Where is the best place to purchase servers & other hardware in the UK?
Also I know very little in Linux, enough to do certain tasks although I usually have Cpanel loaded to do 90% of tasks.
Is it easy enough to load a server from scratch? also are there any places where you can get pre-setup / configured distro images?
or Can servers be purchased from anywhere already pre-setup / configured? with a linux distro?
What is the best place to reg .tel domain name?
I think of eurodns and sibername.
So which one is better to use?
I want to provide hosting with ads at the top of all pages but I don't want to deal with those "free hosting" scripts. I can set up the accounts manually, as it's a small and focused group I would be providing it to. I understand there is a simple way to place ads at the top of all the web pages on the server. Anyone know about this, can clue me in on how it's done?
I'm running CentOS with cPanel/WHM.

Something we are looking at and wondering as to what would be the best companie/s to have your backups at.
if you could host a US ecommerce site anywhere, where would that be? is it better to host in the midwest to reach both coasts faster? is it cheaper to host in the sticks vs big cities?
we use 1/2 rack and only about 2mb/s bandwidth.... we currently host near NYC, but find that we never go to the datacenter anyway, so why pay for the convenience?

Unfortunately they don't answer abuse reports.
Moreover, if you'll contact them about hosting for ChildPorn,HYIP or similar BLACK content they'll redirects you to sister site blccgold.com for the BLACK hosting services, just ask them.
On Feb 21 I ordered a dedicated server with geekrack.com So when i got my server, i had asked them to have it portioned a specific way, but it was not set up like that So, when i asked them to have it reportioned and reimaged to the way I asked to have it set up, they tried to charge me $30.00. I told them that it was a unfair charge, so they did the good thing and dropped the charge for it. I submited that ticket on Feb 24, and the owner told me that this will be taken care of by the next morning. So, i gave it 24 hours, more time than they said, and it still was not done. I called them and they assured me that they were working on this issue. I gave it another 48 Hours, and still nothing was done. I found out that they were a reseller through burst.net, so i called burst.net to see if they had a ticket for this to be done, and the support tech I talked to told me that a ticket had not even been submitted! So when i spoke with the owner of geekrack.net, she got all grumpy with me and said she was going to yell at burst.net because they were not supposed to release any information. I told her that i would want my money back because their service says that it comes with 24/7 support. Now i was not even getting support, unless you call support saying, "ok we will do this" and not doing nothing. The owner is still refusing to give me a refund, so I have filed a chargeback with paypal, as much as I hate to do that, i beleive it is the only way i will get my money back. So in closing, DO NOT BUY FROM GEEKRACK.NET UNLESS YOU WANT TO GET SCREWED!

Anyone have any more ideas? My software is free, but ad-supported.
where about I can get a decent 1/4 rack for a couple server's I'll be using and selling. I was thinking BlueSquare or Savvis. Blue square would be decent, although I don't see a price scheme on there website.
Poundhost, who are in the BSQ have been the most "attractive" to me. The rack is £260/month although It has a few thing's I would need more of and not sure if they offer it.
1) I will need atleast 50 IP Adress's
2) I want 20,000GB transfer on the rack, so each server get's 2000gb.
I was wondering also these question's:
1) Do I have to go to the datacenter personally, or can I send the server's down with a courier?
2) Is there a way on a rack, to limit each server to a set ammount of bandwith?
I'm asking these question's as I've never had a rack before, nor colocation, It's usually been dedicated. I've been looking to get atleast 50% of them quad core server's and hope they would sell like hotcakes.
I have spend 6 hours in the last 24hrs hand coding 300 lines of Permanent Redirects. I am moving my site from flat file (PHP with includes) to Drupal. I was going to drop it into the .htaccess file but am wondering if there is a more efficient place to put it since this is permanent. Should it go into the httpd file/Virtual host file, will cPanel over-ride that file?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have agreed to rework my boss's storage rental facility website which means I will basically be starting over.
He's always trying to pinch pennies and suggested Google might be a good place to host the site.
From what I can tell, it looks like once you have your domain you pay $10 to host with Google them but it looks like a subdomain setting. For instance, my boss currently has a website called toeholdings.com and he's hosting with google. When I type in the toeholdings.com it redirects to http://partnerpage.google.com/toeholdings.com
If he's trying to get more traffic to this new website, won't that bury him since it appears to be a subdomain? I'm not completely sure what Google is doing here. It looks like beta version.
Does anyone know if their system includes website templates and software to help you build a site?

I am in search of SuperMicro servers as you can read from the title. What I need is to purchase 6-10 SuperMicro servers which will eventually be deployed in Germany. So the question here is whether it would be more suitable, with regards to prices, to purchase the servers from Germany or from some other European country that has better offers?
I would like to buy 5 of the AP7921 APC PDUs. This is the description of this PDU:
AP7921 Horizontal Rack PDU Switched - 1U 16A (8)C13 and 208/230V Output
I have now an offer from PROVANTAGE and from CDW. But even I buy 5 of them, I have to pay the price which they publish on the internet.
Provantage is selling them for 429$ per pice. Can someone recommend a cheaper shop to buy them which is also delivering them to europe?

View 6 Replies View RelatedDoes anybody know of any other hosts that have the multi site function that site 5 has? This allows you to add multiple domains under one account without having to use domain pointers. They are pretty close to loosing me as a customer with the current control panel debacle they have going on. So I was curious to see if any other host out there offers the same thing.
View 10 Replies View RelatedWho can you all recommend for renting out a quarter rack? Up until now, we've simply leased our servers, but we're ready to buy the things and ship 'em off. We have 4 servers we would like to rack - Two dual xeon 2.8's with 2gb ram, and two P4 3.6's with 2gb ram. I'm looking for US racking (but other locations, if you can highly recommend them, are fine). I'm looking for about 2TB Monthly Transfer per server - so about 8TB on a reasonably fast and reliable network.
View 11 Replies View RelatedI often need to access my sites from public places, which are behind firewalls, don't have access to hard disk and any Windows tool (just plain internet access).
Problem: firewall, closed ports: 8082 (cPanel), 2078 (SSL; I don't know, if I'll need this), 2077 and maybe others.
Which hosting features I need? to be able to
1. access cpanel, when port 8082 is closed (I was using cpanelproxy.net until now with success).
2. for uploading files from other websites directly to my website (without prior downloading on a PC hard disc) - I've herad SSH should work, but what exact SSH I need - any experience someone? Any other solution? I was trying WEb Disc feature in cPanel11 but it needs port 2078 or 2077 open...
Whenever an incoming mail is tagged as [SPAM] by SpamAssassin in my mail queue I see it is being redirected from spamassassin@mydomain-site.com to spam@mydomain-site.org
Sence mydomain-site.org is no longer active the [SPAM] mail just sits there in the queue and does not get delivered anywhere..
I am new to this stuff so I have no idea where I should look to change the option.
I am not even sure if it is suppose to this, I just want all SPAM to go to spamassassin@mydomain-site.com
I don't have cpanel or any real server management, so i am not sure where to look and what to edit so the mail stops going to the .org domain.
when I had multiple (at least 5) vhosts set to Apache when it just hanged, this was fixed adding:
Code:
Acceptfilter http none
Acceptfilter https none
To my httpd.conf, but now it's not hanging, it just times out, I get no error, nothing in the error.log file, it just times out.
After doing a refresh, it comes back like nothing happened.
Any one know of a place offering dedicated servers with VT Technology enabled?
Any one know of a place offering dedicated servers with VT Technology enabled in the bios (and cpu that supports VT), so I can create Xen VPS's on it?
Looking to quickly practice with and master my HTML/CSS skills after reading Build Your Own Web Site The Right Way Using HTML & CSS. At the end of the book he mentions site hosting, which I know Google does for free through "Sites".
That said, Sites looks to be designed for the non-web designer, for the average Joe looking to get his own website. So I'm wondering if people who have used it know if it supports an external CSS or if I can upload various image files. I figure that it is probably best that I don't use shortcuts in the initial learning phase.
I don't have a particular site idea in mind, just looking to play around with things and try them out.
i had the above server on my website and the datacenter i'm used to get my boxes from increased their prices because they were running an offer back then
i was wondering where can i find the following specs with the following range:

4GB Ram
2 X 300GB disks
traffic can be anything between 1000 - 2000GB
Linux CentOS
cPanel
my cost was $151/mo, any price on that range or lower would be great

I have a question regarding people who are stealing content off my site (using the same URL of my site). I would like to make a rule (in .htaccess, I imagine) that does the following:
If the graphic is placed on the desired domain, put the correct graphic in place.
If the graphic is placed on another domain (stolen), put a 'substitute' graphic in place that says that the content was stolen.
I know you can do something along these lines (I used to have an .htaccess that prevented people from linking to pages outside of designated domains) but I'm not sure if you can narrow it down much more. However, it would rock if it was possible.
