back up! :w00t: Funny, though, a lot of the domains hosted on it (the Axe Wiki, Omnimaga Radio, ClrHome) work, but not 57o9.org, as jimbauwen noted ???

Really? Awesome! :D That was pretty long.

And the 57o9.org domain doesn't work because I messed up with the DNS, I'll change it back.

I'M glad it's back up, but I think the guys who are in charge of maintaining the server took far too long to put it back up considering the other guy you got the VPS from pays money for it.

You might want to look for another VPS provider in the near future, in case, because normally downtimes are solved within the next few hours or so. Or if the downtime was due to the DoS attacks two week ago or testing malicious scripts, then revoke FTP/ZNC/shell access for the people who performed such attack. The next time they might simply take down the server althogether.

When/If I get FTP access, I am definitely backing up everything from my website. That's what I'm concerned about too: people with websites on 57o9 losing data.

Yeah I'M glad everything remained intact. But there were no backups done so I hope there are some done in the future (monthly or bi-monthly at least from juju and more regularly from everyone who got accounts like me or you) in case.

I remember during the Jatol incident Cemetech losts about 3-4 months of posts (about 4000), topics, members and files because they were always reliable before they suddenly vanished off the face of the earth without warning customers. Their reliability prior that made Kerm do backups less often over time. Today I think backups runs on a regular and automated basis.

It's good to have regular backups for websites. Must take a while though (Gigs and Gigs of data).
