OK Rado, thank you for that. I am the only admin on the server, there
is a firewall so things are not too exposed. I'll try ssh this morning,
along with posting the output of the commands you listed.
If the worst comes to the worst, is it possible to save the users,
groups and folders and restore those to a fresh eBox installation? We
have just started the school term and reinstalling the whole lot is a
frightening thought!

I've been away for a few days and during that time the server has run
well and the network is up. However, when I tried to access the browser
interface for eBox I got a warning that a nasty bug had occurred and
that the /var/log/ebox.log (I think that was it - I am away from the
network again at the moment) could not be written to, permission
denied. Now I cannot access the browser interface at all, I have
rebooted the server but nothing seems to do it. The network is
accessible and running fine, but from my point of view this is a
disaster - I am not a command line expert!
This is one of the main issues of ebox, IMHO - if it breaks, it breaks
big time (and you have to be more than average sysadmin to fix it,
unless you reinstall everything).
Do you have access to the box via ssh? Are you the only admin on that
box? Is the box exposed to the Internet without a firewall?
For a starter, can you send back the output of these commands:
df -h
last
cat /var/log/ebox.log
dmesg
cat /var/log/fsck/checkfs
It is hard to fix things if you have no server output at all... :)
