"Easy Web Publishing" Is Really Hostopia
Sep 13, 2008
I finally found out who's behind "Easy Web Publishing". It's Hostopia, "a leading provider of wholesale private-label, web, email, and application services." They buy up hosting accounts. They recently bought Tucows' hosting business, for example.
Hostopia is in Fort Lauderdale, FL. They in turn are being bought by Deluxe Corporation (NYSE:DLX), which is mostly a company that prints blank bank checks. THey are branching out, since check printing is a declining business.
For some strange reason, Hostopia is hiding behind the name "Easy Web Publishing". They were more up-front about the Tucows acquisition. Actually, it's encouraging to find out there's a major company behind the thing, rather than a few guys with some servers in a colo.
Meanwhile, I'm trying to migrate away from them. Moving to APlus didn't work out well. Next, HostGator, if the survive the hurricane. HostGator HQ is in Houston.

EZpublishing, which I've used since 2000, is exiting the web hosting business. They're "migrating" their users to something called "Easy Web Publishing".
"Easy Web Publishing" has no contact address, no Dun and Bradstreet listing, and no web presence until last week. I called their support number, asked for the actual name and address of the business, and was told that only the legal department could give out that information.
Here's their web site: [url]. Yes, that's all there is.
Meanwhile, I'm migrating sites away from them to APlus. One moved, four to go. I have 7 million records to load into MySQL, which makes migration a slow process.

I found at least half a dozen bad comments on various sites regarding Hostopia (googling Hostopia review).
Does anyone have any other indicators positive or negative about them?
The thing I most care about is if end-customers are happy with their support and service.

I have a Reseller client that has a custom app that requires a virtual directory with special permissions. The app uses a MS Excel add-in as its front end on the user PC. Is there a way to register and publish this app for the resellers web sites without have to create the folder and set the permission by hand?

Parallels Plesk Panel for Windows, 11.0.9 Update #62, Windows Server 2012 Standard 64 Bit.
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION : Permissions assigned to the site are getting reveted after creating/updating page via "Web Presence Builder"

The site is using IUSR_*****1,but when try to use presence builder ,IUSR_**** is added . We sort this issue by adding IUSER for the particular folder (manually from the server side) but after publishing the page error come again.

I'd really like to set up load balancing for one of my CPU heavy apps. (it's on about 10 machines that are NOT identical, ie. some big, some small)
Currently, I just use a PHP script to direct people to various servers, but it doesn't handle balancing & failover well, and I don't like that the URL changes to www2, www3, www4, etc.
I've looked in to some simple balancers like Pen, Pound and Balance, but I can't find a crucial weighting / balancing configuration. I've also looked at DNS round robin, but that doesn't seem to be sticky, or have weighting or failover.
So, is there any simple http load balancing software that can handle my requirements?
- Stickyness
- Weighted Balancing ( preconfigured or based on responsiveness)
- Failover

1. Install CSF
2. Install Iptables if it's not installed (apt-get install iptables on redhat/centos)
3. In WHM under "# ConfigServer Security&Firewall" click on firewall deny ips
4. Open a 2nd window, Goto Main >> Server Status >> Apache Status
5. Check if there are any spammers with lots of connections to a specific file, that's how I got a lot of the IP's.
6. Goto http://ws.arin.net/whois/?queryinput=99.225.243.201
7. Enter the IP you found at "Server Status" and enter it at ws.arin.net to get the proper CIDR which you can easily add to your CSF deny hosts file (which is open in another window)
8. Get a tea and watch the server status closely.

As many of you may have also experienced, Easy CGI went from being one of the best hosts (I had them for 7 years and they were great), to one of the worst. They migrated to new servers and literally destroyed our site, lost data, did a search and replace of our code (yes, this actually happened), and brought our sites down completely. After about 100 hours of on-line support, chat, phone calls, emails, etc. we have to move on.
The things that were great (prior to the debacle) about EasyCGI was the Windows hosting, fast performance (FTP access was great), and the controls that were available.
I'm finding it difficult to match what we used to have. I've tried GoDaddy's VPS packages and that was a complete bust due to FTP performance (would have literally taken us months to just upload our web site ... about 10 GB total).
I tried Network Solutions, but they are only Linux and although they told us they support ASP Upload, ASP Email, and a number of other controls, now tell us that those are not supported.
I've also tried APLUS.NET and 1AND1. Same peformance issues.
anyone have any recommendations for hosting that would meet these needs?
Windows (Virtual or Shared)
30 GB + disk space
Unlimited Email
Form Mailers (CDONTS or ASP Mail)
ASP / ASP.NET / AJAX
DSN with Microsoft Access databases
Ability to work with SQL Server (not MySQL) databases
ASP Upload (or similar) that can be coded in ASP to upload files
FAST PERFORMANCE
Unlimited FTP accounts (we create a folder and FTP account for each of our customers)
Unlimited (or very high) transfers monthly (~ 1000 GB/MO +)

The most common way is tar the whole files and downlaod it. But as there's also mysql DB. The common way is usually take a lot of time to restore it.

I going to develope website which allow users to register their anonymous email address.
Lets call that domain privateemail.com
so, user is able to register address: user@privateemail.com and he provides us his valid email, lets say user@gmail.com
From now, we want to redirect all emails sent to user@privateemail.com to user@gmail.com.
Is there any easy and fast method to add such redirection into Exim (or any other MTA)?

I want to share my recent experience with the Magento installation.
I tried to install Magento on my basic Goddady Hosting but it failed because the zend and PHP version is too hold.
I tried as well to install on one of my other customer hosting (1and1.fr)
And after a long time of uploading all the files and configuring the .htaccess files, It failed when I was on the almost last step : database information.
So I finally found a better hosting solution for Magento which works good.
This is the link for the tutorial how to set up your Magento Store

I've got a customer that has a website at hisdomain.com . He created a subdomain called dev.hisdomain.com for the new version of his website. Now he wants to take it live. Had he created dev.hisdomain.com as a subscription instead of a subdomain, it would have been easy to "rename" the old site to old.hisdomain.com and then rename the new site to the current name.
Am I going to have to move all the files around at the command line or is there an easier way to switch around the sites? The server in use is CentOS 6.6
I thought that those were my options.

any 'easy' smtp / pop / imap package or installer w/o having to read up on exim etc.?
I want an email server quickly, w/o having to become an expert...
I'd go w/ a hosted service, but I open allot of pop3 connections... (program I use downloads one email, closes connection, reopens... repeat)...
There's lots of cookbooks out there, but they require quite a bit more time commitment (and configurability) than I want / need.
Is there any dumbified installs available? I tried with webmin, but even that wants me to manually configure a postfix / imap server bridge.=
