Assuming 1and1 ever gets their act together and my server re-appears on the net once more, I’ll be sure to let everyone know…
The really frustrating part is that I use 1and1’s provided FTP backup to keep about a month’s worth of my blog’s backups on a physically separate machine, but that FTP account is only available from within their network (to prevent people from using it as mass storage for hosting), so I can’t even get to those backups to manually restore them elsewhere.
To top it off, it looks like Media Temple is having problems once more. I’ve temporarily moved the DNS for incoherentbabble.com back to my (gs) account, but it’s running as slow as molases. It took quite literally 10 minutes to delete the prior Wordpress directory left over on my account and perform a fresh SVN checkout of Wordpress 2.3.1. Just spectacular, guys…
And here I thought I’d earned some karma points lately. First I’m in the final 3 job applicants (out of about 500 I’m told) and I lose it out to another guy, and now this series of unfortunate events… I’m beginning to think someone up there doesn’t like me very much.
