Recommended VPS Hosting
Jun 21, 2008I am currently with Lunarpages. Up until a few months ago I was on a regular plan (not VPS). Their service and uptime was great. But they moved me to a VPS due to the traffic which I completely understand. However, since I have been moved to their VPS servers the downtime has been horrible. And by horrible I mean horrible! So I am on the hunt for a new web hosting company.
I really do not know what I need, I believe I do need VPS hosting though. The bad news is that I know nothing about VPS hosting. Lunarpages has me on Plesk now and I could not be more lost with it.
My main dilemma is that I have a php forum that generates a good amount of traffic. I am getting about 40,000 page views per day on the forum and about 6,000 page views per day on the main website portion.
I am scared to death to move the forum. I fear I will need a tech friendly host to help me set the forum back up. Once I am back up and running I never need any help. I just want to get to that point again.
But I have questions, like what the heck is "Guaranteed RAM"? Is that important to me? Could this be part of the reason that now that LP has moved me to their VPS servers that I can no longer just simply download my large database for the forum through phpMyAdmin? It just craps out and LP told me something like VPS servers didn't have enough memory (or was it RAM?) to preform the task?
So far I am hating my VPS experience. I just want to be up and running smooth again without fearing the downtime.
I think LP's hosting for the VPS is around $45.00 per month or so/ I would like to be lower if possible, but I do not want to get a new host with the same downtime issues.

Proxy Hosting - Ram

Jun 8, 2007I 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

Optimizing Server For Proxy Hosting
Mar 21, 2007i 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
here is the top output
Quote:
[root@server ~]# top
top - 12:46:18 up 23 days, 2:36, 1 user, load average: 0.36, 0.44, 0.29

and the number of connections on port 80
Quote:
[root@server ~]# netstat -an |grep :80 |wc -l
216
[root@server ~]#
is there any way to tweak or optimize the server so than it can cope better when a lot of people are using the proxy.
Any Recommended VPS?
Nov 16, 2008I am using epicvps right now. But it has been baught by vaserv days before. Where it came a lot server downtime and server problems. My storage will automaticly decrease. I send tickets to them many times, they just respond me that the nod that where i host have too much vps on it. They tell me that they will move my account to new nod. But it still happen again today!
My budget is something around $50 per month, can anyone recommend some reliable company?
NOT Recommended: Senderbase
Apr 25, 2009Twice in two years now, as a very responsible host with ZERO tolerance to spam (incoming or outgoing!), I have been hampered by the efforts of the anti-spam "reputation service" offered by [url]
We host something like 2000 websites across a cluster of servers, and while we do everything possible to prevent spam, it's inevitable there will be the occasional outbreak.
A couple of days back, sure enough, one of our hosted sites was compromised. As far as I could tell, the culprit was too simple a password. There were no signs of compromised scripts, permissions, anything. Just a spam script uploaded via FTP from a foreign IP address. We do have limits on password strength now, but may not have when this account was set up.
Anyhow, within 120 minutes or so, we had removed the spam script, blocked the offending IP, secured the site and delisted our IP from the ONE RBL it appeared on - Spamcop.
You would think that would be the end of the story, right? Wrong.
Here we are, over two days later, NO listings on any RBLs, NO further spam from ANY of our servers. What Senderbase reputation do you think that server has? Poor.
This is an IP that as far as I know has NEVER had a spam issue, other than the single outbreak two days ago.
The net result of this "Poor" listing is that we have now had outgoing email sitting in our mail queue for 50+ hours because the recipient mail systems are STILL blocking us based on our "Poor" reputation.
Furthermore, I quote directly from the Senderbase site: "Why is the reputation Poor? This host is sending spam!". That one really tipped me over the edge.
As I say, this is at least the second time two years running that this has happened to us. Single spam problem; Cleaned up quickly and efficiently; Wait on Senderbase for days.
It is hard enough dealing with spammers and problems like this, without having to fight the "good guys" too. All I can say is that I will personally NEVER use, nor recommend, the services of Senderbase or Ironport.
Apache 2 With PHP 5.2.x Recommended
Oct 14, 2007I bought a new Forum Script but I cannot install it on my GoDaddy web hosting because my script has two Requirements for installing, listed below:
1- Web server with PHP 5-support
2- Apache 2 with PHP 5.2.x-module recommended
My question is, if you know any web hosting that support those two things?
Recommended Firewall
Aug 25, 2007I'm in the process of looking at a new firewall... What we need in a firewall:
- Deep packet inspection
- BGP Routing (just for active/passive uplink failover)
- support for up to 150 Mbps+
- Gbit uplinks
- Active/Active setup for firewalls
- Budget around 3k Each firewall
Possible choices:
- Juniper Netscreen 140 SSG
- SonicWALL® PRO 4060
So far I'm really leaning towards the Juniper NetScreen 140 SSG.
My network consultant started to recommend SonicWall but from previous reviews here and else where kinda turned me off them.
Recommended File System
Aug 2, 2009I have a dedicated server running Linux CentsOS.
The default setup of my file system is:
/dev/sda1 450GB
tmpfs 2GB
/usr/tmpDSK 485 MB
My Disk size is 500GB
Recommended Colo Providers
Apr 8, 2008I have the following cpu:
Dell PowerEdge R300 1U Server
1 x QuadCore Intel Xeon X5460 3.16 GHz Processor
8GB RAM ( 4x2 GB DIMMs )
2 x 500 GB SATA II Drives
OS: CentOS 5 64bit
I would like to run this as a virtualization instance for my clients ( 3-4 max. on this box depending on their needs ). I need a provider that can get me the following:
3-4 TB of bandwidth depending on need ( 100 Mbps preferred )
Windows Server OS's / licenses to install as needed
cPanel licenses to install as needed
Which providers can meet these requirements? Which do you recommend for value, support, and network?
Review Of VPSit.com – Not Recommended
Sep 13, 2008This is a long review, but I think it has to be so long.
I’m using DNS Made Easy and on the left side of the main menu I saw a ad for [url]. It’s the same company that owns DNS Made Easy that owns VPSit.com
I did sign up for a Windows VPS with 25 GB of storage, 384 MB of RAM, 700 GB of DDoS protected bandwidth and Plesk 30 domains. The price was little high, but not a big problem: $38.95/mo
At first I was amazed about the speed of their VPS setup. It was instant, and I got my VPS up and running within 5 minutes from I made the payment.
The speed of the VPS was also VERY fast. When I looked at what hardware I got on my VPS I saw that they “only” used a Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 @ 3.0 Ghz CPU.
But that was OK since the VPS was lightning fast.
I uploaded my websites (a live backup of my main VPS) and did not take any more action, since the VPS is only used when my main VPS is down.
Before I tell you about the main problem I have to say that VPSit.com do not offer any option for managed/unmanaged VPS plans. And since they have no option for managed plan, or no information about their VPS's are unmanaged I assumed that the VPS was managed. They also write this on their info page: ....
Recommended Server Processor
Sep 9, 2008The the provider we're considering is offering a range of processors at different price points including:
single Xeon 5110 (dual core) with 2GB memory,
single Xeon X3220 (quad) 2GB,
dual Intel Xeon 5100 with 2GB,
dual Xenon 5310 (quads) with 4GB.
Is A Virtuozzo Backup Recommended
Dec 11, 2007I've been taking regular backups (through Plesk to an FTP Repository) of a domain which I exclusively host on my VPS.
Is this enough or is it advisable to take Backup from Virtuozzo as well?
Recommended 1U Server Chassis
Feb 14, 2007Can anyone recommend a good 1U server chassis that is $100 or under?
Preferrably one already with a good/reliable power supply in it. Just something that will handle PentiumD or Athlon AM2 stuff & 2 hard drives.
Recommended Xeon Motherboard
Mar 20, 2007new xeon motherboard after having nothing but constant problems with the supermicro boards. Specifically we've had many arrive with faulty dimm's but beyond that getting Windows 2003 loaded, dealing with drivers for SCSI raid configurations is simply a bear. Supermicro's support isn't much help either with answers like "well that's the driver, it should work."
Just trying to get some feedback on what others are using. Looking for something that has both SATA and SCSI support with and without RAID 0,1,5 and 10 and has better than average Windows 2003 support.
We're not interested in any of the options from Dell, HP, etc.

View 2 Replies View RelatedVPS Advantages Over Shared & Recommended Hosts
Sep 5, 2008Is it possible to get a rough description of the benefits of a VPS host over a shared host?
1) Support. Should support with a VPS host be better than my current shared provider? They offer live chat and a ticketing system. Tickets can take hours to get a response, live chat minutes but often there are no support operaters to answer the question.
2) Uptime. Will uptime be improved upon? My current host tends to range from 97%-99% in a month. Importantly will it suffer from soft outages where parts of the account are down (such as MySQL or http)?
3) Traffic. What levels of traffic will base VPS packages handle? Will a few semi active forums (say max 20 users on 3 forums) be manageable alongside several PHP/MySQL galleries and several hundred normal PHP pages?
4) Load. Does the load usage of other customers on the same server effect your account in the same way it does in a shared environment? Can one user bog down the entire server for everyone else?
5) Management. How much control is given to a user in managed VPS environment. Can you restart OS yourself (and do things like edit the firewall blocks)? Do you have to keep the OS (Linux in my case) and things like Apache and PHP up to date yourself or is that done for you.
6) Usage Policies. Are the usage policies in place in a VPS environment (limiting the amount of CPU process and memory you can use). If yes are they higher than in a shared environment.
Is it possible to get a little more on a few of the hosts I've looked at (if possible I'd like to be below the $50 a month mark).
JaguarPC ($20 / $40)
WiredTree ($50)
LiquidHost ($60)
Is it a case of picking any of these and getting a similar support and hosting service?
WiredTree seems to offer a decent compromise of price against value. Given that my site is still pretty small at the moment, would the smallest JaguarPC package be a better fit (so I'm not spending money for specs I'm not using).
Unfortunately disk space is a fairly big factor as the site uses quite a few image and small video files (I'm using something like 2GB at the moment but this would increase fairly rapidly over time). Does that mean a shared host is better suited for my needs?

View 0 Replies View RelatedWhy Is A Seperate Server For Mysql Recommended
Jan 4, 2007a good deal of the price in buying servers frequently comes from a nice motherboard, chassis, etc. having to purchase those items twice is just taking away from other components you could be adding to one server-- more ram, more/faster cpu's, etc. not to mention the wasted overhead in just running the operating system twice.
considering all of those factors, wouldn't it be logical to build a nicer single server rather than two "okay" servers?
the only real advantages I see are
1) potentially httpd could be reachable when mysql isn't... but for something like vb, that's almost a moot point
2) at some point you're going to hit a point where buying a nicer CPU isn't really worth the money; spending twice the money for a 10% performance increase, etc. but it seems like multiple cpu's could still get around that.
