Common Managed Colocation

Nov 2, 2009

I am writing an article about managed colocation (what it is, what are the benefits, how is it different from other hosting options, etc.).

What are some common questions you get from your customers regarding your managed colocation or managed services?

Do they see the value right away? Why are the hesitant? Is it clear to them which aspect of their server is under the control of the hosting company and which is still their responsibility?

Managed Colocation Vs Managed Server

Jul 16, 2008

When a colo vendor can consider themselves as a managed colocation provider? What make them different than *normal* colo service?

If you need a managed colo, why not go with managed server? With managed server, your vendor will take care about the server health, including software and hardware too

(I am mentioning to fully managed server vendors like Rackspace, don't tell me cheap managed servers)

Best Managed Colocation

Aug 18, 2009

I am shopping around for managed colocation right now. My biggest thing is support and network reliability. Right now I have a server that's colocated but unmanaged. As my sites are becoming larger, they are becoming more prone to DDOS attacks and other server-related problems and, as of right now, I have nobody to help me when my server dies.

So, support and DDOS protection is very important. In sum, my criteria are:
24/7 support that will help me resolve all server related issues
Monitoring 24/7
DDOS protection

Good connectivity to: USA, Canada, UK, and (as a curveball) Australia (AU is least important though)
Only 1-2mbps uplink

Based on this, what managed colocation services would match me and my criteria?

How Common Is Port 8080

Aug 6, 2007

I want to have a static server for my website which runs on the same machine as the dynamic server. I have read on the internet that port 8080 is a good alternative port to use.

Is common enough that it will work in all cases like port 80? And that it won't be blocked by firewalls and so on since it's not a service port (port < 1024).

Yum Error: Gclib-common Dependency

Sep 9, 2007

After install yum on my centOS 4.4 VPS, I ran yum update and got this error:

Error: Missing Dependency: glibc-common = 2.3.4-2.25 is needed by package glibc-dummy-centos-4

When I tried to install glibc-common, I got this error:

error: Failed dependencies:
glibc-common = 2.3.4-2.25 is needed by (installed) glibc-2.3.4-2.25.i686
glibc-common = 2.3.4-2.25 is needed by (installed) glibc-dummy-centos-4-2.3.4-2.25.swsoft.i386

When trying to install these other things, I get more dependency errors. I noticed that glibc-dummy-centos-4-2.3.4-2.25.swsoft.i386 was mentioned. I'm not sure what this is, but it's by SwSoft? Is this something I have to contact my provider about? Thanks.

MySQL's Error Code 28: What Are It's Common Causes And Other Pertinent

Nov 22, 2008

This is part 1 of a personal tragic-comic narrative starring myself, a simple, unassuming end-user of value-based web hosting services, and the supreme villain of this pathetic tale, the Iago to my Othello, would be a verminous, sub-human parasite collective disguised as a professional web-hosting company in the vicinity of Columbus, Ohio.

Speaking of Shakespeare, it seems to this humble WHT supplicant that the comedy of errors authored by the entities in question, a craven crew of possum-bellied, pigeon-brained menagerie of cubicle-dwelling subhuman troglodytes masquerading as ethical business-persons and capable hosting providers, is so egregious that if a scale of measurement is ever devised for web-hosting incompetence, it should be named after this company, in recognition of their utter incompetence and arbitrary imbecilic buffoonery disguised as reasonable technical support and customer service.

Apparently this company thinks it's more important to use their scale-encrusted rat-tails to cover up their own mistakes instead of giving reasonable responses to customer questions regarding apparent server issues.

Which brings me to my initial question:

MySQL's docs say that Error Code 28 results from lack of disk space or write permissions.

What are the common causes of this? Who has the power to control it from happening, the web host or the end user?( in this arrangement, the host is running an overloaded server and controls all of the configurations and aspects of the server while the user is using secure software with moderate usage of bandwidth and database queries).

I have additional questions in regards to a more general issue regarding failure to write/open to directories as well, but I'll wait for some responses first.

Excellent forum, by the way.

Apache :: Basic Auth User Not Logged In Common Log File

Jul 18, 2013

I use Basic Auth to limit access to a web site. This seems to work ok. I noticed though in the logs that the logged in user is not logged:

80.....188 - - [16/Jul/2013:09:56:29 +0200] "GET ..." 200 1844 "...." " ...

I would expect the second - to be replaced by the logged in user. The doc says, the user is logged if the document is protected. I do protect the whole directory using directory match. Without log in I fail to retrieve the document in question.

Managed Or Self Managed Servers

Mar 7, 2007

I've always had hosting where everything is pretty much already setup. I am now considering getting my own dedicated server. I see most good packages are Self Managed Servers.

I'm not a system admin and never had any experience managing and setting up my own server. Is this a lot of work? Is this something that is also pretty easily learned or does this really take a lot of knowledge?

Managed VPS Under $40

May 12, 2009

We're starting a new video sharing project much like YouTube, so there will be lots of video conversation taking place, as well as high volume traffic on a website driven primarily by PHP and MySQL. It is very important that the company be able to host adult content.

We are looking for a managed VPS under $40. This is not a hard cap. We've been looking at EarthVPS but would like to check out more companies before making a decision. The price point that EarthVPS offers is relatively in the right spot. We are looking for comparable resources as well.

EarthVPS offers 50GB of space, 1000GB bandwidth for $35 a month. Keeping in mind cPanel is $12 more per month.

What is EarthVPS' reputation? Are there any other companies out there that offer a managed VPS service at around the same price point with roughly the same resources?

Managed Vps

Nov 14, 2007

One of my sites needs a vps of its own... the hosts ive tried so far have not been very satisfying (uptime wise) but i will not list them because they had a 30day refund policy and that alone is enough to say thanks and a friendly goodbye.

What im looking for in a vps... (atleast)
-10gb filespace
-200gb bandwidth
-Managed
-Cpanel
-Unlimited domains/sqls (would be nice to add on some domains)
-Reasonable setup time
-Money back garuntee (not a must but id lean more towards hosts that offer)
-Reasonable uptime (i know 100% isnt possible.. least 80%?)
-Located near southern california is a plus

I think i nailed pretty much everything im looking for unless i forgot something.
Thanks for the recommends in advance!

My budgets about $50 by the way.. (can pay more depending on the host)

Managed DNS

Jun 19, 2007

I'm having a little trouble with setting up DNS. I'm not sure if it's setup right, and it's acting slow the *first time* you connect (but normal until you reconnect again, wait 3 minutes).

3 domains at 000domains.com. 5 DNS each domain at dnsmadeeasy.com. Reseller plan with dedicated IP at polurnet.com.

- At dnsmadeeasy I enter the domain daemn.com and IP.
- At 000domains I register n1-ns5.daemn.com with my 5 DNS IPs.
- At 000domains I update daemn.com's DNS to n1-n5.daemn.com
- At 000domains I add A record with daemn.com's IP.
- At WHM I edit daemn.com's DNS to ns1-ns5.daemn.com
- At WHM I change daemn.com's A records ns1-ns5 to the 5 DNS IPs.

I repeated the same for the other 2 domains. Looks like they gave me the same DNS IP's for all 3 domains though.

On top of all that, I added subdomains in cPanel (which added A records for them) and they still haven't resolved (5ish hours). Didn't take this long before. I wonder if I need to add A records at 000domains too, or I did this all wrong.

Managed Or Unmanaged VPS

May 24, 2009

I have a java-based instant-messaging server application, which I need to host on a VPS.

This server application comes with its own Java Virtual Machine.

I do not need any other software than that, no web server, no database, no PHP, no multiple domains or whatever, because that stuff is hosted on another server
So I assume, I will just need an unmanaged VPS. Am I right or is there more to it?

Do I have to install and manage firewall and security on unmanaged VPS, or is that done by the provider?

What about monitoring? Any other issues I need to take into consideration?

Managed DNS Recommendations

Aug 7, 2009

we have several sites, that have www & email hosted in separate locations. we currently have our server redirect mail out. but if the server is slow, down, or other issues, it may not re-route the MX records out.

Would a managed DNS service help? i assume this means i could route services before they hit the server.
