Well tonight (this morning) 4:00 the server crashed. No idea what gives, possibly hardware possible software possibly denial of service, anyway I will probably know tonight what happened. Until that time, go out of your dungeons, and go grab a beer or something Very Happy

Turns out someone drunk (yes, really Smile

) thought it was a good idea to shove a lot of stuff against the UPS. Pressing the power off button..

All better now.

Hey m8 it kind of defeats the object of having an uninteruptable power supply, if it's so easy to switch it off, eh? LOL.

As ever, glad you are on hand to sort the bother. Thx.

Heh yeah well the UPS has a 'test' button, but if you keep it pressed it keeps testing.. battery runs out.. testing.. -foom- byebye.

Gotta love uncorruptable power suplies.

Anyway Im quite happy that the server wasn't stolen or anything, I guess it isn't totally likely but when my machine went out and another machine near it was still there I was worried. Since the server in itself is rock stable.

I hate that feeling... when your server isnt responding and after few tests you are getting more and more sure that problem isnt on the route.... wondering what happend... harddrives failure? power supply burned? cpu cooler dead? hackers attack?

Lol Punt you should install webcam in your server room, than you can check your server anytime Smile

Hmm good idea. But. Webcam .. if it runs on the server.. and the server goes down..

Lol true, but there are also network webcams with integrated webserver, it works independent on computer with its own 10/100 Ethernet cable and IP addy. Like this one:
