I'm very interested in a dedicated server with the following specification:
Dual Core Xeon
4GB DDR2 RAM
2TB + 73GB SAS 15,000
UPLINK PORT: 1000Mbps (gbit), 5TB of data traffic (bandwidth)
I don't want it in .nl or .de (so please no leaseweb, grafix, ecatel, netdirekt, vectoral, etc)
I'm specifically looking for a server in the European area since I am from South Africa.
The reason being they will be more or less in the same timezone as I am and they also generally provide the fastest ping times (220ms to a server in Europe as opposed to 350ms to a server in USA).
I will be using the server as our own hosting space and hopefully be able to rent a monthly license for Parallels Plesk so that I may be able to resell hosting space - this is the primary reason for the dedicated server. I would like to know whether getting at least a quad core for this setup is essential or if I can get away with a dual core (in the case of hosting say 50 - 100 different websites).
So far I have been looking at keyweb.de which has a dual-core setup at 79euro installation fee and 49euro monthly fee. Their quad-core setup is 99euro installation and 59euro monthly. One drawback is it seems that they don't install Ubuntu linux (which is the OS i'm after). Another one is that their website isn't very intuitive - I cannot see whether it is possible to bundle Plesk with my order. I do however like the fact that they generally allow torrents.
actually I have my dedicated server with ThePlanet since many years ago, where I'm really happy, but due to recent spanish laws, I need to move everything to a european dedicated server as ThePlanet isn't certificated at the "Safe Harbor directive".
============
This is what I actually have:
2x1024 MB DDR 266 ECC
1 Dell 1600SC Dual Xeon MB DAT54AMB8C2
2 Intel P4 Xeon 2.8 GHz 533FSB (4x2.8)
2500Gb Bandwidth
Linux+Cpanel
============
What I'm looking for, is a serius company (no reseller company) with similar dedicated servers configurations. What I'm looking for is also a 1Gbps uplink connection. Bandwith is not so important, as my monthly bandwidth is only about 300Gb.
I've seen very fast (connection) servers in Netherland but don't know how serious they are.
OVH (apparently) looks also fine, but I've read very bad reviews about them.
After being hit by a DDoS (managed to evade it for a while, but it's still painful due to downtimes) I'm looking for a DDoS-protected server somewhere in Europe. I don't care about the exact location, it just has to be outside Canada and the USA. I do not require a lot of traffic - using just about 1.5GBs per day, diskspace also is not an issue, so the main things is the DDoS protection, connection availability and the general level of service.
Searching through this forum, I've found the only possible option for a DDoS-protected being DataPipe (contacted and awaiting for a quote already). Have I missed something else? Are there any alternative good hosters with reliable networks and protection in the EU?
Does anyone have any recommendations for a company that could provide a reasonably priced, reliable, unmanaged server for me somewhere in western europe?
I'll need a reasonable amount of bandwidth, so this is a consideration.
I'm based in the UK, but willing to look at other, more digitally enlightened countries nearby (Norway, Finland, France, Germany, etc) to get a better price since servers are very expensive here.
The server be hosting a big AJAX application so latency is a consideration also.
Any Dedicated Servers within $50 to $80 price range? and where IRC is allowed. US or EU, whichever.

Budget:
up to $ 200 a month. But if such amount is not sufficient for the entry requirements, are ready to revise the budget.
Need a really high-quality channel of communication and operational support, etc. Perhaps for these tasks, you recommend other requirements to a server and placing the territory? Check your real council.
Also look in the direction of affordable rental server and utilization of services: Akamai Technologies. If someone has experience working with Akamai, I ask, share their views. Should I use it for such a project?
A lot of information has been revised to servers in Germany, UK and USA. But the single answer, yet to be found.
does anyone know any good hosting companies in europe. Preferably London or around England and has had previous experience or any knowledge about them, as well as pricing.

I am setting up a web server (2-3 websites, colo) but am wondering if setting up a mail server (IMAP/SMTP/Webmail for 4-5 mailboxes) alongside is a good practice?
Furthermore to my question, I only need SSL cert for email server and not for websites. Can this be done? Yes or no would be enough for now.
I heard that HostGator is good. But they don't offer Win Server, except the Dedicated.
I need one that can run faster in China.
About the budget. It can be more or less the same as the rate that I currently paid to IX Webhosting:
10.95/month Annual
12.95/moth Semi-anual

View 7 Replies View RelatedCurrently configuring my VPS, have been for a while now, and am relooking at the security I'll need on it. The VPS will be running something similar to a CMS/Forum site and won't be offering webhosting. Alot of the security measures around here are webhosting orientated. What security procedures does everyone suggest for my situation?
I've got APF, BFD and restricted root SSH access. Is there anything else?
This is my list (from my head) of things to install or do on a webhosting server to enhance security (not in any particualr order):
- rkhunter.
- chkrootkit.
- secure /tmp and similars.
- install mod_security.
- install mod_deflate.
- change ssh port.
- disable root login.
- install and tweak apf.
- install bfd.
- setup logwatch.
- add know "bad" IPs to apd list.
- enforce long and secure passwords.
- syctl.conf Hardening
- Mod_LimitIPConn
- System Integrity Monitor
- System Priority
- Process Resource Monitor
- Port Scan Attack Detection
- In php.ini, disable:
exec,system,passthru,readfile,shell_exec,escapeshellarg,escapeshellcmd,proc_close,proc_open,ini_alter,dl,popen
- Prevent Apache and bind to show their versions.

Here are my requirements:
-1GHZ CPU

What is the difference between Dedicated Virtual vs Regular Dedicated Server?
Also what are the pros and cons of going with Virtual?
to move from shared windows hosting to Dedicated windows hosting. This will be our first dedicated server and experience with dealing it too.
Someone suggested me Rackspace. But they were charging premium rates 440 USD for entry level windows server.
I am currently using a shared hosting but due to increasing traffic and server load my existing host is not able to provide reliable services and I am planning to upgrade my hosting service.
While I was searching for Dedicated Servers, I learnt about Virtual Dedicated Servers but I am not very sure about their reliability? Are Virtual Dedicated Servers useful? My website current serves over 2500-3000 visitors a day resulting in 30,000 pageviews and I am expecting the traffic to grow by atleast 2 folds in the next few months as I start some PPC campaigns and Email Marketing for my website. Can a Virtual Dedicated Server cater such needs assuming my website to be more of less dynamic website written in php?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI am planning to host my personal website which will be a bunch of static pages for the time being with the possibility of moving to PHP/Pearl CMS later.
For this, I think that a basic hosting plan of about .5-1GB space and 5-10GB bandwidth would be well enough.
Can you please suggest me a host which would cost around 2-3$/month and has a moderately good service? I came across companies like Umbrahosting and HostPC which are cheap. Do you have anything to say about them?
Moreover, some hosts give combo offers of webspace+domain registration. Is it wise to register the domain through the host or to register it separately through godaddy etc?
Will there be any web hosting security flaws if I buy hosting straight from the package?
Sorry for the post but I am worried if it will be vulnerable or not.
