It would help if one could register 

Very odd. I tried loggin in last time it didn't work. Eh, in now.

I also get general errors

Forgot to mention one other thing though, love that color scheme    :toes up:  :toes up:

fine, I'll close Finder 




     

I like. 

I wrote about it on the website, but I feel I should mention it here too.  Because of Kirtana's new wireless router that I set up, the IP address for the fileserver changed.  I went through the website and changed the links to reflect the new IP address, and I changed my domain redirection for AtevenCS.com (which is used in a lot of the links I've posted) so that other links will still work.

However, those of you with FTP access will need to know the new IP address in order to access the server.  I don't want to just blurt it out, so I'm sending an email to those of you who I can think of that have access and use it (if you had access and don't get an email, PM me).

Have you even tried it?

The web server is seperate from the file server.  We're hosted on the main clanmacaddict web server.

What about now?  I was connecting to it just fine.

News on the site, but I'll just give a quick sum-up here:  the file server is coming back, and with a vengeance, but it'll be a week or so.  I'm preparing to do an annual format-reinstall of Windoze (this is why I like having so much open hdd space!)

18 months is still better than what I'm running on (P4 2.66GHz from 2003).  But yeah, after hearing about Sony's rootkit catastrophy, I decided to run a rootkit sniffer, and found tons of crap hiding away on my compy.  That's why I've been scarce on Halo; I just don't want to risk spreading anything.

So right now I'm going through stuff, backing it up onto the 300GB drive, scrubbing the registry before I make a backup of it, and then wiping the system drive and rebuilding.  I created a slipstreamed SP2 disk, but it'll still need updates since that service pack was released.  Then I threw in a bunch of stuff I normally use, like Firefox, so I wouldn't have to either redownload them or dig for other disks I've got them stored on.

With all that I've already done to help make this easier, I'm optimistic that this whole process shouldn't take more than a few days.  As I reinstall things like Office, games, etc, the fileserver will already be up and chugging, so you guys should only notice that I'm not on Halo for a bit longer.

Computer's back up, working on reinstalling stuff as we speak.
