dead. Unfortunately, I was not able to complete the entire transfer
before it went down.

Of the 7300 accounts on Keenspace, 6007 were successfully transferred.
This leaves a bunch of accounts that were not transferred. At this point,
the best solution for these accounts is for us to create empty directory
structures and ask you, the artists, to upload your sites again.

So, if you can not ftp in, it's because your account is not set up yet.
We'll be setting them up shortly and you'll be able to load your site back
up.

Those of you who have hosted domains - we are working to reinstate your
domain redirection. These records were lost with the death of Schlock and
we have to rebuild them from an old backup. It will probably take the
remainder of the day.

It's really unfortunate because I was one minute from sending the lost
information to the new server when the entire internet went down last
night due to a Microsoft virus. The virus has had a massive effect and
crippled the entire internet for most of the night - check out
http://average.matrix.net for some interesting graphs.

Unfortunately, by the time I could get back into the server, the hard disk
had failed completely.

We're at least operational right now, but it will take a few days for
everything to smooth out. Please bear with us.

Thanks,
Nate

I can't even access my FTP site to check on the status of my comic. That just can't be a good sign.

Anyone know which site to ftp into?

I'm assuming it's not schlockadmin.keenspace.com...

would it be siteadmin.keenspace.com or accountname.keenspace.com?

I really wish they could be more specific... I know that they prolly will be.. but oh well.... thank God my indextemplate is on blogger and i have backups of all else I have uploaded...

(hmm... good time to burna cd....)

*comforts Yanagi*

Don't worry, the accounts will be back up as soon as they can. Until then, we can wait aptiently, or start a mirror site.

Besides, think of this as time to draw more comics (not that I need to...)

I'm pretty sure that's the case with lots of accounts. of course this need not apply to keenspot accounts as well as accounts with no comics yet are years old.
