My Ping/packets Lost
Feb 20, 2008I'm getting slow server response times I've been struggling with this for quite some while.
Here is what I know so far:
1. My website divinelightingdotcom through justping returns average 60-80% packets lost for all locations but Santa Clara, which usually has 0-20% loss.
2. My VPS is in Dallas
3. My ISP is also in Dallas, yet justping their website returns 0 packets lost
4a. When I ping my site from Atlanta, the avg trip is 44 ms
4b. However, the first access of my website through a browser usually takes about 5-10 seconds to respond
4c. I assume that my customers have this same experience (if so, this is killing me on my sponsored search advertising)
5. subsequent navigation through the website is usually acceptably fast.
6. wait an hour or so, and the initial page load has 5-10 second response delay again (can be any page on the site)
7. perhaps related, WinMTR from my location in Atlanta shows an comcast IP in virginia that consistently has 20% loss. I have opened a trouble ticket with Comcast.
Packets Lost
Jan 28, 2008what is packets lost,
I used just-pings.com site and its says my site had 100% losts packets in some locations, what does this mean?
One of my other host doesn't have any packets lost, so for a new package should I go with them, rather than the host which has packets lost?

When I asked my host they said do not trust just-ping and told me to use,

Does this site check for packets lost?

My Server Is Very Unresponsive, Very High Ping
Nov 3, 2009Server load is under 1, nearly 0 io.
Ping between 200-300, normally it is around 50.
DC says their network is fine and it is my server.
So load under 1, almost no hard drive access, why is the ping so high?
High Ping + Packet Loss At Dedicated Server
Aug 1, 2009I am facing high ping and packet loss issues with a server hosted at hetzner.de (CentOS + WHM)
For some unknown reason pings go high and stay like this (average 1500ms) until I reboot the server.
Here is a screenshot of tracert from server to me: [url]
15ms Ping Vs 40ms Ping Vs 170ms Ping
Nov 2, 200815ms ping vs 40ms ping vs 170ms ping
Which you think is still acceptable for a website?
High-End Linux Hosts
Aug 27, 2008My company's done shared hosting with our web site thus far. (I've gathered that the best of the best in shared hosting include Steadfast, DowntownHost, HostGator, Lunar Pages, and WebzPro. Any to add to the list, feel free!)
We're now thinking about moving to higher end hosting, i.e. a dedicated or managed server. So my questions are:
- Who are the biggest names and best quality Linux hosts in this category? That is, if those I mentioned above are "bargain" hosts, who are the "high end" hosts?
- What is the difference between a "virtual private server," a dedicated server, and a managed server? Ideally we'd like to still have a hosting package where security is taken care of and there's a lot of customer support to fix problems, but with our own dedicated resources.
Premium Hosts With High-End Powerful Shared Hosting
Oct 7, 2008Im a webdesigner so when looking for hosting i try to find one that is simple to manage, hardware powerful, lots of ready to install scripts and a beautiful webmail like Atmail or Zimbra.
So im looking for a powerful / quality high end "shared" hosting package.
Until now i have looked at:
- Mediatemple
(as @mail, exelent support but slow in Europe)
- Mosso
(is always good to be powered by rackspace but i think that the cloud hosting concept is still unsstable. Any experience?
- SimpleHelix (realy fast magento demo store, lots of scripts, @Mail and seems to have a fast network to europe)
So any advices on premium shared hosting?
An in Europe, any company similar to mediatemple or simplehelix?

FIN Packets
Nov 1, 2008One of my client has the following question but I don't have enough knoweldge on this topic. Hope some network experts out there can give me some advises.
I want to do this:
1. TCP SYN negotiation using fixed port
2. HTTP request
3. ACK
4. Another HTTP request (control words)
5. ACK
6. Another HTTP request (control words)
7. ACK
Unfortunately, I can only accomplish this:
1. TCP SYN negotiation using fixed port
2. HTTP request (control words)
3. ACK
4. FIN
5. TCP SYN negotiation using ANOTHER port
6. HTTP request (control words)
7. ACK
8. FIN
There is too much overhead in the second method. Can you comment on why the first method doesn't work? It processes the first HTTP request but ignore the second, third, etc. HTTP requests. WHY? Do I always have to choose another port to processes another HTTP request?

Dropping Packets
May 24, 2009Is it normal for a ton of packets to be dropped? My server goes so slow after it gets a bunch of connections, even if I kill everything (i have to restart), and I can't figure out what the problem is. on my other servers it says no packets were dropped. how can i fix this?

Dropping Empty UDP Packets
May 15, 2008I currently have my own dedicated server located with the following prefs;
Linux: CentOS 4.6 (final)
Kernel Version: 2.6.9-67.0.15.ELsmp
I know this is possible, but I am seeking how to drop empty udp packets automatically with iptables.
How-to: Drop INVALID SYN Packets With Iptables

Incoming / Outgoing Packets Blocked
Jun 22, 2009I am facing very unique issue at two of my servers hosted at hivelocity from last 3 or 4 months.
In every couple of days all incoming and outgoing activity get stopped except on port 3386 (RDP) i.e. no one can get website hosted on the server or neither I can access any website from the server but all other services continue to work. A reboot to the server will solve the issue but that is only a temp solution.
I have checked event logs one by one but no issue or error found on it. I have even run the server without firewall but still it stops working.
Scanned the server from 3 different antiviruses one by one but they didn't found any virus.
Datacenter tech staff monitored the server and found no DoS or other such kind of attack on the server or IP.
I am totally clueless on this issue on how to solve it.... anybody here who can help me?
OS: Windows 2003
Firewall: Previous hardware based, then software based and now windows firewall (same issue with all)
Third party softwares: No
Scripts: ASP, ASP.NET, PHP
Database: SQL and MySQL
No other software installed on the server
Linux Firewall - Filtering Out Zero Length Packets
Aug 13, 2008I run CentOS 5.2 (Sometimes CentOS 4.6). I have been messing around with IPTables, and cannot find out how to filter zero-length packets.
I believe I might need an unclean module. I have already done hours of reading and researching, but I have come up with nothing, for I do not think this is that common.
If anyone could please let me know the commands to use to filter out all zero-length packets, or the unclean module I need to use with IPTables, I would really appreciate it.

The report just says Invalid IN. Does anybody have any suggestions on what would be causing this? I use Mail.app myself and have never had problems with it triggering the firewall.
Universal Hosts (uni-hosts) Two Week Mini Review
Apr 2, 2008I was in the market for a new dedicated server after a couple of years with my previous provider. The previous provider did nothing wrong but they were no longer competitive when it came to CPU and memory.
I moved first to geekrack. And I left them after a week and a half as they never were able to get my rDNS records setup.
I found Universal Hosts on this forum and gave them a shot. I had asked for an operating system that they didn't offer normally (Debian 64 bit) and they said that they could do it. However, when my server was setup it was 32 bit Debian instead. They apologized and had Debian 64 bit setup less than 24 hours later.
When I asked them to get rDNS records setup it took a few hours but they were setup correctly and they worked.
Universal Hosts is also a BurstNet reseller but compared to my other attempt at using a BurstNet reseller they are fantastic. While the initial config was incorrect they worked quickly to fix it and were very professional about it.
So after two weeks - so far so good. Keep up the good work UniHosts!
Apache :: Virtual Hosts With Windows 8 Hosts File
Aug 11, 2013I am running Apache2.2, PHP5.I have been running with virtual hosts on a Windows 7 environment fine for a couple of years successfully, but have just had to move to a Windows 8 environment.It looks like Apache and PHP have installed and are working fine, but my Virtual hosts are now not being recognised. From what I can tell, it is the Windows 8 hosts file that is having a problem, as it looks as though it is now just setup to Block websites.
If I make the host file just have the one line127.0.0.1 localhost entry, then the very first Virtual Host from my apache config file will come up, but the rest are not found.If I put the usual 127.0.0.1 mywebsite.name aliasname is appears as though my website works momentarily and then is blocked..
Directadmin Hosts Or Cpanel Hosts
Aug 16, 2008Recently I stumbled along a host on here with a good rep and that uses direct admin.
Because they were very nice on the live support I signed up to see what direct admin was like.
Its very diferent from cpanel. Some parts seem to be harder to use like the phpmyadmin requires the username and password to the database you created not the control panel username and password like cpanel. Although I guess that could be a good security feature just in case some one gets into the control panel they can not get into the phpmyadmin, then again if they are smart and were able to get into the control panel they could get into ftp and look what the username and password is on the config file for the script you are using.
The bandwidth meter seems to be better in direct admin although I think its acting up for me as its putting yesterdays bandwidth on todays. I was told by the host that it updates every 2 hours and at first it did but now its gone to every day. Oh and unlike cpanel this bandwidth meter includes bandwith used by the control panel.
Niether one from what I can tell counts sftp though at least for the hosts I have right now.
High Server Load / High Swap / Lots Of Httpd
Feb 20, 2008I have a cPanel server with 4GB RAM
My server hangs time to time, once or twice a day. This is the last status when it happens.
Server Load 75.90 (2 cpus)
Memory Used 92 %
Swap Used 65.78 %
When I was still inside SSH when it happens, the processes I can see inside "top" are a lot of httpd processes.
So I "killall -9 httpd", I had to do it 30~40 times
#killall -9 httpd
#killall -9 httpd
#killall -9 httpd
x 30~40 times until no pid process found & the server load is back to normal.
Before that, I check httpd fullstatus, they look very normal, same goes to what I see inside WHM Apache status & cpu usage status.
At first I thought it was a memory problem after consulting with a server admin, so I replaced all 4GB new ram stick (such a waste)
Plesk 12.x / Linux :: High Memory Usage - Swap So High
Nov 14, 2014This is my free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 1998 1903 95 0 45 542
-/+ buffers/cache: 1315 683
Swap: 2662 36 2625
Not good ....
I got 5 wordpress and 5 statics website on this server and 100 visitors by 24H00 each day.
Question 1 : Why the memory is so low and the swap so high ?
Question 2 : Why i don't find high usage process in top command ?
Question 3 How can i resolve this problem ?
My Server Is Very Slow, High CPU, High Apache Load
Oct 31, 2009My server is very slow, High CPU, High Apache load....
I got a new server and i had setup a script on it.
No server tweaks has been done.
I run a filehosting site so it gets very slow when traffic is high.
Here is some info:

Server High Load/high Mysql Usage
Jul 2, 2009I have a site that is eating up my server resources and need to know what the best solution for this is. I'm thinking of getting another server just for mysql but do not know what specs the server should be to handle the current traffic/database load and have the site run smoothly without slowing down to a snail's pace.
An alternative is to get another server just for the videos being served and leave the database and html on the current server. This is where I'm stuck and don't know what route to take with this.
My current server stats:
Dual Xeon 5130
4GB RAM
250GB
50 Mbit/sec
CentOS 3.9
Website traffic stats:
15,000 visitors/day
150,000 pageviews/day
Serving videos
I've attached screenshots of top and bandwidth usage per day. Hopefully with this information you could tell me if I need another server or if there are any things I can do to the current server to help things move faster.

High Load From High Iowait
Jul 2, 2008I am running in a High load problem lately. I have one of those cheap 1and1 servers which was running fine until 2 weeks ago. Once I rebooted accidentaly, it did not come back with some unrepairable kernel errors and I had to re-image it.
I chose to reimage the server with CentOS 5, for better support. The new re-image worked fine for some days, at least so I thought and now I am having high loads. The server crashes if not monitored every moment as the load is unpredictable.
Just a restart of the Apache will bring the server back to normality, but I am not sure if it is apache or some other script to be blamed.
I have beeing monitoring through apache server-status, but I cannot organize something unusual in the high load moments.
At this moment for example:
top - 09:00:36 up 15:43, 3 users, load average: 3.57, 4.60, 5.32

So my server is "unresponsive" for abour 18 hours, burst net didnt answer my tickets and I dont know what to do. Ive been with this setup for almost 5 months with no problems, No changes have been made to hardware or software.
Im using Centos 5.0
Lost Php Handler
Jul 8, 2008Changing php version to 5.2.6
I just lost the handler....no php handler at all( old: DSO), rebuilding again (second time)...
anyone knows why this happened?
and what should I do, since the last easyapache rebuild didn't work?
5GB Space Lost
Jun 2, 2008We delete LOGS.
We delete QUEUE mail.
After we add up all the space of the counts.
space of count1 + space of count2 + space of count3 + ... ALL COUNTS
And TOTAL < to 2GB included MySQL space
But space used (say Vistuozzo), is 8.47 Gb!
How we can understand this?
Ok, maybe 2 GB of CENTOS + cpanel + WHM+ MySQL + Files config = 2 GB
Home + MySQL = 2GB
4 GB is very different to 8.5 GB!
Ok think in 3 GB of SO+WHM+CONFIG add 2 GB of files this = 5 GB
