Cron Issues On VPS Server
I have a VPS Setup which is running Cpanel, everything works fine apart from some of my clients Cron Jobs.
Each user is trying to get cron to run a script to update a page. if they run the script from a browser then it works fine and the page is updated, however if they let cron run the script, it does not run and they get an error email from the server. E.g.
*************************
Subject: Cron <xxx@xxx> php -f /home/xxx/public_html/1min.php
From: "Cron Daemon" <xxx@xxx.xxx.co.uk>
Date: Fri, January 18, 2008 12:55 am
To: xxx@xxx.co.uk
Priority: Normal
Options: View Full Header | View Printable Version | Download this as a file
No input file specified.
*********************
I have check the server and everything seems to be fine, I have cron jobs running as part of WHMCS which all work fine, I just cant find the error.

Linux Permission Issues Affecting Lighttpd, Cron And Qmail
If I create an html file via SSH (nano) in the /www/ directory of a website, save it and then chown it to the correct user, why will I get a 403 (Permission Denied) error unless I chmod the file to 755? I think I've changed something system-wide that I'm not sure how to revert, and it seems to be impacting other services (such as mail, cron and stats generation). I thought it was Linux Environment Security, and then I reverted the changes it made, but this made no effect on the problems I'm having.

Memory Issues On JaguarPC VPS. Suggestions? Recommend A Virtual Private Server (VPS)
I recently moved my site from a shared hosting plan at $5 a month to a VPS at JaguarPC. I took advantage of one of the offers here at Web Host Talk. My setup has cPanel with 320MB of RAM. I have another site running the same software (Joomla, vBulletin) with cPanel and only 256MB of RAM at KnownHost. I've had zero problems with Knownhost and the site is snappy. The site hosted at JaguarPC continues to have all kinds of problems. Running a number of sites, I don't always get to check in on my sites unless I know of a problem. I'm sorry I didn't pay more attention to this site, because it was having all types of PHP memory issues. When I first contacted JaguarPC, they said they boosted the memory in Apache. The issues remained, so I contacted them again. They recommended more RAM. Now, I checked on my KnownHost site and that's running on 256MB. I figured that maybe JaguarPC didn't allocate enough RAM when they set up the VPS. They confirmed 320MB. Not wanting to change hosts, I asked them to poke around a bit more, considering what I know about KnownHost and my success there. I received this response: have checked and you are running named service on your server. named caches dns data and this can also consume a lot of memory, sometimes over a 100 MB may be consumed by this service. In addition to cPanel and named which are most memory consuming applications running on your server, there are other applications like apache web server and the php scripts running on the server also consume some memory. It is highly recommended that you upgrade the RAM on your VPS significantly to avoid such problems which may cause disruption of service. You can find a list of RAM and other VPS addons in the following link. Instead of helping me resolve the problem, they simply keep asking me to get more RAM. For SEO purposes, I like to keep my sites on different hosts. Can anyone recommend a VPS? I was certainly unaware that "named service" had such an impact on my VPS. If that's the case, is there any harm in not having this? SEO or otherwise?

Connectivity Issues To VPS Server From Certain Locations
We have a VPS with Media Temple. Their data center is somewhere on the westcoast. From time to time we have severe issues to connect from our Brooklyn/NY locations. We experienced the connectivity issue from 2 physical locations. Doing a tracert gave us a good result. There are usually 4-8 users using our shop admin for order processing or the shopping cart for manual order entry. While they are having problems connecting from there, I can connect just fine from Calgary/AB, Canada. Most of the time no issues at all. how to debug that?

And over the past few days ive had disk limited exceeded on my vps when i have 50GB and which ive only used 6% of that now this caused cpanel and multiple errors with my sites and my clients websites which resulted in me doing re-load on my vps thinking it was the problem but well after a whole weekend of restoring everything i was still getting these errors from cpanel etc withoyut even restoring everyones files completely which i had to do manualy as i couldnt do a backup run on the server. i done some further investigation i came across this: root@nlnet [~]# Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted /dev/simfs 200000 197131 2869 99% / Which tells me they have completely over sold there server from worldstream and it appears the server they on have with Worldstream.nl had 500Gb HDD which is ALOT of overselling for a 512 mininum ram vps with 50gb space. I have contacted them as this is crippling my company which we are new and this is the only solution as to a vps that is in the netherlands. we are really not pleased as we have just paid alot fo bills to get our company running now we are being faced with this issue and we cannot afford to get our own dedicated server this month.

Wordpress Issues After Migrating To Knownhost VPS
Knownhost provide free migration until unless cpanel matches and I was using dreamhost who are using custom panel and from here the whole fiasco started. I had to do the migration myself and everything went fine.. but few problem which started here as I was not aware of the permission. I installed Cpanel from the WHM and done the migration.. I'm facing few little problem and I will appreciate if someone can give me a helping hand here with this problems and tips. 1. Wordpress pLugin Installtion : I can't install plugin directly from my wordpress dashbaord. It's asking for host information (FTP), but I would like to be like what i had it in previous host. I know issue is with the permission but I don't know how to resolve it. If you can give your 2 cents here and keep in mind I'm a newbie with server stuff so proper steps will be much appreciated, or I have to open a support ticket to Knownhost, what should I ask them to do. This is what I can see here "To perform the requested action, connection information is required." 2. WHM optimization : From my understanding any system when installed is a raw system, either be a computer, server or wordpress and we have to optimize it. So What do I need to do to optimize the performance of my server (WHM) and hardening the security. 3. Cpanel Security and Optimization : I have create a cpanel and Same questions for cpanel, anything I need to do to optimize the cpanel in terms of security and performance. I will appreciate any information here as it will be helpful for me and I'm sure for other newbies like me.

Server Change Issues
I have a reseller package with HostGator.com , and I had one of my personal sites on it. The site was growing too fast, and taking up too much of my reseller package, so i bought another normal hosting package from hostgator. They did a complete site copy onto the new server (same account name for site, just on a different one of their servers) Old: (URL address blocked: See forum rules)~midnight/ New: (URL address blocked: See forum rules)~midnight/ I did this swap over 7 days ago. It was successful, everything worked, did my DNS swap and i thought that was it. Now for the confusing part. when i type in my domain ((URL address blocked: See forum rules)) it shows up perfect, as it should, as it does with 75% of my members BUT For the other 25%, its showing up as the old server. I have been onto my domain supplier, and they said all is fine at their end, they are seeing the site as they should, have been onto hostgator, and it works for them, they cant understand what it can be. Not only this, but people who can get on, might still get the old servers at times. People who cant get on, can get on from different computers in different houses (hope that makes sense) I was about to change the site back to my reseller package and scrap the new hosting, but said i would seek advice from other webmasters first. Has anybody ever experienced this before? How is it solved? What can i do?

1and1 Issues, So Now Looking For A New Dedicated Server
I'm currently running a dedicated managed business server with 1and1 (UK). As most of you know their level of service leaves a lot to be desired, and from personal experience this has been dropping even more in the past year. Emails to their support staff sometimes take days before I get a reply. And I've been experiencing server downtime that has sometimes lasted for hours before the server has finally been rebooted, and that from a managed dedicated server plan! Today for example the server went offline at about 11:00 GMT and didn't go back online until 16:00 GMT, so it was down for 5 hours! Even though I had tried to contact the support staff a number of times during this period. This kind of downtime happens at least once per month and I also get a couple of other shorter periods of downtime most months. I run a site that has been growing in size steadily over the past couple of years, but I don't think it is overloading the server, so I don't think it is anything I've done that keeps crashing and taking the server offline. The site is currently getting about:8,000 unique visitors per day. 600,000 page views per month. 60GB of bandwidth per month (this is increasing by about 5GB per month). 20GB HD space (but content is constantly expanding so will eventually need at least 50GB) But even earlier last year when the site's traffic was still only 20GB a month with 3500 unique visitors per day the server was just as unstable! I've checked the server logs and the server load is averaging at 1.02 with a peak of 2.62, CPU usage is averaging 24% with a peak of 56% and all other system resources are quite low. Are those figures acceptable? I personally thing they look fine and can't see what could be crashing the server. Could my site's database access activity be crashing the server? The site uses between 26-80 sql queries per page due to the site being a database directory of over 5000 page entries, with each containing a mix of ajax and web2 technologies to deliver its content. Is that creating a high load on the DB server? Not sure as the server, as mentioned above, only has an average CPU load of 1.02. Anyway. I'm less than happy with the level of support and service from 1and1 for a managed dedicated server. Even if the server does crash, it should be rebooted quite quickly as it is supposed to be managed. So I'm now actively looking for a new dedicated server. What would you all recommend based on the current load and traffic my site currently requires? Budget wise I current spend about £60 ($120) per month so don't really want to spend any more than that if possible.

Website Pop Up Issues On Server
I am having pop-ups issues on my website. Previously I tried to solve it out but wasn't able to because due to 64 bit of Windows 2003 most of the softwares were having compatibility issues. But now when I have switched the server to 32-bit, on the new server, the website is still having the pop-ups. I have tried a couple of softwares to detect them, but in vain. I am getting out of ideas now. Can someone help or suggest me something in this regard?

Server Issues / Execution Time
During the last couple of weeks my main server has started acting weird. Sometimes(often) when accessing my site, I get a page saying that server or location could not be found. Reload and "bam" page loads again. Average load on the server is 0.50 When executing scripts (I.E uploading files using web2ftp or cp file manager) server shuts the connection after a few seconds and say page cannot be found. I set the execution time in php to 60sec, so this is not the issue. When I ping the server, I do not get any packet losses.

They repeatedly deny that claiming that i have issues with my connection string when i also see the issue from SQL Server Management Studio. I am looking for a replacement now. I am not able to afford Verio or Hostway, please suggest me a plan which is good with 200 MB data transfer per month and 100 MB sql server space. That should have a reliable service and good up time. My budget is $10 per month.

Windows Server 2003 IIS Issues
I have a windows server 2003 server with IIS 6 installed on it. My site runs fine, then all of a sudden becomes VERY slow. I asked server hosts to take a look at it, and they noticed an IP that is has attempted to connect on port 80 432 times in a few seconds, causing the site to slow down. Is there any software i can use to try and combat this spam/abuse? I have a trend micro anti-virus and firewall installed on the server. I have blocked that IP, but there is nothing stopping that from changing. Also, are there any free/cheap server monitoring tools for the server that i can monitor the server remotely with? The server has SNMP installed and configured according to my server hosts... watever that is.

Site Running In Multiple Server Issues
Current Status My main website is a dating/magazine/community site. I use server ONE for as my main server for: nameserver mail apache - php mysql This server uses FreeBSD with CPanel/WHM Server ONE load averages are about 1-1.5 A year ago I got another server (server TWO) to host a php chat script, and unload the main server. This server hasn't a domain attached to it and I'm using it through its IP. This server runs: apache - php mysql And it also uses FreeBSD but with Webmin. The load averages for Server TWO are about 0.20. Recently I transfered all the images of Server ONE to server TWO, with a good result for loads on server ONE. What I want to doSome users of the site complain that they can't see any images of the site due to IP based images src. So I want to set up a redirection so images.example.com to redirect transparently to the other server. When I tried to setup a subdomain redirection through Cpanel, I just got again the IP of the other server. Who can this be done? If I must setup DNS stuff in server TWO, in order to achive it, can I use it also as spare nameservers for the domains hosted on Server ONE? What else is easy to transfer to server TWO in order to unload server ONE?

How To Cron On Windows Server?
I truly love the 'cron' feature on Linux servers. This way I can schedule php scripts to do repetitive tasks on my website, but I plan to develop a asp.net website. Is this kind of scheduling scripts possible on Windows servers? Else how do I perform repetitive automatic tasks? It would be a shared hosting.

Dedicated Server - How To Setup CRON
I'm trying to help out a friend with a dedicated server setup however we both don't know too much about it. We've setup apache, perl, sql all the standard stuff but cannot for the life of us setup a CRON job for a particular script. The dedicated server control panel is: WHM Accelerated. Our current websites have been setup on the server under the same user account (master). There doesn't seem to be the usual "CPANEL" options which you usually get with shared hosting however.

Determine What Cron Jobs Are Killing Server And When
We're running on Linux/Apache/MySQL/RoR and have a number of cron jobs that run throughout the day on our server. We've been noticing lately that at certain times of the day the site becomes really slow. When I'm online with my engineers I can mention this to them and they can check and see and say "Oh yeah, it's job XYZ that's spiking the server load." That's great but much of the time when I notice the sluggishness my developers are offline (we're in different time zones). I'm wondering if there's a fairly easy way to track this when they're not online so we can say "Yup, last night at 10 PM your time when you noticed that it was job ABC." There has to be something that allows you to do this right?

Email Issues When Email Is On Another Server
I have a client who has his own hosting account, and wants to leave his e-mail on his own hosting account, but his website on my hosting account. On his own hosting he has created a sub domain called shop, and pointed its A record to the IP address of my server. On my server I've setup his domain name, and created the sub domain shop. That all works fine. The problem I have is that the site under the shop domain needs to send an e-mail to sales@hisdomain.com. Now my server thinks the main domain is setup on my server, so it sends the e-mail to itself. I'm justing wondering how I can get the server to point the mails back to his hosting? A previous host I've used said they had to add the domain as a remote domain on the server, then they had to make some changes to /etc/localdomains because I was getting errors trying to send mails to the address.

Lunarpages Email Issues
Last week I made several postings here asking about a good reliable hosting company offering a Windows product and several places suggested Lunarpages. So I set up a 1-year account with them. I don't even have my web pages up and I've already run into problems! Apparently the Windows version of their webmail (Plesk/Horde) interface is very bare-bones. For example it does not offer any kind of folders or filters, and no IMAP support. They have no ETA for any fixes on this. I travel a lot and often use internet cafe's for email so a full-featured web mail interface is kinda basic. ( I didn't ask about this ahead of time because in 2006 I didn't think there was any such thing as an email product without folders or filters - it would have been like asking if an apartment had running water) More ominously, they told me that their whole Windows email package sometimes stops working!! (but not in a way they can notice if the customer doesn't tell them) They say it doesn't happen very often, and has only happened on certain physical servers and the company providing their sw is preparing a new build, but they also have no ETA. The worst part about it is that you have no immediate way to know if it's down. People sending you mail will get bounce messages but unless they have your phone number how will they tell you? And you will get errors if you try to use webmail or set up a new account, but if you are just using a conventional POP3 client (i.e., Eudora) it might be days before you know you're down, according to the Lunarpages tech. So what does it take? Why is it so F#$@! hard to find a reliable, trouble-free web host, where you can just set up a long term contract, pay your money and everything just works?! Lunarpages has an excellent reputation, so if they are this Mickey Mouse, so what must the others be like? (thanks for letting me rant)

DNS Issues With CPanel
Has anyone else experienced strange DNS issues recently? Upon cPanel update, some DNS zones rebuild themselves which causes various other problems. For example, last night in the cPanel update, my server's main domain's DNS zone rebuilt resulting in the hostname and ns1 & ns2 going down causing problems for the rest of them. I've also received error emails about named going down after cPanel updates. I have asked around and apparently it's not only me? Are cPanel releasing some bugs of DNS in their cPanel updates... should someone let them know?

DDoS And Legal Issues
I see lot of threads about DoSes and from what I understand its pretty much up to client to pay expensive prices for a DoS firewall, or just get a few days of downtime and hope the DoS ends when server is put back online. However, one thing I've been wondering is do providers (unmanaged) normally assist with the legal issues behind this? Like is it up to them to sue the ones DoSing given it's their network, or is it still up to the customer to do that?

Hostv Issues After Signup
I would like to share with guys the experience I had with Hostv over past 7 days. After signing up I got some email configuration problem on server side, but I haven't changed a thing on that section. I couldn't send or receive emails for like two days, contacted the support, didn't a reply till 12 hours later (ok maybe that's because it was Saturday ). After about 10 emails going forward and back they then found out the problem was caused by some misconfiguration on mail server, which I haven't NOT touched after I signup. Come on, I thought I purchased a VPS server not a $2.99 shared!. So basically I wasted two days on this email problem! After that I thought ok I can a have break now... but no there's more. The server goes down AT LEAST once a day, and when it's down, everything is DOWN, including the WHM and Virtuozzo. To sum it all up, I have not had a peaceful day since I joined them! Oh and by the way, my server is still down as I'm writing this! and has been so in about 1 hour now!

Are There Issues With Mod_Security And Forums
I am running Apache 2.2 on CentOS. I really want to install mod_security to lock things down. But I saw where there were some issues with mod_security and forums. I plan on having a forum live on my site shortly. I found this bit of info: If you install mod security on the server, some forums will not work properly as this will compare each pattern which is posted against the rule set and will block it if found matching. Is anyone using mod_security with a forum currently?

Mailserver Issues: Has My IP Been Blocked
Streamyx is the largest ISP in Malaysia and a few weeks ago, any emails sent out via my dedicated server to @streamyx.com would bounce. Servstra & PSM are convinced that Streamyx has blocked my IP but Streamyx is saying that they haven't. I've tried getting Servstra to change the SMTP server to a different unused IP but that didn't resolve the error either. If I send emails to the same streamyx.com account via yahoo or gmail, they get through immediately. I really need to resolve this.. nearly everybody has a streamyx account here and it's impossible to work like this. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! ================ [root@ice db]# tail -f /var/log/exim_mainlog| grep judah7@streamyx.com 2008-03-31 10:13:25 1Jg9WX-0000Vg-42 == judah7@streamyx.com R=lookuphost T=remote_smtp defer (0): SMTP error from remote mail server after initial connection: host mx.tm.net.my [202.188.0.213]: 452 try later ================ [root@ice ~]# telnet mx.tm.net.my 25 Trying 202.188.0.213...

Anyone Else Having Issues With Crucial Paradigm
Has anyone else had a real issue with Crucial Paradim and some of their business practices? We started a VPS there for a project that was time sensitive, we had issues from the start with not only the control panel but support as well. You send a support issue in, it get's picked up by someone and then pitched off to someone else to resolve. Needless to say the original issue that should have been resolved by the first tech ended up getting touched by 4 techs and took several hours to fix. We ended up going with Linode.com which has worked from signup without any issues at all and yet Crucial Paradim refuses to cancel the account or offer a refund above 30% of the month we paid for, even though all of the issues were due to their CP software and support, and we used their service for 4hrs at the most....out of a whole month!

Under Consumption Issues W/ A PSU
Would it be bad to run only 24 hard drives on a 900 watt redundant PSU setup provided in a super micro machine? No motherboard, just the hard drives and backplane? I know that if PSU's aren't loaded enough, they can malfunction or shutdown, as well as encounter efficiency issues. Is there a general rule of thumb for this sort of thing? Should I see if supermicro can give me a lower rated PSU or something? I searched around on the net a bit but couldn't find anything solid for this particular question..

ASSP Install Issues.
I followed the tutorial provided here for installing ASSP but am running into a small problem with exim failing on my vps. I am using ConfigServers csf and lfd and didn't know if there was more modifications needed for ASSP. my exim panic log shows this: 2007-03-12 00:19:39 socket bind() to port 125 for address 127.0.0.1 failed: Address already in use: daemon abandoned I think that it may have to be my exim.conf or assp.cfg, but both read the same. Exim.conf local_interfaces = 127.0.0.1.125 Assp.cfg smtpDestination:=127.0.0.1:125

Mail Forward / Hostlookup Issues
I have several domains on my server. ABC.com DEF.com XYZ.com These 3 domains have email hosted my google and everything works as expected there. However, when I try and send email from a php form to an address at XYZ.com, my server tries to send it locally, instead of sending it to google's MX address. If I try and send mail from this php form to either ABC.com or DEF.com, it works great and sends it to google's MX servers. I ran a email trace from within cpanel and it returned this: asdf@XYZ.com virtual_aliases via /etc/valiases/XYZ.com | | | -------- XYZ@myserver.com localuser to local delivery asdf@ABC.com lookuphost via ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.com The contents of my valiases files? root@server [/etc]# cat /etc/valiases/XYZ.com *: XYZ root@server [/etc]# cat /etc/valiases/ABC.com *: ABC Here's some debug from the exim_mainlog file 2008-05-14 12:34:06 <= nobody@MYSERVER.com U=nobody P=local S=660 2008-05-14 12:34:08 => asdf@ABC.com R=lookuphost T=remote_smtp H=ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.com [209.85.147.27] 2008-05-14 12:34:08 Completed 2008-05-14 12:45:53 <= nobody@MYSERVER.com U=nobody P=local S=2611 2008-05-14 12:45:54 => XYZ <asdf@XYZ.com> R=localuser T=local_delivery 2008-05-14 12:45:54 Completed Any ideas?

Copyright And Other Issues With Google -> Looking For Advise
Some time ago I've found in Google Book Search one of my books, 'published' there by my former Russian publisher, who has lost any rights to my novel 6 years ago. Furthermore, according to our agreement, the publisher was entitled to publish the novel in a book form only (which makes any other form of publication illegal). I've contacted the Google Book Search Team with a request to change a copyright holder's ...

Mod_rewrite And Archiving Directories -- SE Issues
I have many directories from years ago on a fileserver. Many of them are indexed on Google. I have five webservers reading from one fileserver for the data. I'd like to keep copies of the most recent data on the webservers and through mod_rewrite tell it to use local copies instead of reading through the fileserver. I would like to move most of my older directories into an "archived" directory. If I move most of my older directories into an archived directory, the Google listings will then 404. I could put a 404 doc up redirecting to the index page, but Google will drop the link, which I would like to avoid. I could add a new RewriteCond / RewriteRule (below) for each new directory. But, it would need to be added in the httpd.conf file for each of the webservers and restarted. With the number of new directories I add, this would be infeasible. Does anyone know of a way to accomplish what I am trying to do? I do not need the older directories in the "archived" directory to be accessible or rewritten, I just don't want to lose the search engine listings from them. And, I want to reduce the strain on the fileserver for these files. I also don't know of a way to say: rewrite everything locally unless it is in the /dir1/archived directory and if there is a 404, the directory probably existed at some point, redirect that to the index and give a 200 status code. Does anyone have any suggestions? I tried mod_cache but it doesn't seem all that speedy. RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/dir1/dir2 RewriteRule ^/dir1/dir2/(.*)$ /path/to/dir1-localcache/dir2/$1

SolarVPS Issues Public Thoughts
I regret to bring this to a public forum but having seen that solarvps has a presence here I am hoping that a resolve to this issue can be found, and any public opinions are welcomed. Having been a customer with solarvps since 2006 without any cause for concerns it does not make me happy with some recent issues I have had with them. So I have had a vps server hosted with them since 2006. Sometime in February when attempting to login to my VPS I got an error, I left it as this happens sometimes, it happened for 4 days in a row so I thought this is a little strange logged in to my control panel, to see no VPS server was listed under the account. There was no invoice generated either. Ok this is strange but I just assumed it had been terminated, no invoice came through and that particular server was a backup server so I sought hosting elsewhere. 4 months pass I get an email from solarvps stating my account is overdue with charges applied. I contact them back straight away asking what they are billing me for I have explained the situation time and again to them, I have asked the questions why the server disappeared from my account, why I wasn’t able to access the vps remotely and why no invoices got generated at the time to which I have had no response, I have asked more than 5 times now. The only response I keep getting form them is threats if I do not pay to hand over to a collection agency and the possibility of legal action. To which I have replied each time that I will contest any such action and seek legal advice myself. Granted I should probably have contacted them at the time but really they are at fault more than I am for not asking them what has happened, I truly believe I am not in the wrong here but nobody within solarvps is prepared is looking at the facts of what has happened here. Well anyway I hope bringing this to a public forum will bring a resolve and maybe some answers. I am getting no response from anybody within solarvps and would be happy to take this away from the public if they are willing. I am not unfair nor does it make sense that a customer for so long would just decide not to pay you one month and kick up a fuss over such a small amount of money but the fact that I am not in the wrong with this matter, I am not prepared to pay them no matter how much bullying tactics they wish to adopt in trying to make me.

DNS Issues - Domain Not Resolving Sometimes
Does anyone have experience with DNS issues? I'm hosting a few sites with LiquidWeb (freeteams.net and laxteams.net are the big ones), who's been a terrific host, but I occasionally have some issues trying to access my sites. It occurs only occasionally (maybe 10-20 people have let me know in the past year), but with users in different locations and on different ISPs. It seems to also only occur for a couple of hours. When they try to type in a specific domain, it won't show up in their browser (browser-independent, I've tried it in Chrome, IE, and Firefox.) However, when they try the IP address directly, the site works. I have about 4 sites on one server, all with their own IP address, and the issue doesn't affect all the domains at the same time. LiquidWeb says it's an ISP issue (they've checked all the settings on the server, and everything looks ok.) I tend to agree with them, because when I or my users switch from using their ISP's DNS server to OpenDNS' server, it works. However, it's happened at a number of different ISPs around the U.S., including universities, which makes me think there's something I can do to solve the problem. Also, I don't want users to have to change their computer settings. Also, while I can't access the domain in the browser, I am able to ping the domain, and it will respond.

SATA Drive Issues On DG35EC
I'm having the same problem that a lot of you also faced - my SATA disk is being detected as an IDE disk. (/dev/hda) I've had the datacenter set AHCI mode in BIOS, however that didn't seem to fix the issue. I keep hearing about kernel upgrades fixing this problem, would it really help? Or is there any other way to go about fixing this without having to reload the OS? I'm running CentOS 5.4 x64 on the 2.6.18-164.el5 kernel.
