We got the backup back up.
I hope you’ll excuse the short spell of downtime earlier this evening. It was absolutely necessary, I assure you. I had put off replacing the toasted backup drive in this server for far too long and I figured that the seething masses could survive without a half hour or so of splorp and company. The verdict? I simply plopped in one of the 4.5GB Seagate drives that I traded Sean a box of Timbits® for, and everything is right in the world of nightly incremental backups. For my next trick, I plan to add a wonderfully convoluted set of IP filters to my router so I can back this silly thing up to the fancy-schmancy network attached storage drive hanging in the rack directly above the server.
