The BALUG ancillary sites were still up yesterday morning, but they're DOWN now. I'm presuming power/network has been removed from the "vicki" physical host at the colo site. I expect there will be more about this on the SF-LUG list *real soon now*. http://linuxmafia.com/mailman/listinfo/sf-lug
I do have recent backups - having reasonably anticipated this scenario, I have backups from this as recent as yesterday morning.

Just a bit of background. Some BALUG sites may be impacted soon, but *not* www.balug.org or balug.org itself. See: http://lists.balug.org/pipermail/balug-admin-balug.org/2014-July/002233.html for *which* sites will (and won't) be impacted As to some background and why, have a look at: http://linuxmafia.com/pipermail/sf-lug/2015q3/011330.html And, for the BALUG specific bits I left out of the above:

BALUG: what balug has on the virtual machine atop vicki is certainly highly useful and convenient, and would be relative pain to be without, but we could survive without, at least for a bit, and have in fact relocated it (temporarily) elsewhere in past.
What BALUG does *not* have atop the (VM on the) vicki host: www.balug.org, and balug.org itself aren't on that host, but other sites/subdomains are, e.g. [www.]{archive,wiki}.balug.org, among others.
DNS - only for some subdomains, again not balug.org. itself.
