NEMINI - Server Update
« on: February 06, 2010, 03:28:52 PM »
All,

Today I had to upgrade the Server that NEMINI is running on. This was a necessary security that should have been installed in less then 5 minutes. The update disabled a service required for NEMINI to function. Unfortunately it was not documented in the update that this feature would be disabled. I have restored the service and NEMINI is back online.

I apologize for the inconvenience.

Regards,
Rob

It was a bit of a scare, nonetheless. Thanks for all you do to keep this site going.

Basically all that Matrix looking text was NEMINI in an encrypted format. Once the service was restored it then decoded the info and displayed NEMINI correctly.

Normally if it wasn't a crucial security update, I would have posted a note saying the site would be down for a little bit during a off hour of the day, but I wanted to get this installed before we any potential hacker tried to get in.

Yes, there are daily, weekly and monthly backups on the Server and to an off site External Server and then a weekly backup of those files to my local PC.
