Reason For High DNS TTL
Jun 10, 2008Is there a reason to set a high TTL for DNS? Like the standard is a few days.I set mine to 10 minutes. So whenever I do a change its propagated within 10 minutes. Is there a reason this would be bad? I realize it means more queries to my server, but 10 minutes is still rather long, not like thats going to totally hammer my server,

Server Going Slow For No Apparent Reason
Jan 22, 2008I have a dual processor, dual core server with 12GB memory.. It uses less than 4% CPU utilization and less than 5% memory utilization, but for some reason It's really slow to load sites...
I know this isn't much information, but would any have any ideas as to what could cause the slow speed?
If is anyone is available to look at it, I'll pay you (obviously).

Is The Bandwidth The Reason Server Prices Are High Or
Sep 12, 2008Like if you try to make your own server, it would cost a few thousand right? Or bought one from IBM or something. If you rent a server, it could cost you like double that I notice or even more in a period of a year.
I was looking at the prices of Xeon 5420 and they are like only 400 or something. Motherboard, ram, hdd's shouldn't amount to too much right?
And companies are charging like 50 bucks a month for a 2 gigs of ram.
Or am I actually looking at this wrong and actually am looking at desktop components? So is bandwidth the cost for these prices? In the long run aren't people being ripped off?
Trace Reason For Spike Load On Shared Server
Jun 19, 2009I have a shared server (root access) using Cpanel / Centos with suphp enabled.
Twice this week the sever's load skyrocketed and was unable to login to trace teh cause, had to reboot instead.
After reboot, I went to whm > CPU/Memory/MySQL Usage and saw nothing in red aside netstat (21% cpu). I'm not sure if this is the cause, but how can I trace the absolute user or script causing this spike?
Slackware Linux Machine Hangs For No Apparent Reason
Jun 27, 2009I have a dedicated machine collocated at some hosting provider and after a while (14 days or so, but timeframe is not constant) it hangs for no apparent reason. It happened 2 times already. Nothing in the logs (it logs everything), nothing at all.
Before the commission the machine was running for a month without any problems.
The first time it happened the tech guy plugged in monitor and keyboard and could not see anything on the display. Before that machine was not loaded with any traffic, nobody should have actually known it is there (except for some DNS traffic). It took some 20 days of uptime.
The second time it happened was yesterday, after some 15 days of uptime.
I suspect hardware malfunction because I have 2 "identical" (OS & progs, not the hardware) systems running without any problems. It is an HP DL380 G5 machine, the problematic one.

Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Fail2ban Blocks Courierimap And Postfix For No Reason
Dec 3, 2014we use CentOS Linux 7.0.1406 (Core) Plesk Version 12.0.18 Update #26 I got reports of several users on my system, and i can confirm this myself, that fail2ban is blocking courier imap and postfix connections when i try to connect to the Plesk Server with Outlook 2013 and theBat and the Apple Mac Mail Client.
I used the correct login information but fail2ban blocked the IPs for no obvious reason:
Code:
2014-12-03 12:46:57,908 fail2ban.actions[920]: WARNING [plesk-postfix] Ban 82.134.94.102
2014-12-03 12:46:58,049 fail2ban.actions[920]: WARNING [plesk-courierimap] Ban 82.134.94.102
I disabled the two jails now and it works perfectly. But why is fail2ban blocking valid requests ? I tried it myself and i did not enter a wrong password or something. MaxRetry is 5 so this should not be a problem. The problem is not affecting all users but just a few. However all of them are using correct credentials so i dont understand why they are being blocked at all.

MySQL Query Doing Odd Things - Removing Negative Sign For No Apparant Reason
Jan 10, 2007I've got a problem with an SQL query that is behaving badly. Its probably really obvious, but I can't see the problem!
I have a table with 3 fields:
Code:
money bigint(20)
income int(12)
userID mediumint(7)
I have a row that has a negative money and a value of 0 for income. When I update the money value to add "0" to it, nothing happens (as expected). When I update the money field to add the income field (which is equal to 0) to it, MySQL flips the sign to make the money field positive.
The following queries show the problem:
Code:
mysql> SELECT money, income from users where userID=327961;
+----------------------+--------+
| money | income |
+----------------------+--------+
| -9223372036854775807 | 0 |
+----------------------+--------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
mysql> UPDATE `users` SET money = money + 0 WHERE userID =327961;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Rows matched: 1 Changed: 0 Warnings: 0
mysql> SELECT money, income from users where userID=327961;
+----------------------+--------+
| money | income |
+----------------------+--------+
| -9223372036854775807 | 0 |
+----------------------+--------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
mysql> UPDATE `users` SET money = money + income WHERE userID =327961;
Query OK, 1 row affected, 1 warning (0.00 sec)
Rows matched: 1 Changed: 1 Warnings: 1
mysql> SELECT money, income from users where userID=327961;
+---------------------+--------+
| money | income |
+---------------------+--------+
| 9223372036854775807 | 0 |
+---------------------+--------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
mysql>
Notice that there is no negative sign after the third select!!
So, we are saying that executing an update where 0 is specified in the query results in the correct action but if you take the 0 from another field it takes the negative sign away...
This for various reasons is a rather urgent problem. This problem has only appeared after upgrading from MySQL 4.0 to MySQl 5.1. This problem does not occur in MySQL 4.1.
Plesk 12.x / Linux :: For Security Reason Backup Is Performed On Behalf Of Subscription System User
Aug 24, 2014I thought this problem was fixed in Plesk 11.5 but I'm still getting the following backup warnings in Plesk 12..."For security reason backup is performed on behalf of subscription system user...."
My phpbb forum creates cache files which have apache ownership and Plesk backup manager gives warnings that it cannot backup the files due to ownership errors.
I have searched for days for a solution without success. If I change the permissions to owner instead of apache the forums don't function correctly.
Is this a Plesk bug that is still evident in Plesk 12?

Should I Upgrade To VPS
Jan 17, 2009I run the website for a small but profitable business. We currently have a shared hosting package with Midphase (who suck horribly) for about $10/month, and I'd like to switch hosts ASAP.
I need to stay under $50/month, but my question is how much do I need to spend and would I benefit from VPS?
Our requirements are relatively modest (see below) but we need rock-solid uptime, fast transfer speeds, and quick/effective support should we need it. I'd also like to keep using cpanel or something equally easy.
Here's are current stats:
traffic: 1000 visits/month or less
disk space: 5GB
bandwidth: 1.5 GB/month
mysql databases: 3
scripting: We also have a couple of wordpress blogs installed and run a small php script daily via cron
MS SQL 8 Upgrade To 10
Mar 25, 2009I try to relocate a database from my MS-sql8 server to a MS-sql 10. I can't get it to work as it should on the new host.
I have used the deattach / atttach method and after that i can login to the db in the new server and make selects. However stored procedures or views does not work. If i try to access them from a vbscript it get an error telling me that the stored procedure does not exicst. If I use the admin tool I can verify that it is there.. Can someone explain what to do? the db is owned by the user and should have all user rights thats needed, but apparently i guess that something is missing.
When To Upgrade OS
Jun 1, 2008I have had a VPS at Futurehosting for over 2 years, that I am very happy with. Currently, the OS is Centos 4.
At what point in time should I upgrade to Centos 5? And are there in pitfalls when upgrading from a system that seems to be ticking along happily. Are there many incompatibility issues?
Also, similar question for Apache 2 and MySQL 5?
How To Upgrade To PHP 6

How To Upgrade To PHP 5
May 6, 2008I have a linux VPS server.My trouble started when I bought a script that required me to install PHP5. Currently my server have 4.3.9.
Being a linux noob, it took me 2 days to install PHP 5 but now the problem is everything is still using PHP 4.3.9. When i do a phpinfo(); it shows php4.3.9.So, can someone please tell me how to tell the system to use PHP 5.
I used the exact same ./configure command as i see in the PHPINFO(); for PHP4.3.9 i.e

PHP Upgrade
Dec 23, 2007Currently my ensim server's PHP version is 4.3.9, and i will want to upgrade it to version 4.4.7. But i have never upgrade PHP before.
Is there any guide which can guide me on how to perform the upgrade? I heard that upgrading through RPM is a faster way?
