Got my backup in place

After two crashes this time am making sure I have my backup in place before I add anything to the website. I settled on Ping 2.01 to make backup images for the server no more install from scratch. The funny thing is that i have been advising people on the importance of this yet i never got to do it myself. But after starting over for the second time am making sure i have restore disks for all the machines in the house both windows and linux.
