I am toying with trying Cortex on Windows Home Server - (as the only other application). Anyone already done this ?
Unfortunately my previous server for Cortex suffered a complete hard disk failure so I am going to start over from fresh on a new one. In a way this was appropriate anyway as I learned a lot from my first foray and now have an opportunity to approach it better and redo the layouts. In truly 'stupid' mode I found I had kept my backup of the configuration on the same physical hard disk - albeit a different partition , and so I lost it - so just a reminder to you all to backup your configuration carefully.
It crossed my mind that Idratek could perhaps offer a 'value add' via the Cortex updater whereby they backed up your configuration daily on their servers for you. Not sure how people would feel about this but I for one would have appreciated it.
