    The win2 server is currently down due to filesystem problems, which began while restarting after windows updates this morning.  We are working on this and will provide additional information here as soon as it is available.  Thanks for your patience.

    Currently it appears the filesystem corruption is too serious for the data on the server itself to continue to be usable.  We are exploring a couple more options just in case, but have also been configuring standby hardware for use as a replacement if necessary.  Yesterday's backups will be restored to this new server hardware in case it is necessary for us to transition to it.  We will provide additional information here as soon as it is available.  Please understand our support representatives do not have any information beyond what is available in this forums thread, and this will continue to be the official source for all updates regarding this matter.

    The restore of yesterday's backup to the new server hardware has completed and we are going to proceed with that option.  Left to complete are the IIS settings, file permissions, and DNS changes.  We're moving on to those items now and will post here with further progress.

    The final configuration mentioned above is complete, and DNS has been changed to point all web sites to the new server.  New visitors should be reaching your sites already, but if you have locally cached DNS with old information it may take up to 24 hours for that local cache to refresh.  Please use your temporary URLs if necessary to check that everything is working properly and let us know via a control panel ticket if you require any additional custom configuration that was not carried over from the old server.  Sites on this server default to ASP.NET 2.0 but if your site requires 1.1 it will be no problem for us to set that version for you.  We are considering this matter to be closed but will update this forums post should there be any remaining server-wide issues to report.  We hope you enjoy the new hardware; it's more than twice as powerful and will be hosting only those customers that were on the original win2.
