Im looking at setting up what is essentially a flash game arcade. It will have other purposes, but flash games will be the focus point.
One of the first things I need to decide (along with a website name...) is which hosting company I want to go with. The only company Ive used before were Dreamhost, who had fairly good service but the uptime didnt seem all too great.
Initially there will only be a small amount of traffic, but I want the option to scale my hosting plan easily as I (hopefully) gain more visitors.
A lot of the game files will be lifted from the mochi games feed, but dont want to limit myself to games hosted by mochi, and I still want to be able to cope if I get any big traffic spikes. I also want to host a couple of other smaller sites on the hosting plan, but they shouldnt reach anything near the arcade.
MediaTemples Grid service looks great, but will probably be providing a far greater service than ill need for the first few months. I dont know how long it will take for me to get any decent amount of traffic, the majority of which ill be getting through self sponsorship of games, and I imagine its a fairly slow process getting a decent stream of visitors through that way.
I just dont wanna be paying $100's for serious hosting if I only get a few thousand hits in the first 6 months, which I imagine is likely!
Does anyone have any suggestions for good companies or starter packages? I dont want to pay through the arse, but I would rather pay more for a faster and more reliable service than go for the cheapest option - I want this to be a quality site.
i just want to know which hosting provider is best for flash game site? fast and cheap fees!
View 7 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if anyone could please recommend a good VPS for a flash games website I run. I am currently with Godaddy VPS, but have had too many problems so I am going to cancel my account (once I have found a new host)
What I would like:
Control Panel: Either CPanel or Plesk (not fussy)
Good support - I am relatively new to the VPS world.
RAM: 256 MB (with option to be upgraded if needed)
Bandwidth: 2TB (with option to be upgraded if needed)
Diskspace: 5GB +
Budget: Under $100 US
I was going to buy a dedicated web server with this 3 specs.
I will only host 10 slots CW servers so keep in mind that they are not full all the time. No websites will be hosted on the machine nor TS (have special VPS for it). Can someone tell me how many Counter Strike server I can approximately create on this 3 configurations: ...
i run a browser based game in (php/mysql/javascript) and i currently have noticing with the growing numbers of players that my shared hosting is not going to handle the load, obviously.
i am not sure if this is the right place to ask but are there any hosting companies out there willing to negotiate a deal where they provide hosting for such a thing in return of advertising?
we havent even began to advertise the game and expand it, it will reach thousands of players easely... we would need atleast 2 highend boxes to split up the database from the webserver.
I am looking for a dedicated server to host a game server for Garry's Mod, (which can be VERY cpu intensive) I am having trouble, because my budget is limited to about $75 a month. Colocation is an option, but only if it is cheap (I have someone who will provide a server)
So far I have really considered: .......
This is serious, please do not find the thread as SPAM, waste of time, or useless. I'm doing my research while at it.
Current Provider: ThePlanet
CPU: Dual Core 3.2GHz (seeking 2.8GHz Dual Core or better)
Memory: 1GB (seeking 1GB or more or better; unknown technical specs)
Harddrives: 400GB Harddrive (seeking 400GB or more or better)
Cost: ~$320/month (seeking at this price or cheaper)
Bandwidth: 1500GB @ 100Mbps (seeking more than 1500GB, but @ 100Mbps)
So help me find providers other than ThePlanet (good hosting, but not good enough to help advance the webhosting business through over-selling). I am seeking for specs at, around, or close to the ones I gave above (monthly fee also). Reliability is a very important factor!
I am going to be buying a dedicated server from kimsufi Most likely the 2XL Package.
My streamers will be using my server aswell, On weekends we will be running 3-4 streams at a time, weekdays 1-2 at a time.
Spreading all the streams out, at anyone time we will have 300 viewers.
I need to know your advice on this before i go spending money.
How do i convert my dedi into a flash media server, i need red5 or something, thats all i know so far. My streamers wil be streaming to server with FME, And i also want it coded so that my streams can only be embedded on my site.
Basically i dont have a clue where to start, how long would it take me to set up etc....
In addition, what kind of server do i need, windows / linux / traffic / burstable / standard etc..
is this a good deal for a sever for $69 a month
320GB STORAGE
3,000GB MONTHLY TRAFFIC
2.6Ghz AMD PHENOM II X3
2GB RAM MEMORY
how do i prevent the hosting company from significantly raising my monthly cost?

I rented out a server from leaseweb for 6 months (prepaying) before doing any real researching.. the price was great but the support apparently sucks. Now that I found this out, and my server hasn't been setup yet, I want a full refund. I've contacted them via email, but yet to recieve a response; who should I contact or what should I do.
View 12 Replies View RelatedThis weird issue has poped up only this weekend , when csf blocks all ips and even ssh, email and all services are not accesible, even though server is working, but firewall puts a block on everyone, and appears offline to others, any ideas why csf and iptables are not responding and acting in this behavior, i asked jonesolutions.com last time it happened i got no reason/response which could be the culprit.
Could it be the kernel update/upgrade that was done, to optimize load which broke csf and its working?
as this is 2nd incident over last 2 days , and i had thought my management had fixed it. Upset here over the unwanted for no reason downtimes!
Here is the output for this command after i restart csf again, and thats like average too i get over the entire day.

Connections to server dont seem to be high enough to pooch the firewall.
With increased traffic lately I'm trying to plan my next move so I was hoping for some kind recommendation from you guys.
My current setup is 1 VPS from knownhost (managed) where i have my wordpress sites and 1 VDS at FDC (unmannged) for static content like images and zip files but i would like to have everything in one place because it would work out cheaper.
So the question is would i be risking too much if I moved my whole site to a unmanaged dedicated sever without having any expreice other than very basic stuff like intalling afp/ddos deflate?
Right now it seems like their isn't anything to it except upgrading the OS or mysql and things like that in the future...
to put together a file server. This server will only accept SFTP connections and send/receive data. Also, planning to use RAID 10 with a hardware controller. Just looking to get a feel for the CPU and RAM. While the server load will not be much, scalability is a factor when considering hardware.
View 7 Replies View RelatedWe want to build a file server in our office - either Windows or Linux (doesn't make a difference to us).
We have a lot of satellite offices, and want to have certain computers have access to specific files/folders on the fileserver.
The catch is this... we would like some of our satellite computers to "sync" with the files/folders on the fileserver.
For example, a developer who is constantly working with a particular client, will always want his/her files to sync up with what is on the server.
The developer will want to work with a local copy of the files, and once finished, will upload them to the file server.
A few days go by, and there is a possibility the fileserver has additional information for that client. The developer would then want to download the changed files from the fileserver.
The benefit of working with local files, is that it is quicker to make changes. We can always leave the desktop on overnight to sync between the fileserver and the desktop.
Any suggestions what to look into here?
All of our desktops are on Windows, so we would need a windows application that has this functionality.
Rsync seems to be the closest thing I've found so far.

I have my web server hacked several times and I am beating my head against the wall trying to find the problem(s).
Way back when my sites have been defaced and CHMODing my *.html files to 744 seemed to have done the trick
Now someone has put a phishing site somehow, which by the way I'm not able to remove still, I can't help but to think that I may have more CHMODing to do, I have recursevly set my site to 755, shoud this do the trick? I know I need to chmod .htaccess and alike files to 644, but what about...imagesCGI/PHP?cssetc?
What other steps can I take to secure this thing?

I have been experimenting with Fedora 8 as a desktop (64 bit). It is quite good. The only problem I have encountered is using the latest flash. For some reason it actually turns off the computer randomly. I reverted to an older version and it doesn't happen. I am running kde, it behaves the same with gnome or xfce so I know it's not the desktop I am using. It could be nspluginwrapper however, I uninstalled that and tried 32 bit Firefox and it also crashes.
I probably should be in the Fedora forum but I was wondering if anyone else had seen this. I am running AMD X2 5000, 4gb ram, NV 7300.
are those all capable of working when i get the server or do i need to install something to make the site capable with PHP and etc with the server?...
