I am considering purchasing a couple Cisco items from them.
We are upgrading the power in our data center and moving to an APC 5000VA UPS. It uses an L6-30P 220v plug.
I have asked for a quote from our data center and they have said it will be $0 install but $400/month.
Is that reasonable?
The only reason I ask is because they quoted me an L5-30P which is 30amps over 120v for only $225/month.
Some informations about it
Disk 30 GB

Burst 256 MB (both guar?)
Guar 256 MB

Cpu 400(AMD Opteron 2356)
Traffic - (the plan shows 400 GB,but nothing in hypervm)

I'm about to buy server for hosting but how is it possible to make two different IP's from one server?
I mean some places won't let register unless you have two different nameservers with two different IP's.
While I am used to reselling and domain registration stuff, I am totally new to DNS stuff..I tried many searches and readings without hope.
that's why I need your help.
We have a problem that makes both incoming and outgoing emails from our website's email server not going or received, without any failure message or error message on both sides: the sender and receiver.
We talked to our webhosting company- they do not own, but host on a dedicated provided by Iweb in Canada - and they told us a quick solution for this:
To buy a private IP address, therefore our websites with them will not get blocked as spammy IP, setting us away from the dozens of sites they have on the same server IP (as domaintools reverse IP reported: xx other sites hosted on this server).
The company I work for agreed on this solution immediately as we are loosing customers for this problem.
They charged us 8$ a month for this "private ip".
We had the same problem for another day after their solution, when I checked domaintools, I found our websites are still on the same IP of the company. I called them, and the Admin there told me: it's a hidden CNAME setting that is not shown to public because it's "private" and the delay happenned because we had to contact Hotmail staff and wait for their reply to include it in their safe list, but others as Gmail and Yahoo do not require contacting them and will go through automatically."
My question is:
- What is Private IP/ Private DNS?
- Why and how it is used to prevent false blocking/bouncing?
- Does that mean they had to sell it to every domain, while their IP is not on blacklists (I checked it).
- Is Private IP just an internal setting or it has to be bought from a large ISP
like regular/public IPs? and if just some settings, is this price fair? we pay 120$ annually for hosting one site with them.
- They told us they put our other two sites on theis same new private IP. How can this be possible?
- I cannot understand: Hotmail can prevent our emails from reaching inboxes, but can it also prevent its users emails from reaching us?? Is this issue a Private-IP related??
- What do you think the real problem is, and what advice(s) should I follow to have our emails going and coming smoothly in the future?
Note: We don't send unsolicited emails ever. We only have a 1500-member mailinglist that we send a newsletter to, once every few months.
Our daily email traffic is about 10 to 20 messages in and out.
