Hey Fellas, I will be out of town until early June (going back home for a little bit since I just wrapped up school) and won't be around to tend to the server itself. However, I am installing remote desktop software on the computer, so hopefully, I will be able to control the server while I am gone. So, again, I will be out of town from May 20th until May 31st (most likely). If the server goes down: don't fret! I will do my best to get it back online ASAP. I will be logging into Higher Ground from home (my brother, Evil Yoshimitsu, plays on our server), so don't think I am just going to disappear for two weeks! Anyways, I hope all is well, and that you all have a great Holiday weekend. Cheers! ;D

Ok, there shouldn't be any problems when I am away! I just setup a System Wide VNC server, which launches automatically as a service under Mac OS X. That means, I can restart the server, even if there is a power outage. Cheers!

Just updated the server thanks to VNC! Everything ran very smoothly, and I shouldnt have any problems restarting the server if it goes down (Dragon has my phone number to call me when it goes down). Have a good weekend fellas.

SON OF A BITCH! I think the server either just stalled, or the internet went down....grrrrrr. I am praying that it was just the internet, because otherwise, there won't be Higher Ground until June 1st! Ahhhhh! It figures, too: I get done with school, and all I wanna do is play....and what happens??? My eff'in server crashes when I am 300 miles away from it.

Still on the phone waiting to talk with Time Warner tech support....I want to know if the internet just went down, or if the server kicked the bucket. They did say that due to inclamite weather, they are experiencing long downtimes and higher user complaints....so hopefully, this will just be temporary, and Higher Ground will be back later.

I just got off the phone with TW and they said that there are no apparent issues with the modem in the area.
NOT GOOD.
I will try to call up my landlord tomorrow, and see if she can have someone run over to my apartment to turn the power on then off....god, lets hope she will do it!

Yes, it does SUCK.
However, I just called up my Landlord, and she said that she will ask the Technican if he will either shut the power off to my apartment quickly (since my computer restarts automatically after a power failure) or send him over to manually hit the Computer Shutdown/Restart button.
She said she would call me back in a little bit, so I am just waiting on her response.

Ok, here is the deal.
I just got in touch with one of my buddies who lives near my apartment (where the server is). He said that he will go over there, tomorrow, and have my landlord let him inside.
So, with that said, Higher Ground should be back online tomorrow afternoon around 1:00 PM EST. ;D

Aye, it had crashed when I was asleep I guess. Just logged in remotely and restarted the server, it is back online now. The fastest way to report that the server is down: login to KDX and MESSAGE MY ASS!
