X10 Maybe Reorganizing Sales and Forums Sites

[BLH]

I just tried to log onto the X10 forums where I am a Community Organizer and was redirected to a X10/X10Pro web site.
With no links {for now I hope} to the forums or wiki.
I had no advanced notice of this. Other than for a short time all X10 links {sales, forums, wiki} went to Go Daddy holding the domain name.

Hi also noticed it was gone, I'm was kind of concerned that it might not come back.  After googling for about 20 minutes I found the old IP address and put it into my /etc/hosts file (I'm on linux)
Now I can access the site, I'm backing it up but I can't get the attachments, because I forgot my login and the systems email for password reset is not working.

On windows you should be able to edit your hosts file and put the above in.  the hosts file is locate at \system32\drivers\etc\hosts. Once that is done you should be able to access the forum.
 
I am hoping that  someone else can backup it up with the attachements.
Anyway If it goes away I will need to find somebody willing to host the backup.

I found more ip address, I'm grabbing the manuals now.  If I have time I will also get the knowledge base.

I now have a full read only copy of the old x10 forum on my server.
The link BLH posted will have the forum link.
Also I have setup sections on my forum to help.

I had thought with being an administrator on the x10 forums that I might find a way to get it up and running again. :unsure: Not!
Hopefully in time it will be up and running again.

X10 went into Chapter 7, and has been liquidated by the Bankruptcy Court. Here is the whole, sad, unfortunate story (it didn't need to happen): http://johnharding.com/2013/10/04/x10-liquidated-by-usbankruptcy-court/
