There are programs that will notify you of an issue and page or call you, sort of like a line cut notice to an alarm company.
I will ask the guys who do the server work what they are using and let you know.
You could have a email given to a few of the regulars for such a situation. The Coal Forum Minutemen!

I actually have something I could modify to do it, I set up a special page on my server that records the IP for any request. I gave the URL to a friend of mine so he could set it up as his home page on his laptop. If the laptop gets stolen and someone opens the browser bingo! I got the IP. :lol: There's a few commercial application on the market that are much more advanced.

Problem is with any notification it's actually getting the message which is the issue because I don't have cell phone.
