Do you not have documentation with all this information in it?
yeah there is, but I am not exactly sure where. I am not a one man shop IT deparment so I don't handle everything on a regular basis. I work mostly Windows Servers, AD, Group Policy, etc. So this is a little out of my normal duties. Of course I work other areas, too. When you have 7 people in your IT department, you get specializations of certain areas whether you realize it or not.
It is amazing how you can specialize like that in such a tiny environment, but it is true.
yeah, its more or less just happens. Everyone clings to what they know really well or what they really like to do.

@IRJ a reboot of WHAT do they think will solve it?

Documentation is in a share, not on a wiki or other repository?

How does that work when the share is down/gone?

correct. I have been trying to get sharepoint put in here, but it hasn't happened.

Sharepoint takes money and effort. Just fire up MediaWiki or even DokuWiki. Even for a one man shop it helps a lot. Can't imagine having seven and no basic documentation system!

@IRJ. I quoted the wrong post. If the documentation is on a share it can easily be taken out with an outage.

I tend to use http://www.pbworks.com/ for documentation wikis

Well its mirrored on two different file servers using DFS. There are on separate hosts. Both Servers are backed up using Veeam and we keep 7 days of full backups for each server.
Not 100% safe, but it would take some serious issues to lose access.
