Jun 25, 2008can you tell me of a few distribuitors/wholesale to get parts from for building a few 1U servers. I would like to find Supermicro cases/motherboards but if they are general computer parts I guess they work.

Is it just yum with the atomicrocketturtle repo?
Server Build Checklist
Sep 15, 2006Is there some sort of checklist of all programs and settings that should take place when building a new web server? I am outsourcing a server build to a new consultant and I know that basics of what needs to be installed but I am sure I am missing a few things, most importantly security issues.
Does anyone have an input on this or links that I might find useful?
Here is what I know needs to be built:
Free BSD
Apache 2
PHP 5
Mysql 5
cPanel
SuperMicro Server Build
Nov 7, 2009I received a chassis from SuperMicro today. It came with a translucent thin piece of plastic (about as thin as a piece of paper). The plastic has holes cut out that are roughly the same as the holes in the mother board. What is this thing? Is it just a guide so you know where to put the mounting screws?

Nov 13, 2008I run an online music archive site . Djs can upload their mixes to share and we also archive radio shows for people to listen back to.
Basically I was wondering if it would be possible to build a secondary server that could do this for me.
The secondary server could have multiple cast rippers running and could record internet radio shows, then once finished recording transfer it could send them over to my primary server to add to the website for people to download.

Dells And Parts
May 20, 2007i plan to buy some used 1750 and 1850 Dell servers and 2 new 1950. I need spare parts: I know i have to get Power Supply, Motherboard, headsink, and others (cdrom, floppy) from DEll, but what about hard drives, rams, cpu's? Can I get these things from outside companies such as buying the same technical specs SCSI harddrive from Seagate (which is generally cheaper) to replace failed harddrives in these Dell's? what about Rams (given same tech specs)? Will they fit!
i know building servers with SuperMicro case and server mobo, we can get generic parts. maybe we can go this route, but we need to know from those who have worked with Dells.
Quick Parts
Jul 21, 2007I am building a server using two Clovertown E5320 processors for a project. I need some suggestions for a motherboard and memory. I have looked at some boards on Newegg, but I'm still unsure. I do not have a large budget for the motherboard, so the cheaper, the better.
If anyone has other processors they would go with alternatively I'm open to suggestions there as well. It was either going to be a single Clovertown (later to be two) or two AMD Opteron 2212's....

Jun 14, 2007I got a good response last time with suggestions on where to go for co-location, and I've made a choice where I'll be co-locating within the next month or two. So now is the time to look into buying a server. Does anyone know of any good places to custom build 1U Servers online to get a quote and buy one?
I've looked at a few different places and tried searching on here, maybe the words I used in the search weren't right as all I found was dedicated server prices or resellers.
Custom Server Spec Opinion
Oct 7, 2007I'm considering building the following 1U rack server for colocation. I'm completely new to rack servers and colocation so I would be very grateful to hear your opinions:
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 CPU
ASUS P5B-VM SE Motherboard
8GB PC5300 667MHz Non-ECC RAM
500GB HDD
345W Power Supply
I also have a few specific questions:Are there any differences between the Q6600 and it's Xeon equivalent? (especially power wise?)
Are there any disadvantages using a desktop motherboard in a (1U) server? (again, especially power wise?)
I've read that non-ECC memory is a lot more acceptable for servers now than it was a few years ago, is this true?
Does a 500GB drive use much more power than a 160GB drive?
How many watts of power can I expect the server to use?
Does a 1U chassis usually come with uATX mounting points?

Parts To Fit Tyan Mboard And Supermicro Case
Jul 2, 2007I got a good deal on the Supermicro SC822T-R550LPB case, and then bought a Tyan Motherboard(S3970).
Unfortunately, the IO shield that comes w/the board does not fit the case, and the one from the case does not fit the mboard. A set of FAN cables do not reach the mboard either. Does anyone know of any place that sells these parts?
Apache :: Reverse Proxy - Some Parts Of App Not Working
Oct 12, 2012I am trying to set up a reverse proxy to the application Surveillance Station on my Synology NAS. Altough the reverse proxy works ok for other apps like Webadmin, Download Station and such, parts of the Surveillance Station app do not work, particulary the Live View & Time Line.
From the logs, I suspect an authorisation problem (because of the 401), but I'm not sure. I have tried ProxyPreserveHost on, ProxyVia full, and some rewrite rules, but I'm not sure what I'm doing Direct access to the port of the app works (i.e. 83.xxx.x.xxx:9900), so i know it has something to do with the reverse proxy.
a snippet of my httpd-vhost.conf-user:

View 1 Replies View RelatedServer Wide Custom Error Pages W/ Whm/cpanel
Aug 13, 2008i have a server with whm/cpanel and would love to have custom error pages that work server wide not just for a specific domain. I have tried adding the "ErrorDocument 404 errors/404.htm" to the httpd.conf file but it doesn't work.
I have no trouble getting custom errors to work for a specific domain but can't seem to get it to work server wide.
Has anyone else tried to tackle this and actually had success?
First Rackmount Build
Nov 12, 2008I am trying to put together a 1U server, and this is the first time I've had to deal with the space constraints of a rackmount server.
I am toying with a RAID 10 setup, which requires 4 drives, so I am looking at 2.5" enterprise drives so that I can fit 4 into a 1U rack. The problem is I was on newegg and don't see any cases with 2.5" bays. Are there kits that convert 3.5" bays to 2x2.5" or something of this nature? Furthermore, I see here:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822136260
that the 2.5" drive is inside a 3.5" brick. Can this be taken out of the mount? I don't see the point in paying extra for a 2.5" drive that only fits in a 3.5" slot.
I have read that in a 4-drive array, RAID 10 outperforms RAID 5. This seems counterintuitive to me because in RAID 5 there is essentially striping across 3 drives, and then parity on the 4th, whereas in 10, you would only have striping across 2 drives. Is this just because of the calculations involved in generating the parity?
Colocation Build
Jul 24, 2009I have been trying to get it to work for 3 days now, and just not having any luck at all. When I plug it in, the PSU fan comes on, and the green light on the motherboard flashes on and off. I have made sure all the connections on it are correct (to the best of my knowledge anyways, the manuals are ****) and it will not boot up.
This leads me to believe that either something is dead, or that the RAM is incorrect. All the parts I have were suggested by cwl@apaqdigital, so I assume they all will work together, but I need some help fast. Todays the last day I can RMA them to newegg.
Heres the build -
2x Nehalem E5520 - [url]
Supermicro 1U Chassis - [url]
Supermicro Mobo - [url]
2x Kingston 6GBx3 - [url]
3x 320GB WD HDDs -[url]
this RAM isnt going to work. It was suggested, but after spending 3 days looking, thats all I can think of. It looks like this mobo only supports ECC Registered or ECC Unbuffered.
Php Build As Cgi With Exec
Apr 16, 2009I have build PHP as CGI but now the function exec says with every command like uptime this error: [Thu Apr 16 10:28:37 2009] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] sh: uptime: command not found
This also happens when I do the command convert (yes Imagemagick is installed). Strange enough when I login with the permissions of the exame user I can do the commands through SSH without any problem.
I use DirectAdmin with custombuild. How can I resolve this? Am I required to build PHP to CLI to use the exec command?
