The Windows 7 OS on my server is on it's last legs of extended security updates so I decided to give it a new installation with Windows 11.
I'm currently backing up all data and will then proceed with the OS and application installation + configuration.
Please expect some downtime the coming days.

It's been quite a while since oldunreal had an overhaul, but we are moving to another server which require some updates and changes. The biggest change is the migration of our old reliable YaBB forum to phpBB. This system expects you to login with your username and old password known from YaBB.
If you experience any problems there is also the usual "password forgotten" function. Don't forget to clear your browser cache!

Re: Downtime because of server reinstall on Windows 11 x64
The reinstall is complete and I made a backup of everything. There could be some additional downtime in case any configuration errors would be found but for now it seems to run fine.
Re: Downtime because of server reinstall on Windows 11 x64
I've had some downtime caused by updating my server to Windows 11 22H2 and a Windows Update issue.
I solved this and am in the process of making a new backup of my installation. Server should be back in an hour.
