Server Termination

This morning I got an email from my server's hosting company saying that they are ceasing to trade. My server will be unplugged on 1st March. Its now 27th February. What a lot of notice.

Now I'm scrambling to backup my data (with the help of the JANET backbone), order a new server and fully set it up with DirectAdmin and do DNS propagation, as well as copying things like Mysql databases and IMAP email accounts across.
Wish me luck
(and if you ever see servers from a Nicholas cloutier, run a mile)
