? no not that I know of! I generally backup my own sites and when making
changes to my sites, I backup beforehand .. standard procedure really
when making large changes.

We provide a system for users to backup their own site, either locally
or via ftp server to a different machine, but generally backups cost
axxs.org monies as well, in 10 gig increments at $10USD a month. 

That's why I was asking, if you made backups on the server or have them
offsite .. how you did the backups of the files and database? did you
use the system provided or just FTP and a database dump?

I have cc'd the collective on axxs.org, as there's more than just myself
that manage the server, our collective funds it yes, but decision making
is done by a collective outside ours, I am just a member.
