I've been with JaguarPc since 1999 and I just realized that through all my years here I never gave them a shout out. These guys are very helpful and it's amazing the type of service they offer for the money. I have 2 virtual private servers with them and absolutely no issues. They manage the entire server for me for $33.95 a month. So if anybody needs good hosting:

Please post your preferred hosts here that allow dedicated server hosting with adult content.
I know Softlayer does, I need some cheaper alternatives.
I need 2U of colocation (I have 2 1U servers) I need to home in San Diego with 24/7 access.
I do not want to be in either I2B or AIS facilities.
I am leasing servers for about 2 years now, and now I wanted to start with colocation. I am selling VPS so I need VPS nodes. I would buy node with 32Gb RAM, latest Xeons, Hardware Raid 10, etc. so I figured that it is better to colocate in the long run.
Can you suggest me best colocation company in terms of quality of bandwidth and support.
I really need prompt support, ticket answered in 15 minutes, and only premium bandwidth.
Also, is there company in USA which assembles rack servers for a fee. I would like to pay them for the components I find on newegg and their fee, and that they order the components, assemble the hardware, test it, and send it to DC.
Alright, here's the deal--
I need a budget chicago server -- I know, very difficult to find (last company I went with was Singlehop, and they're great, but I can't afford it for what I'd wish to do.)
Anyways, here's what I need my server for --
Some personal, non busy websites(my webhost that I've been using is being let go by me :[ I need this server for it reliably.)
CentOS5 or RH4 is preferred.
cPanel is required
I intend to host a few websites, and TWO counter-strike 1.6 servers (not busy or CPU intense really)
So..
I purchased some services from hostfresh.com but after waiting 3 days for my hosting to be set up (just basic web host space) i decided to switch to wrzhost.com where i was ready to go within 10 min of buying the services. I sent a support ticked to hostfresh(before i asked for the refund) and a lady told me to contact sales , when i told her i was getting no reply she again told me to contact sales so i bought else where. I emailed sales and billing 2 times each and sent 2 support tickets to them over a week and a half but have gotten no reply at all and when i sent a ticket to the lady that was actually replying , she now wont reply to my tickets also.
Anyone else have a problem with them and how did you get your refund?
Paypal was used to pay
I need a company to register my domain, and then forward emails and urls to my actual site that is somewhere else. I don't need any actual web hosting or email pop (at the moment). My main requirement is reliability.
The company I currently use bounces some email to me and forwards other email to a black hole. They're also not replying to my mail, so it's time to leave. BTW, this is a company that has generally excellent reviews.
I've got a decent server, quad processor, 12GB ram, terabyte of hot swappable RAID 10 disk. Its at an Equinix site. They provide UPS, backup generators, etc and fiber to the usual major backbone folks.
But its a lights out facility. I want someone else to handle backups, rebooting when needed, etc.
I'd like to let someone else provide the service. Use my 2U server or I can rent yours.
Need MySql, Apache, Tomcat, SSL, Java, ssh access. I've got wildcard certs for SSL, domain registered, etc.
I'm guessing that I can get this for about $500 per month with low bandwidth (this is an IT application, not peer-to-peer or torrents.). Let me know if my budget is off base. I think one megabyte/second sustained over the month, 95% averaged is suffiicent. At least until the business grows, we can then talk about getting racks of blades at higher cost.
I am running a SQL test server here that is piping HUGE amounts of data for a test project I am running.
Approximately 30 queries a second - constantly. That's over 2.5M queries a day -- so we are talking big (I think?)
I am currently running this test on a
AMD Phenom 9300, 4GB RAM - SATA 500GB HDD and I am running MySQL 5.0.51a i386 on CentOS
I have programmed a process control for our applications purpose - basically it controls the launching of our SQL intense applications, and stops launching when the Load is greater than 2.5
I have plans to optimize the number of queries (I will build in a cache to some of the applications - and run INSERT statements all together) however I am looking for SQL tweaks that will improve performance. Would running the 64bit version work better?
We use dedicated servers at several data centers.
We have used a particular host since 1999 (we were shared/resellers then) and have used dedicated with them since 2001.
For a particular set of development servers, moderate traffic e-commerce sites and testing we use them.
One particular server has been our workhorse and it basically had a ridiculously low grandfathered in price.
Unfortunately they moved us. That's not a problem. The problem is they moved our dedicated machine with 3 drives to a vps.
So instead of our own machine, we share a machine, and instead of 3 drives, we have 3 partitions on one drive.
(the drives were 1 for OS, 1 for websites, and 1 for backups)
This is a windows 2k3 machine
The did this without notice or warning.
We saw it, then they mentioned it in a support ticket, and now refuse to discuss it (no response to questions)
So, unfortunately we hate to move.
We use 3 provider, none of them have we been with less than 3 years. We are super loyal if you treat us right.
WE dedicate and not co-lo. Co-lo def would save us money, but we just prefer a dedicated environment.
What we are lookng for is an entry level server to begin a relationship with a new host
for this machine
need two small drives (35 GB or more)
half gig or more of memory
p4 or more processor
100mbps port preferred
win 2k3
if you want to throw in a control panel great
(sounds crappy doesnt it? but thats what we used for many years)
multiple IPs
of course, feel free to make it better
looking to pay less than $199/mo - no setup
less than 150 would be stupendous.
willing to sign a contract.
AM I asking too much? considering u could probably do the above with spare parts? I don't know
Prefer North American based machines.
We really don't have that much of a simultaneous strain on these, they are work horses really.
Preferably in the Irvine area.
Requirements are simple:
Two AC outlets
1U server
5 IPs
256kbps or 60GB transfer
No 24/7 support needed
No monitoring
Was paying $49/mo, but my rates were recently jacked up.
I am trying to make a free shell service, and i was wondering if it was possible using a FreeBSD VPS, with CPanel, and additional IPs. Or would a dedicated server be required to do that?

I got a dedicated server running, which is administered by DirectAdmin, which I mainly use as a mysql server. Now my question would be, what would I do to give all resources possible to mySQL? I mean I donīt wanna take down directadmin and setup mySQL only, so I want to keep directadmin but give almost all server resources to mySQL?
What I did so far is adjust all tables, do indexes and stuff.
The background is that at certain times I face server loads of 40 caused by many external servers of mine querying the mySQL database on the server I am talking about.
So while the load is mainly below 0.1 it sometimes goes up to 40. So this peak I wanna slow down a little bit by giving all resources to mySQL. To say that beforehand splitting the queries from external servers is not an option - they all need to be done at the same time.
So I would really be interested and thankful in what you would advice to do to optimize the mySQL service?
BTW system is running on debian.
Speaking from personal experience only, who are the good, helpful hosts, who can give a reseller account, with servers physically located in the UK, giving 20Gb Bandwidth and 1Gb Disk space, has excellent email support (in English!!!!!) within 20 minutes of sending the email, full access to Cpanel including access to HTAccess, all for less than 20 pounds a month.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a colocated server with cpanel right now.
The cPanel license on my server just expired and I don't feel like paying for another month as there's 3-4 sites on that box that are still active.
I pay $80 a month for the colo with cpanel
So my questions are
1) What do you recommend (reseller vs vps) and who do I go with
2) How do I get my 4 sites off to the new cpanel with an expired license?
If anyone can help that'd be great. Looking to move within 48 hours
I have a E326 from IBM for a few months now (unused). But I need to put in online asap so I need a suggestion if you worked with him as a normal hosting server (no cluster) for the O/S.
I preffer CentOS is it ok with this server ? Otherwise fedora, suse?
I've been reading a lot on this forum lately for a good VPS solution for me, but I've not been too lucky. Perhaps I am just too lazy to read all the posts.
At any rate, I've been with Alpha Red for about a year now and I feel I need to get something new (been having some problems with my mail server and speed, and since it isn't managed, I don't want to worry about fixing it myself). Thus, I am looking for a good VPS solution.
My needs aren't critical, most personal/business type sites, with some client hosting (clients can get very demanding traffic, however, as they will commonly get featured on Digg or YouTube). Because of the clients, I feel I need something clustered with redundancy. I tried out Mosso and just couldn't stomache the simplicity and lack of control.
Disk space would be around 10GB or higher, bandwidth around 500GB or higher (1TB would look amazing to me), and managed is really a plus. However, my budget is only around $150/mo (currently paying $139 for a very slow dedicated server).
I've been tempted to try MediaTemple, but recently looked at Zone.net's clustered VPS, and KnownHost.
My quetsion is just the title,i have not build a website by myself,and i have not enough money to do it.
Now i want to creat a site,so could you tell me which site have free host,and it support php and sql.
The'v changed their homepage design and this time I personally think that the old design was a bit better than the new one,This one might work In terms of performance but I personally think that the new design might not work out pretty well.
View 14 Replies View RelatedMy dedi host, was having all sorts of problems with simply just setting up a box, taking them roughly a week, and I'm still waiting for a resolution.
Anyhow,
Windows validation failed, I contacted them to open up a ticket, They wanted the password to root because I've changed the default password they gave me, so I gave them the password
(1)Should I not be doing this, or do you have to give them the password when they ask.
(2)Can this have been resolved without giving them password to root.
They said it'd be resolved in an hour, I emailed them back and they said they'll email me when it's done. But they've closed off the ticket.
(3)Issue hasn't been resolved, how's anyone going to be working on it if the ticket is closed? Shouldn't that ticket be left open till the issue is resolved?
Wow I'm so green behind the ears with all this stuff.
I know nothing of server management, nothing about how to manage my VPS Can't even install a simple software and do not know how to secure my VPS on the other hand I am so busy I can't learn at least for a few months have trouble
Should I go back to share hosting?
I've got an older "Super Server P4" series server @ ThePlanet - it's been a great box for years. We recently upgraded php4 to php5 and did a mysql upgrade as well. Ever since, randomly, without warning, Apache stops terminating connections, so the max connections fills up, and httpd won't respond. Apache doesn't stop running, it just max's out and stops accepting new connections, so customers assume the server is "down", although email/FTP work fine.
The server never crashes, the loads stay down, but httpd just fills up and won't accept more connections. We can't increase max connections (we actually DECRESED IT), because they'll just keep piling up, never terminating, and then ultimately, it will crash the box.
My admin has worked for nearly 2 weeks trying to figure it out, and Scott (AtomicRocketTurtle) and his team have been evaluating it for about a week - it's happened 3x in 2 days ... last night, httpd quit responding for about 7+ hours and since we didn't have httpd monitoring, we never knew until the office opened this AM and I had two very angry customers. Scott suspects it may be some rogue application that triggers it that didn't affect it prior to the php5/mysql upgrades.
Both Scott and Parm, my admin, have about thrown in the towel and are recommending we retire the server and migrate to a new box.
It's older - much older .. I'm pasting specs below, RHEL3, Plesk 7.5 .. but just wonder, before retiring an old server that was RUNNING GREAT prior to the upgrade, maybe someone has seen this happen before?
If so - PLEASE LET US KNOW before I spend the $$$ on a new box.

opinion about what E-mail would be the best as a autoresponder and email campaign program. Something that can be configured to forward emails to different addresses from different recipients, automatic responces and scheduled email campaigns, all that kind of things. I would prefer an open source solution but if not any I would pay for that.
how to extract the text from an incoming email (through a script maybe) and input to another ougoing email?
I plan to host 20-40 domains that will include ~20 blogs total and roughly 20 SQL DB's. I anticipate 5-10 GB traffic / month.
With these requirements, can I realistically make use of a shared hosting plan (like HostGator's)? They claim unlimited domains, though I'm not sure how far I can really take this.
Update: shame on me: GB's, not TB's
I'm planning to operate my own dedicated server and bad news is I'm not much of a technical person. A friend recommends that I can use free Webmin as a front end (control panel) rather than paying for others. Do you think Webmin is suitable for newbie on this front?
