I have started my hosting service at ezhostlive.com. But currently, a few users are experiencing problems accessing accounts made by me. This problem is only affecting people on a certain ISP.
For them, they are not able to access any domain/subdomain on ezhostlive.com
A few examples of sites which do not work for them but work for everyone else NOT on that ISP are teensideout.com, tpc.ezhostlive.com, mobilemasters.ezhostlive.com.
I'm not sure if this is a problem with my DNS settings for my domain or an ISP problem.
Here is the DNS report for an account hosted on ezhostlive.com.

Here is the DNS report for ezhostlive.com. dnsstuff.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?domain=ezhostlive.com
I have several users that can't access my sites, they are all from different areas of the world, most are on PC's with WinXP and one is on a MAC. I've had them do all the normal stuff..clean cookies, cache etc all with no luck.
I have a dual processor server running Red Hat 7.3 i686. I do have KISS firewall running.
If I stop the firewall, they can get in, but I can also bring it back up and then for several hours they can still connect, but at some point, they stop being able to.
I currently have no ip's blocked. See below: BLOCK_LIST=" " TCP_IN="20 21 25 53 80 110 143 443 995 2082:2083 2086:2087 2095:2096 3306 8443 10000 19638 22 26 37 43 873 993" TCP_OUT="21 22 25 37 43 53 80 443 873 2089 55000" UDP_IN="53" UDP_OUT="53" TCP_IN_TRUSTED="22" TRUSTED_IPS="0.0.0.0/0" SERVER_IPS="0.0.0.0/0"
Nothing that I know of changed, it just started about a week ago.
I got this domain hosted on my server where i can't ping or trace it. Every setting seem to be correct, the ip address, name server...etc. and other websites hosted on the server is working fine. i can reach other websites with no problem but not this domain.
how do i trouble shoot such problem? would deleted the website and recreate solve it?
I'm using a shared host that provides good service and support, but there's one major issue I discovered recently:
Other sites hosted on their server are accessible through my domains and subdomain. For example:
Account2 on their server can be accessed through:
[url] [url]
Host says:
"Because everything is Name-based, apache decides what directory is going to be used based upon the name that is provided. However, because the username is valid, it treats it as a vaild URL and redirects it to your site. There is no security issue, as this is just the way apache’s configuration works."
Is it really normal? Does the same happen on all apache servers? I think SE's would treat the other pages as mine, no?
i have 3 sites/users that all need to be able to access each other with complete read/write/exec access
Site1 Site2 and Site3
what's the best way to do this without screwing up all the premissions and access to my currently active sites. I need advice from someone who is a pro at this and not just guessing at what premissions to set. I'm assume i need to create a MasterGrp and invite all 3 sites then set/change permissions on all three sites. Also all new files created would need to have the masterGrp set as the group automatically
I found a great little app called ID Shutdown Manager which bascially lets you do stuff like wake on LAN, Shutdown, Log Off etc.
The App also has a cgi script which you can call from a web server so you get a web interface to the program.
This is exactly my reason for getting the app as I just wanted to host a web page where I could login from the internet and wake on lan my media PC.
Ok so...
The app gives you all the iis or apache setup instructions and tells you to place the cgi script which is actually a .exe into the scripts folder and then enable basic authentication for it.
Done.
So if I navigate to <SERVER>/scripts/sdmancgi.exe its supposed to give me a user / pass prompt and then when login successful I see the app and can wake on lan etc.
ok I have got this to work
on the actual machine where server is running I can access it in IE7 by localhost etc.. and it works
However when I try to access from another PC in my lan by typing <SERVER>/scripts/sdmancgi.exe I get a nice little message saying the content cannot be displayed you may require to insall a program or something to display it.
If I try to access the page from firefox on same remote PC, it works!
I can also access page from outside my LAN, it works on my N95 browser.
Also I have had friends try it from firefox from the Internet and they say it works as well.
Forgot to mention I am running on port 8081 as I already have other servers running on 8080 and 80 (one is my router and the other server installed itself from setup.exe and I dont know what server its using)
I have also tried latest apache server as well as some other free one. Both have the same effect. Ok in firefox, not in IE.
One would think its a problem with the cgi file not compatible with IE7 however, I even tried to go to default page setup in IIS <SERVER>:8081 and I get the same message. So at this point the server hasnt even tried to access CGI or prompt for Basic Authentication.
I tried googling and not much luck. I read something about CSS and when I view source of failed web page from IE7 it mentions something about CSS so dont know if this is it?
I'm having the oddest issue. For some reason, some of the websites on my server load fine, and some take a really long time to load (2 minutes).
Now, the server load is fine, and the size of the sites aren't the issue either. I've restarted Apache and a couple more services, and still the same sites seem to load very slow.
What could be causing this since it's only effecting certain websites?
I have successfully installed dns only to my vps. the problem is when i try to add it to the cluster system on my other vps it asks for a remote access key, so i visit both ip:2087/scripts/setrhash and ip:2086/scripts/setrhash and it shows an unable to connect error in firefox.
this is both using [url]
does anyone know how i can access the remote access key?
I have windows servers that I'll be co-locating very soon. I have purchased a Dell 2161ds-2 and an APC remote boot power strip. Could someone please tell me the best way to secure remote access to these products. Do I put them on public IP's and allow them through the firewall or do I put them behind the firewall and access them after I authenticate through the firewall.
I have a pretty beefy VPS (1 Gb RAM, equal share Intel xeon Quad core processor), but I have no idea how many other VPS's are sharing that processor.
Is there any way to know that? I'm guessing the hosting company (Future Host - very happy with them btw) isn't going to tell me.
Right now my stats are pretty low, but how many individual cPanel accounts (1 site each) before it starts to bog down? I know it depends largely on the traffic, but is 20-30 low-volume sites a lot for a VPS with 1Gb ram?
I have a few personal sites one server and my business sites on another. I was thinking of moving the personal ones to my business VPS (to save money) but I don't want someone to be able to do a NS or IP search on one group and find the others or see that they're related in any way. (I had a weird experience with a business contact contacting me via a personal site that he found by a NS search. That's why they're on another server now.)
Is is possible to add a second NS (another domain) on separate IPs to handle the personal sites, and my current NS handle the biz sites? Or should I just keep them on two different servers?
I thought maybe I could make the personal sites into their own reseller account and do a new NS that way, but if there's an easier way I'd rather do that.
I know a guy who has about 10 domains on the same IP and each of the domains uses its domain name as its own NS. I think the term he used was NS aliasing. I think it was all done by changing the DNS stuff in WHM. I tried to do what he said but it didn't work for me. Also I'm not sure how to handle the registrar part. They want two separate IPs for the NS, but he's using only one.
i currently have 2 webhosting providers but want to consolidate to one acct at one host with a bit better load times...
1. JaguarPc - i have two accts with them
a. i have a shared acct with them currently - i believe its called the gigadeal (something like $10 a month). i have been with them since 2000, pretty decent host not too much downtime. support is "ok" when needed. currently i have 3 smallish websites hosted on this one acct, they dont get a lot of traffic. two of them are using wordpress one is just a static html site. i did a look up and found the server has about 130 sites hosetd on it. so not too bad in regards to overselling. however my big problem is the site takes about 900-1500ms to generate a page. this seems to be pretty often. again the sites dont really draw that much traffic. so thats not the problem here.
b. i also have one of their freedom vps accts with upgraded ram and bandwidth. i only have one site hosted on it. this site used to get about 500K+ unique visitors a month. at its peak we were serving around 1tb bandwidth a month... i know we ran the vps hard but considering we wanted to stay under $50 it worked well. there was of course some downtime due to the massive traffic - [we serve up a popular flash cartoon website].
2. Hostgator - babygator plan this host only serves up one wordpress site - the site isnt very well known yet, but the site is growing each month. the funny thing is that when i looked up this server there was about 830 websites hosted on it - obviously oversold and crowded. support really sucks here imho. however, the page load time is anywhere between 250ms to 500ms a lot faster than JaguarPcs. which is crazy since jag has much less sites on the server... im looking to basically consolidate the websites that are on both shared plans. my original thought was to keep them all on my shared hosting acct at jaguarpc (the one with the 3 sites). obviously i cannot add them to the vps since its pretty active. also the vps is business and the other sites are all personal. and i dont want them to mix so to speak.
i am currently spending about $20 a month between the two shared host plans. im looking for some recommendations as to where to move -- where speed isnt such a big problem, and i can maintain one acct. it would be great if i could host these sites all for around $20 - hopefully without much lag.
was thinking mediatemple - but after reading so many negative posts here about them - im not sure...
I did a search on the forum bu it exploded so I thought I would post the question - sorry if it's been asked.
I would like to know how many sites are commonly hosted on a dedicated server..
Say - 4 gigs of RAM, and a Q9300 (for example).
I know that some companies put 600 - 800 sites on the server and then customers talk about load and etc etc.. So, I just wanted to get a feel for how many sites/server..
I am interested in your suggestions as to what I should do. I need a setup that will allow me to host several sites. They are mostly my own and low traffic. I do not offer hosting to any other folks, if so, i will set the sites up myself. I need mysql, email and virus checker, php, and firewall. I would like unix/linus hosting and am used to cpanel. Would prefer east coast hosting since many sites pertain to local areas there. I was thinkg of a reseller or webmaster package.
In terms of the secure domain, if I had a secure site and wished to access some information on a web page that was from a NON-SECURE domain or at least duplicate the non secure information on to the secure page, does the user need to click acknowledge buttons to go in and out of the secure areas? Can I copy or transfer information [eg goggle search results] onto the secure page without this necessity?
I have a godaddy deluxe Linux hosting plan for the next year. I'm wondering how I can host my two sites on that plan. According to GoDaddy it's possible but how can I do that and have each site separately? It says the only way would be to have it like...Url.com/keyword for other site but I don't want that. I want it to be so you visit one site and it takes you to that exact site.
Now i've been noticing in my logs that i have been getting referals from some other sites, but they appeared to be refering from pages with the same name as mine. I thought nothing of it until sitting on live support one evening i noticed a few visitors were viewing other domains. Which isn't right as my system shows me visitors and which page thay are viewing on my site.
Now they all actually link to my own site whenever you click a link, but seems little odd as it appears they have downloaded my entire site to their server. Almost like mirroring it without my permission or request.
I just want a rough idea; How many sites could safely fit on a server with the following specs?
PENTIUM-4 1.5GHZ 512MB DDR RAM CentOS Linux 5.X
I am thinking in terms of CPU power and Ram here. The sites I have in mind are all low usage (at most 300MB storage and 1GB bandwidth per month) so bandwidth and storage is irrelevant here.
I am having some issues here. I had a reseller account and decided to go to a dedicated box. My question is, what would be the easiest way to transfer all the account over.
I do not have root access on the resellers account so it is making it kind of difficult.
I did some research and found a way I think you can do but please correct me if I am wrong.
Can it be done by going under my dedicated roots access and clicking on the "transfer an account from another server using password"?
Also, Would I have to wait until all files are transfered to set my custom nameservers IP addy.
if there is a general rule of thumb on the amount of web sites can be loaded onto an Apache server which has 4Gb RAM and RAID. Each site will utilize one database, of about 5 Mb max. Preferably CPanel, else is there something else recommended for managing lots of sites?
Can I conceivably get 1000 sites per server or more?
What/where in httpd.conf do i tweak to allow more files to be open?
Just getting started with IIS on Windows XP Pro. One thing I have a question about is why don't I have an option to 'create new website' when I right click on the Web Sites node? Am I only allowed to use Default Web Site? Also, I know it's not a rights issue because I'm logged in as administrator.
I'm looking at IIS on our server which has Windows Server 2003. On that machine I can create multiple web sites by right clicking on the Web Sites node? Is this just not an option with XP Pro?
A customer of mine for about 2 years just left for "Greener" pastures with a big time overselling host. Out of curiosity, I did a lookup search on his new IP using domaintools.
The result revealed that his website now resides on a server that has a little over 10,000 sites hosted on it.
My question goes thus:
What type of server efficiently holds such quantity of websites or could he be in for one hell of a ride?
I have been running 1 site on my VPS for some time, but there is still a lot of things I don't understand 100%. Now I want to add another site to the VPS, but keep the sites as separate as possible, and I have no idea how to accomplish this.
Lets say my first domain is football.com. This means I have these settings:
I got 3 IP's: x.x.x.1, x.x.x.2 and a new one x.x.x.9
My hostname is host.football.com (x.x.x.1) My site is www(dot)football.com (x.x.x.1) Nameserver NS1.football.com (x.x.x.1) Nameserver NS2.football.com (x.x.x.2) Reverse DNS on x.x.x.1 to host.football.com Exim running on x.x.x.1
Lets say my second domain is water.com. It's no problem using WHM and run this site on x.x.x.9, but there is a lot of references to football.com (nameservers, hostname and probably emails).
Is there anyway to keep the sites separate? I'm thinking that I need to request 2 new IP's, run NS1.water.com and NS2.water.com on these. I don't know if I can get a host.water.com with reverse DNS, and I guess emails will still be from x.x.x.1.
