how much traffic the GoDaddy Economy Plan can handle. I currently am hosting a proxy using this plan and was wondering if and when I will need to upgrade....
When will I have enough traffic that I need a dedicated server?
I have a proxy site which is hosted with a proxy host, do i have to use proxy hosting as i have an account with another host i might want to use. The proxy hosting has run out.
I know this is asked loads on the forums, but so far I have no real solutions. Yes, I need a proxy vps. We want to start quite small, this is what we must have (don't go posting about whether we use it or not, we want it ):
256mb private RAM (not bothered about burst) 5gig space minimum 150 minimum bandwidth (more = better) public proxies allowed (most vps providers I have contacted don't) unmanaged (basic support nice but not needed)
I think that's it, oh price, I know it's v.low but there are some hosts, there must be more: $25/month
Looking for dedicated server that allows adult and proxy hosting and comes with PostgreSQL. Really looking for a more established host and not some one that’s going to steal my money and run. am open for your ideas on what you think is the best.
i have a Pentium D 820, 2GB Ram at LT where i am hosting a few proxies. Using Centos and Directadmin.
It's realy fast and i am happy with it. The only problem i am facing is that load is jumping up to 60 sometimes but just for a few seconds. Especially when a lot of people are using the proxy and it slows down a bit. That affects only the proxified pages and not a few personal html sites i also host there.
At the moment i am seeing in top that the CPU usage varies from 0,2 to 8, 12, 21 etc but just for a second or two
I'm using the isapi rewrite module for iis 6 which uses the exact same syntax as mod_rewrite in apache. I'm not very well versed in apache and need getting this to work asap. Basically I have a directory in our website: URL....
I need to forward this to an IP address, for example to this address:100.12.33.45/folder.While keeping the original URL (www.xyz.edu/folder). I'm unsure of the apache syntax for this.
I work for a company who is on Microsoft Technology, IIS 6.0 specifically is what I deal with day to day. We support classic asp 3.0, .net and php ( through plain jane cgi mode *yuck* ) and I am newly hired and bring ruby on rails to the table.
Eventually we are going to replace the entire stack with ruby on rails as I re-code our existing tech. While waiting for IIS 7 to solve the majority of their problems with the lack of MS made IIS modules for rewriting URLs, fast CGI, Server-Side Forwarding I need to get my application out the door and for it to be stable.
Our server is a 2.4ghz Xeon with 512mb and our first order of business is to finally push it to 2g ram. That will help Ruby best as the application is running. What I would like to do is Have IIS sit in front of Mongrel, a ruby HTTP server serving my RoR applications, and pass requests to it.
For example the IIS right now is serving 3 .org/edu sites. We use a company to redirect our URL requests to our IP and IIS has 3 virtual servers passing on the buck all on port 80. It works very well.
I want mongel to sit at, for example, port 8080 and have 1 .org that we serve to use mongrel to serve the content. As I understand it this is called Server-Side Forwording, aka Proxy, and is very ellusive on Windows.
The options I have found is a) the use of Microsoft ISA which is probably out of the question. b) an ISAPI such is ISAPI Rewrite or c) Pound
Our problems arise is that we don't have the ability to toss up another machine for Pound or ISA. Pound can run on CentOS out the box but again, no machine as we are funded by grants, and that will ruin one of the network admins remote desktop uses [so I understand but I could be wrong.]
I have posted on the ISAPI Rewrite forums to see if their 'proxy' feature is indeed what I am looking for. I don't have anything bad to say about Microsoft tech, I enjoy Apache 1x, 2x and have come to respect IIS 6 as well. I just find it hard to find a lot of solid products and documented howto's on MS. One thing I don't find lack of is people with the same darn problem and nobody willing to share solutions exept the ones that are really just technology previews.
So my question is : Has anyone has run across this need and what you did to solve it. Am I on the right track? Again, solutions like mod_proxy for apache isn't an option I need IIS.
I'm from a country that block websites! Recently they blocked a useful website that my friends and me can't live without!
We already have a dedicated server (located in the US). We need to do the following:
- register a domain name, and when this domain is requested, requests will be served through our server. That means that our server will get the requested website then delivers it to the user who has requested the website
I know I can simply install a web proxy script such as CGIProxy and use it to surf this blocked website or other blocked websites as well, but that website heavily uses Javascript which I noticed that it does not function probably with scripts such as CGIProxy .
I do not need a detailed HowTo of course, I just need to know where to start from, is this related to some apache option? Do I need some specific software to be installed on server? I need any clue to get me started.
Okay, I keep seeing VPS (and dedicated for that matter) providers that say you have control over your box... and then forbid things like IRC, adult content, and proxies. Why? What is it about those three types of content that strike fear into the hearts of hosting providers?
I can see forbidding those on shared hosting accounts. The extra CPU and bandwidth required could really put a crimp on the other accounts. But with VPS and dedicated, you are paying for a portion of the CPU and bandwidth so why would the provider care what you do with them?
way to centrally login our FTP clients. We currently run ftp1/2/3/4.[url]and would like to have simply [url]which would authenticate the user and push the user to the relevant server.
This would hopefully work in the same way as a Radius Proxy.
if my main site hosted in usa and reverse proxy server located in UK or Canada. will my site load still quickly or be slow dramtically? both use linux and apache. or canada user will quickly load my site or still slow? how about usa customers?
I'm outsourcing some works overseas and my oversea employees are directly contacting the customer to discuss his needs. Everything is fine except when a client sees the email IP address (he is dealing with a local company, how come he is being emailed me from India or some similar places).
So I decided to create a proxy server for the oversea employees. I need the one that requires the browser setting change to have all the traffic passing through the server/VPS, therefore the IP will be the IP of the server and there's no way to find the original IP (of course no problem is it exists in the proxy server, but not showing in any way to the customer).
The problem is I absolutely have no idea how to do this.
- Can this be accomplished on a VPS or a server is required?
- Do I need a Linux or Windows OS?
- Do I need any software? If so, could you recommend some.
I would like to setup lighttpd with automatic insertion of some ads text to each html page requested by server.
I already managed this on Apache by adding perl scirpt as output filter, which actually work pretty well and fast. But the purposse of this project is freehosting with a lot of request's per second which will be critical for Apache and Lighttpd would do a better work in this case.
My solution, which I will use if anything better appears is to have Apache configured as a proxy inserting the ads and forward all request's to lighttpd.
