They are going to install a new drive, and put the old drive in so we
can pull the data off it.
I will see if I can make some time this weekend to get ensim caught up
so we can restore the sites that have been backup. If we restore them
right away there will be files missing due to rpm's I installed which
might result in php not having all the links it needs to run.

I will see if I can make some time this weekend to get ensim caught up
so we can restore the sites that have been backup. If we restore them
