Dreamhst Terminates Account Locks Me Out Of Sites
Feb 10, 2009
Looks like Im not the only one being canned for alleged "black hat seo, scaping" reason. I have no idea what that was about? Blogda that used RSS feeds? What bothers me the most is lack of response from them about giving be access to get data for my sites. Terri from DH just deleted my support tickets. Does anyone have other contacts at DH? I was being a*hole or anything, just asked what exactly did I do wrong and get access to db and content.

For the past couple of days, I've noticed that there is alot of apache processes running in the "D" state and that my IO wait is up to %80. I straced one of the processes and the result is its locking on a php session:
$ strace -p 3230
06:57:12 open("/var/lib/php/session/sess_86ecf346c6f7adba93cb1077f6b95d43", O_RDWR|O_CREAT,
0600) = 44
06:57:12 flock(44, LOCK_EX
And this is the output of lsof
[root@xeon ~]# lsof | grep session

What are the pros (other than saving money) and cons of having multiple sites (4) on one hosting account? Is it recommended to have separate accounts?

i have about 80 domains with godaddy and about 30-40 with 1and1. i have two hosting packages with 1and1 a "home" package and a "business" package. i have a main site up on the business package right now. the home package has tons of files from an old forum that really could just be wiped out.
My question is that i have a few sites being developed right now. 3-4 to be exact, can i host them all on the same package? i want each to not be a sub of anything. What do i do? Calling tech support yielded worthless answers. Do i need a different type of account?

As a domainer I have several domainnames I like to add to a hostingaccount.
Many of the domains will have a blog or minisite.
At this moment I have a shared hosting account with unlimited domains.
But for seo reasons it is better not to link the domains/urls to eachother cause they have the same IP.
What can you recommend me to have all the domains on different IP's?
Or is there another way to do this,I heard something about c-class....
If I have to put the domains on different IP's on my shared hosting account I will have to pay $2,50 for an IP per month,this will be quite expensive.

dreamhost deleted all sites and cancel the account without any notifications!
they just say "Customer agrees to not engage in activities pertaining to Black Hat SEO, Spamdexing, and so-called "Scraper sites."
but i have nothing of that. maybe some mistake have happend and some content was uploaded wrongly... Why not to ask to remove that?
i just have web-site like directory with google adsence and thats all off it!
i can you beleive before the cancelation thay send me a letter that my money that i gave them for next year is happily got!
that a shamely bad guys!

I am just wondering what is normal when you point a domain name to a folder on an existing hosting account, as far as the urls in the address bar go?
I have my own website which has mega space, and my host allows up to 5 domains to be hosted in folders...so I thought I'd host b/friend's new website there.
His site is a WordPress installation.
I pointed the A record of his domain name to my hosts ip address , and it resolved fine. However, when I click on any of his articles, the full url of mysite is displayed in the address bar of the browser, which I don't want.
I've never tried to host another site on mysite before and just wondering what is normal as far as urls go? I'm thinking I've either missed a step somewhere, or it's a WordPress thing, or a host thing, or it's normal and I'm wasting my time trying to find a fix.
The ideal situation would be that the full urls of his_site are showing in the browser address bar.

I have about 5 sites all hosted on my same hosting account. One of those domains is attached to the hosting account. I place my other domains in a folder of a sub-directory of my main domain. This has been working fine, up until today when i noticed a weird error. I give you a little example of how my sites are setup
my main domain:
www.maindomain.com
My other sites hosted in a sub-directory of my main domain:
www.maindomain.com/sites/site2/
www.maindomain.com/sites/site3/
How my other sites appear on the web:
www.site2.com
www.site3.com
This works fine for every page until i go to www.site2.com/index.php
It redirects to www.maindomain.com/sites/site2/index.php for some reason

existing account have enabled catch all account automatically & i don't know how?
Main >> Server Configuration >> Tweak Settings
Default catch-all/default address behavior for new accounts. "fail" is usually the best choice if you are getting mail attacks.
currently it is tick marked on fail
And forwarders has been set to e.g jeetu@jeetu.info to domain automatically & also i don't how?
when i try to delete this forwarder its shown deleted successfully
Code:
Email Forwarding Maintenance
jeetu@jeetu.info's mail will no longer be redirected to jeetu.
then again i checked forwarder & found that forwarder is not deleted why?
what could be the problem?
due to this our clients are facing out of disk space running problem & they are not able to get future emails
1. now i want to disable catch all account for all existing accounts at one go
2. also i want to terminate forwarders for all existing users at one go
Let me know how to do this

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 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.
So really what i need to know is:
Has anyone else seen this before?
Should i be concerned?
Is there anything i can do about it?

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?
