Hi all,

By some inner demon that told me to rm -f /* i removed all the directories in the /vz dir (I was a the root user in VZ). I see the VE 101 is still running but all the websites are unknown hosts? I have the backup from a week ago and the vz/private is still untouched and intact. What is the best way to rebuild this as if only the data is 1 week old and all configs are the same. Please advise. Thanks.

So far, I've gotten around to understand where what folders are located where but I'm confused about the fact I've stopped and restarted the VEID and /vz/root/101/var/www/virtual have all reappeared but I'm still cannot ping the server from the outside. I'm missing something else? Did I delete about physical directory when I deleted the VPS root?
