I have a WHM reseller, and am hosting my cousin's site. He wants all of his databases and info transferred to another hosting account he has with me. How can I do that for him, without losing anything and what have you?
View 13 RepliesI have watched the screencast on domains etc and I sort of get it, but I have a website for a client that already has email and a server and things but I have to transfer it. basicly the site is hosted on the old developers server and the email is on one of my clients just as an email host(eclipse). so I need to make the domain point to a new server and the email to point from that sever to eclipse without any disruption to the website and especially the email. because I can't afford to make any mistake on this I am asking for the best way to do this.
Do I just change the records on the domain(123reg) and the new server so that it all points to the new server then find the email records(MX or A, can't remember) and get the email server pointing to there after? where do I find these records? and will it cause disruption to the email because of routers and stuff updating as said in the screecast or is that just for new domains?
We are switching our servers, and I am trying to have the smallest amount of downtime possible. What is the best way to go from one host to another.
Should I have the old and new DNS info entered at the site registrar until the new site has been resolved?
I have been looking at the offers in the Web Hosting Talk->Advertising Forums->Web Hosting Offers->Dedicated Hosting Offers forum and I cannot find any explanation for the transfer value.
When an advertiser says 10Tb Transfer (ignore case, as I've seen an advert where it is 10TB in the subject and 10Tb in the body)
Anyway, my question, is the 10Tb in bits or bytes (cannot determine from the case, already established inconsistencies here)
Also, over what period of time is the 10T bits/bytes, E.G. is is that amount of data per day, week, month, year etc.

Summary on Issue I have with IX Hosting
I am disappointed on the option provide to me by IX webhosting to resolved my issue.
Summary:
1. My hosting and domain was handle by a previous staff which is charge to a CC belong to that staff.
2. The staff was fired and he filled a chargeback with his CC without me knowing it on the hosting.
3. Account was then suspended and there isn't anything that I can do about it.
Option left for me:
1. Nothing that IX webhosting is able to do beside asking me to recontact my ex staff to contact his bank which is not possible (the case was closed by the bank according to my ex staff when i was able to contact him).
2. Spending another 1 - 2 year time to rebuilt another website to bring in traffic since the url and hosting are frozen by IX webhosting.
3. Filled a complain to complain board and point this problem out to public where an admin or account making payment for URL and hosting can screwed up the company at any one point while hosting with IX webhosting.
how to transfer website from shared to dedicated hosting?
How can I connect to ftp in dedicated hosting?

I know you get what you pay for with hosting, but with the ridiculous overselling going on I am finding it hard to work out how much bandwidth I can genuinely expect to get with about 500MB space and 99%+ (preferably more like 99.5%) uptime for $5/month.
I will be using all this bandwidth for hosting legal mp3s (sanctioned for promotional use by labels and artists), and would prefer the host to be based in the US or UK.
I'm working on transferring my Hostings to a new server, but ran into some problems.
Transferring the data from one Plesk 12 server to another works quite well using the migration manager, although you have to create the service plans by hand as well as you need to work through the server configuration parameters.
After re-creating the service plans I wanted to link and sync them to the subscriptions, but unfortunately I have no success to do so, because everytime I try to get them in sync, it tells me that Apache ASP support is enabled for the subscription and needs to be disabled. Plesk then tells me, the setting is disabled, but next time you try to sync the subscription... ASP is back enabled.
Problem is that on the old server I had Apache ASP enabled and used it in my hostings.
I tried to solve the problem using the command line tools, but "./subscription -u domain.name -asp false" returns "SUCCESS: Update of domain 'domain.name' completed.", but you can guess, same problem.
As a last resort I disabled Apache ASP support for my hostings on the old server, deleted everything on the new one and I got no warnings before migrating about the missing ASP feature.
But unfortunately this procedure ended up with the same problem as before.
Is there a way to remove the ASP support from the existing subscriptions?
I have a dedicated server currently hosted over by Aplus.NET
I have a 3000 GB Monthly Transfer limit and we have been going over this limit for the past few months. This has resulted in a large sum of overage fees.
I am looking to go to another hosting company that is just as good as Aplus.NET, if not better... with a better traffic rate. A friend told me about Choopa.com and I wanted to know how good of a company they were. What are some other top reliable hosting companies with premium servers and that specialize in unmetered bandwidth?
i looking for the servers (powerfull and cheap) i take this post in vps forum 2 day's ago but i understand that it is better for me to take the post in dedicated forum my friend's :
1-vpn server(with many ip)-->with high transfer + good performance(for start)
2-server for starting image hosting (with high or unlimited transfer + 100mbps )+atleast 50_60gb h.d.d
what way to setup an server to server transfer?
I have set
Allow FXP transfers for authenticated users.
AllowUser FXP yes
on both servers but it doenst appear to work.
I have a client who has transferred her domain to my reseller account. The dns settings are all showing as being to my server:
Problem 1 is that she can't see the new site. She is seeing a very old site (not her last one) on her PC even though she has done a full refresh and cleared out her temporary internet files.
Problem 2 is that her emails aren't working. I can set up my computer to receive emails from her domain, and even though she is using exactly the same settings in Outlook it will not work for her (she has sent me screen shots so I know she it putting in the information correctly).
I am at a loss about what to do with these two issues. She knows that others are not seeing the same site as her, but is getting frustrated and I'm afraid that it is affecting my credibility with her.
I have submitted a support ticket to my provider (8 hours ago) and have not received a resopnse yet
So I've got a reseller account set up with about 71 individual accounts created under it. What's the easiest way to create a backup of the reseller account (including all accounts created under it) and send it to my new VPS? I have SSH enabled on the reseller and root access on the VPS.
Rsync seems somewhat intimidating but maybe I'm looking at it all wrong. I have limited command line experience. Maybe someone can shed some light on this for me? I'd like to have a method that I can get familiar with and re-use.
What does the concept of transferring a domain mean? I am asking all this because I have seen that freehostia has a service called: Domain transfer. It seems that it cost 9.95$. Then I would like to know what is the purpose of this domain transfer. I just thought that this domain transfer was the service provided for those who wanted to host a site in freehostia but had registered their domain with another company instead of with freehostia. What do you think about this?
Well, I have seen this choice of transfering a domain in another site called: http://www.bluereef.net/support/serverbasics/dns.html
So, could you help me understand the purpose and use of the service called transfering a domain that these two hosting providers mentioned above have?
I have one domain hosted as addon on Plesk. Now i want to migrate this add on domain from one user account to another user account. Is it possible to do this from plesk?
View 3 Replies View RelatedOne of my clients just asked me if $4.50 per GB of transfer is a lot (as they just found out that's what their web host is charging them). I told them yes, because that seems ridiculously high to me, but I'd like to give them a ballpark figure for what that should cost. I can't find any hosts that charge per GB of transfer though. Any ideas what that should cost?

i have two domain names:
domain.net and domain.com
I want to transfer the FTP content of domain.com to domain.net without havin to do it manually, (transfering data to my PC via FTP and resending it again)
Is that possible in WHM? and How?
Will it work with "Restore a Full Backup/cpmove file"?
I am trying to transfer a 1.1GB file from one of my servers to one of my servers in another data center.
What command would I use inside PuTTy to transfer the file via FTP, not SFTP.
I cannot use DN's so Ive had to use dot in place of periods below)
I have a domain name registered with Netfirms - lets call it mydomain dot com. I didnt want to use their hosting services, just reg'd the DN with them. I host the mydomain dot com website on my home PC. In order to get both mydomain dot com and www dot mydomain dot com to resolve to my Home IP address I had to create an A record for each on the Netfirms Domain manager GUI.
I have since purchased Hosting services from Webhostingpad dot com and now wish to move/point my mydomain dot com and www dot mydomain dot com to my webhostingpad dot com hosted account.
When I spoke with Webhostingpad about pointing mydomain dot com to them they said all I had to do was use their Name Servers on the Netfirms side and I should be set. When I asked 'what about the A records? Do I need to create A records on their side for mydomain dot com and www dot mydomain dot com' they said 'Nope' - once its pointed to their NS I should be all set
My questions are:
- Why did I need to create A records on the Netfirms side to point to my Home IP?
- Will what Webhostingpad is saying work (once I point my DN to their NS, and remove the existing A records on the Netfirms side, I should be good to go)
- Will both mydomain dot com and www dot mydomain dot com resolve properly to my webhostingpad server?
I just want to make sure this works before I do it and potentially down my website.
so this has been a drug out longer process than I realized it would be. I've never sold a website and I figured this would be a quick two-button process.
I asked Host Gator what I needed to do and they told me to register the domain at Enom and then they would send me the EPP code. Well, I registered with Enom, sent them proof it was really me, and they told me I could view the EPP code on Enomcentral
Well, I had contacted Enom and they told me that I had to ask Host Gator for help as they were responsible for helping clients with these types of issues. So, I contacted Host Gator and they referred me back to Enom... this is kind of pissing me off. My customer bought the website and domain and I've made an entire backup of the directory and he has that but the only thing left is to transfer the domain name to his preferred choice "Freeparking.com" and I just want to know how to do that.
I noticed now the domain is under hostgator domains and all I need is the EPP code. Has anyone ever had to transfer a domain through Enomcentral and how in the holy hell do you find the EPP code?
I have 2 webserver.
the first is running WS2003 EE and has my SSL certificate on it.
The other runs WS2008 EE.
I want to transfer my SSL Certificate from IIS6 in WS2003 to II7 in WS2008.
how can I do this? I am trying to do a migration/transfer from old webserver to new webserver.
So I went onto 1and1 to register my domain name. I went into the account today to cancel and have it transferred over to my host that I selected today. I recieve this email from my new host:
We have received your domain transfer order for xxx***********, however we haven't processed your order yet since we noticed that the domain status currently shows:
status: CLIENT-TRANSFER-PROHIBITED
It is likely because you registered the domain name recently. As per ICANN guidelines, a domain can be transferred 60 days after registering only. You can confirm the reason by checking it with your current domain registrar. We request you to re-submit the domain transfer order after that.
**So the other day when folks were telling me to buy a domain name from a cheap place no one said I would be stuck for 60 days. And when I spoke to 1and1 today they never said it would not transfer either..

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have domain name registered with GoDaddy and I check my domain name emails via GoDaddy. I want to signup with Hostmonster and do a domain name transfer to HostMonster so that both email, domain name, and hosting is handled by Hostmonster.
What are the exact steps to take to ensure that my email service is up all times (and not down during the 72 hours it takes for domain name transfers)?
I'm not sure when and where to point the nameservers. And when to setup the domain email on Hostmonster.
I know which is the transfer speed of my hosting? I have hired a plan with bluehost and I can only transfer files at 40 kb/s
View 14 Replies View RelatedI am the webmaster for a high level court system. We run mainly .php and MySQL like most do. We are in the process of doing a transfer to 1 and 1. I want to be able to test everything (database wise) before I do the transfer. I thought the best way to do so would be to purchase another DNS name and server and transfer everything there first to test and then when that is fully operational have a redirect to there and do the DNS name transfer from the old site to 1 and 1, and when the DNS name is on 1 and 1 take the redirect off . I don’t want any downtime at all.
This might not be the most cost effective but for downtime I thought it would be the best way, especially when I can have a live test before the transfer.
I thought transferring was simply assigning your domain to a different host. But apparently transferring is when you want to use a different domain registrar for your domain.
So what would be the term for simply assigning a host to a domain? And do registrars or hosts usually charge for this?
When I change servers, is it possible to transfer all the emails, folders, address book, etc, in old Webmail account to new Webmail account on the new server?
