  The disk has crashed again. I have no backup for 
  the crucial data in /home/aras. The most
  important there are /home/aras/acis/userdata and 
  /home/aras/acis/backup

  If the machine is kept running, that data may
  go away. If you guys don't have a local backup,
  we would be in a severe fix. 

  If someone can make it there as soon as possible,
  take a backup of /home/aras, and put in a new
  disk with a basic debian o/s in it, I can then
  work on restoring service. The disk that we
  have there now is a gonner.
