Wiki access problems.

I have tried to access the wiki tonight & it keeps displaying the cannot display the web page window. Are there any problems that anyone's aware off?

Yes, the server is unreachable at the moment. I have informed the datacentre, but it'll be tomorrow before I find out more, I'm not waiting up for them

I do keep backups, so if the server has died it's not the end of the world.

Thank you for the clarification. Just asked the same question in "outworld". Hope it will be back soon.

The power supply had failed. It's back up now with a new one.

The WIKI seems to be down again. A whois and ping doesn't work.

Ah, the man with da voodoo, that he do, so well. I need to have a chat to him about screwed up passwords, but that's for later as he appears to have bigger fish to fry.

Go Mr Winston! Enforce your rightous will on that metal mother!

I don't know what's wrong with the server at the moment, it responds to ping but otherwise doesn't function, a call is in with the datacentre to take a look at it again.

Sounds like top digit hardware solution to me. Bink! (Lights go off) Count to ten...... Bink! (Lights come on).

I'm afraid it's still not fixed, I'll give them a call tomorrow and see what's up...

What are peoples thoughts on a fail over? I'm not sure on the size of the wiki but a static mirror here and there just so new captains don't see a 404 might be something we might want to think about.

Server fall over start to smell baaad.
