Is the server doing anything at all? My first guess is filesystem corruption 
with errors that require human intervention (it happened to me a couple of 
times). 

Ask someone to look at the console to see if that's what happened.

What I always do in your situation (remote box) is to configure a serial 
console so I can see what's going on when problems arise
