How To Preserve The Same Name Servers
Feb 7, 2007I aquired a new server with a different IP. I would like to preserve the same name servers as the one I already have ex. ns1.thesamenameserver.com I think that if I go to godaddy and just create the same name server with the new Ip will conflict with the one that I already have.
Eventually I will not be using the old server as I'm doing a migration of the domains to the new one but is important to me to preserve the same nameservers . Anyone has done this succesfully?
CPanel Or Plesk To Preserve Resources
Aug 17, 2007I have a VPS that gives me
Disk Space 30 GB
Bandwidth 900 GB
Guaranteed RAM 512 MB
IPs 5
My Problem is that I can't run webstats or my RAM maxes out causing all kinds of problems. Normally my privvmpages is around 200,000 out of an allocation of 500,000 but with webstats on that goes through the roof.
What can I do? Do I have to get more RAM? I can buy more ram but it is kind of pricey.
Would switching to Plesk solve my problem? I heard it uses less resources. But I have never used it before.

RackEdge Ownership
Jan 11, 2009Does anyone here know who owns Rackedge NL? Are they a member of this forum? I am having a real bad problem, that certainly defy's logic and reason and i can’t seem to get any replies from either member McRox or the Support team.
Rather than posting wildly around the net about them and this issue, I would prefer to first ensure this isn’t just a big misunderstanding, so any details anyone can offer on this.
There is only 3 people i have been in contact with in this company

Sftp File Ownership
May 19, 2009I have it setup and have a user created that can upload files to my website.
The problem that I am running in to is that the files that this user uploads are owned by him not the cpanel website user. Thus when I try to view the page in my browser I get a server 500 error since the site is set to only serve up pages that are owned by the cpanel website user.
When using FTP in the same way we did not have this problem as the file that was uploaded would automatically be owned by the cpanel website user.

Another thing about directadmin, i select all folders and files at once trying to reset ownership but i always get an error and have to reset ownership one by one wasting time....
Change Ownership To Nobody : Apache

I have been battling this for a while. A user will setup a CMS like joomla, e107, etc and every time the CMS changes files either with user interaction on the website or the admin changing things in their cms admin web page, apache takes ownership of the files.
I have tried installing suPHP, FastCGI, and most recently suexec. I am not having any luck with this. I really don't know what I am doing with these recent additions but meanly going on suggestions. Does anyone know of a walk through to fix this permission problem? Anyone with some good advise? Surely not everyone is having to write a script to chown each user's dir and run a cronjob every 5 minutes.
Direct Admin : Root Ownership
May 15, 2007I'm Running (just) Direct Admin On a Centos 4.3
Due to a typo at the comand line as Root, ive manages to change the owner ship of unknown mounts of files.
The command that was processed (Before it was complete)
chown -R reseller:reseller /
I managed to stop the process ctr+c
and these were the last files to see fly past.
The last one in the list is where it stopped at.
Code:
chown: changing ownership of `/proc/11566/task/11566': Operation not permitted
chown: changing ownership of `/proc/11566/task/11566/fd/0': No such device or address

At the moment the server is still running and it seems only to be log in issues with Direct admin. All user / reseller / Admin accounts can no longer log in.

No images or nothing
Changing Ownership Of Multiple Accounts In CPanel Using SSH
Nov 7, 2009I have to mass change the ownership of accounts and I find "Change Owner of Multiple Accounts" tedious.
I found a bash script but I'm not sure if this works
Quote:
#!/bin/bash
IFS="$"
cd /var/cpanel/users
if [ $# = 2 ]; then
replace "OWNER=${1}" "OWNER=${2}" -- /var/cpanel/users/*
else
echo "USAGE: ./${0} <old reseller login> <new reseller login>"
fi
If that works, how can I tweak it so that the change in ownership of accounts will be based in the hosting package and not in the old reseller account?
Whostmgrd :: Stranger IP With Root Ownership And Command
Jun 28, 2008When I have checked the 'Current CPU Usage' in root WHM there was a stranger IP with root ownership and command: whostmgrd - serving xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Also there was my IP with this ownership and command, like every time I am viewing the WHM.
I have blocked this IP with apf immediately, and the root password is changed.
Does it mean someone was in root WHM?
I have a dedicated server with cpanel on centos 4.6 / chkrootkit and rkhunter / all of server's softwares are up to date / compilers disabled for users / php open base dir is enabled and my users do not have SSH access.
R1Soft CDP Backups

Best Place To Get R1Soft
Dec 10, 2008where is the place to get backups utilizing R1Soft.
Something we are looking at and wondering as to what would be the best companie/s to have your backups at.
R1soft Backup
Aug 2, 2008R1Soft is a backup “solution” aimed at companies that want to backup only the changes that have been made since the last time a backup was created. Its a good idea, but it went horribly wrong. I am writing about it today because it was such a poor experience working with them and we had so many server problems and REPEATED DATA LOSS that I felt compelled to warn other hosting companies and customers about this extremely poor product.
R1soft caused enormous I/O load that literally killed our servers off and on multiple occasions simply would not restore our data and caused 100% data loss on the servers we had “backed up”.
MAJOR TECHNICAL DEFICIENCIES AND OPERATIONAL ISSUES WITH R1SOFT -
1) Buagent (Their software that records what has changed) is a HUGE i/o pig. It constantly blocks on I/O when there are changes causing every other drive or array in our system to lag while it catches up. R1soft told me it “works great” and to send them over details and they would “Look into it”.
2) Buserver (Their software that writes what has changed) is INCREDIBLY slow in every way that it is virtually unusable when you have a lot of data to back up with tens of thousands block changes every day per server. Clearly it hasn’t been tested well under sustained and real heavy load - at least in my opinion. There are multiple kernel and userspace methods to speed this up, but again it falls flat on its face when trying to keep up with our load.
3) Restores are buggy and VERY unreliable. We have attempted more than 20 restores (whole partitions) and had more than 30% be a complete failure, meaning TOTAL data loss. Doing user level restores were the same story - incomplete backups, unreliable and SLOW restores.
4) R1soft support is lackluster to say the least. When I complained they said, “You only opened 17 tickets in the last 60 days.” 17 tickets? Often when we had issues doing a restore or other problems we would call and get no one to answer the phone. Its comforting to know that when you can’t do a restore for 500 clients that we can possibly talk to someone on Monday who will blow us off and tell us that the newest version of the software MIGHT fix our issue. In the meantime they apologized for losing all our data over and over again. Wonderful.
5) The software is based on filesystem block changes. The problem is that the kernel and ext3 and reiser are changing all the time. As we made updates it constantly broke R1soft. When they would finally fix the problem it usually required us to reseed the entire backup again losing everything that we had previously backed up and putting enormous load on the server again while it started over from scratch
In all my years of hosting I have never had such a bad experience with a “partner” company as R1soft.
Just thought I would let other potential customers and hosting companies know my experience.
How To Give File Ownership Privileges To External IP Address
Aug 4, 2008I have a software program on my home PC that writes to files on my remote VPS every few minutes.
The only way I can accomplish this is to CHMOD the files to 777 and give the whole world write priveledges.
Is there a way I can give my external (home) IP address write priveledges to certain files on my VPS without CHMODing them as 777?
I run the latest version of cPanel and WHM on my VPS.
Is R1Soft CDP Backup Really Good
Jun 7, 2009I am currently moving my accounts to providers that use R1Soft as a backup solution. This is a security measure, but I am planning to use it as a marketing point too.
An after purchasing a backup account from Steadfast that includes support for R1Soft (and learning to use it), I am planning to resell their product.
Those ideas sound good, but is R1Soft software really as good as it looks like? Some years ago i had a problem with a very known (and trustable) VPS provider. After having a hard disk crash, they told that their Virtuozzo based backups weren't reliable, so I lost some data.
R1Soft In A Virtualized Environment
Mar 1, 2009Anyone have any experience using R1Soft in a virtualized environment as the VPS provider rather than the VPS user?
I'm wanting to offer some solid bare metal backup. It is generally difficult to do sound backup procedures in dom0, since can sometimes suffer file corruption when backing up running domUs from outside of them, and I use LVM drives rather than disk images.
I've always heard backing up from inside domU is best.
R1Soft is an obvious option but the pricing seems quite high and I'm wondering what kind of CPU/disk usage impact it could have. Say you just have 16 virtual servers per box (2 per core)... that is 16 instances running, and ~$2400 just in licenses alone.
Anyone have any experience doing backups/CDP in a virtualized environment? You using R1Soft or something else? Inside domU or out?
I wish R1Soft offered monthly pricing, since then the upfront investment per customer isn't nearly as much.

Best Backup Solution - R1Soft
Oct 5, 2008what backup solution you all use. We plan on starting to use a backup solution but was wondering what the best one is. R1Soft seems to be pretty popular and I was wondering where all of you guys get your licenses from them. Also if anyone knows how much does a license for 1 backup server and 2 agent servers cost. I see it is like $500.00 at R1Soft directly but is that the only way to get it. Also is R1Soft very good? Please rate it 1 -10 in your reply.

R1soft Remote Backup Provider
Dec 8, 2008I have recently had to set up all my backups again (add me to the ranks of disappointed bqinternet customers). I choose to go with Handy Networks - and I am SO very happy I did. The got all my servers set up quickly and correctly, but the most impressive thing was the communication - it is one of the best support experiences I have had in this industry. Not only on the initial set up, but even the questions i had afterward - they went above and beyond in their answers.
I know companies get ripped all the time on here for bad support - just wanted to give a little praise!
