Helping recovering files from VDS

Post by Snugzz »

Appearently the VDS didn't like me removing 3 roles it no longer needed ( IIS, AD CP, and another useless one. )

I have followed the guide ( viewtopic.php?f=46&t=10584#p56242 ) and I get to step 4 where I need to do something with resolv.conf and I get here: https://gyazo.com/6bf91a6a85520619dbf882f412dd7ee0
and I can't go any further. Does anyone have any tips to help me or anything?

You need to type those in as separate lines, just as they are separate lines in the KB article.

So each line needs to be seperate
So line 1 needs to be

Code: Select all

ifconfig eth0 66.151.244.239 netmask 255.255.255.0
then

Code: Select all

route add default gw 66.151.244.254
then

Code: Select all

eco "nameserver 8.8.8.8" > /etc/resolv.conf
??

Edge. I can't seem to find the tip jar do you know where it is?
YOU SIR A ****ING LIFE SAVER!
"Tech" support couldn't even tell me that after 30 minutes to an hour with them and I didn't even move anywhere except get more and more frustrated!
Once again thanks so much!

I'm glad that it worked :).

It's strange that the support staff couldn't see that. I will take a closer look at that.
