TruckersReport was offline for two days, here are the details

watch you dont end up with hairy palms from all that "solitaire".

thank you so much for all of your efforts to get the site back up and running. sounds like it was lots of fun. and might i add...*site name removed* is a sad sad substitute.

 

Thank you Sam for all the hard work you and all the other squaddies on TTR do to keep this site up and running!!!!


It is very MUCH appreciated!!!!!!!

 

Thanks for the update! I was beginning to think y'all didn't like me!

 

Thank you all for working so hard to get this site back up and running!! This site has been EXTREMELY helpful to me and I was completely lost without it. Again, thank you!!

 

I told my son about the problem. Of course, I do not understand his reply, but here it is.

Yep, in the ol' days we were all operator-owners, of servers.

Now it's more cost effective to let the server hosting company own the hardware because they keep it maintained. With virtual hosting, the hosting company spreads one server across multiple machines. (Costs per server have dropped from $400 to $100/mo in five years.)


We save further by using a third-party for external backups - CrashPlan.com. For personal backups, they also provide a free backup plan if you have two computers. Files are backed up between the two machines.

 

Now that right there was funny! You folks do a great job! A little break from the forum didn't hurt a thing.

 

I check three web sites often. This is the first one I check and the only one I can get to on my "smart" phone. I really missed it!

THANKS Mastertech!

 

Me too.............

 

as with anything electronic......a failure will happen sooner or later. the difference in a bad failure and a headache are the steps taken prior to any problem that might happen.
