Tucson, in fact. The manager at the ISP down there mounted the drive in a
"spare" server running RH9 on VMWare, and gave me ssh access to it. I
reformatted the partitions and used rsync to reinstall. It took many hours, even though it was only about 2.5G of data. I could have filtered it a little better and used compression to speed it up some, but with the low upstream bandwidth from RR it was just slow.
I'm a niave person that has absolutely no knowledge of how to administer a server. That said, what is the possibiliy that the machine you rsync'd from has been compromised?

Zero, it's off-net. Well, it has a connection, but it's firewalled and doesn't offer any public servers.
