We had a major failure which destroyed both our primary web server and latest backups. I have the DNN DBs. Can I recreate the sites?

I have had some success recreating 4 sites that were lost by looking at the version table in each db, installing the correct version of DNN and configuring the connection strings, installing the skin (listed in portalsettings table) on a different site and copying the correct skin and container directories to the new site. The structure of the site is there (e.g. www.nemdstem.org), but the content is missing and I cannot login. I assume I have an authentication issue, but I'm not sure how to approach this problem.

I was able to recover the machinekeys for the sites that I was trying to rebuild. Adding the machinekey to the web.config did not fix the problem I have with the content not being displayed. However I am now able to login where I can see that there are errors in each htmltext module. This is the error I am seeing:

  Error: Welcome to Mantua Democrats! is currently unavailable.

This almost looks like the wrong version of the module is trying to be loaded, but I have the correct dnn version installed as far as I can tell. Does anyone have any thoughts on this error?
