Is it possible to install tor on a server, and serve up websites using the Tor connectivity/proxy IP (not the server's real IP)?
If yes, what's the procedure for setting this up?
And should all nameservers continue to resolve to the server's "real" IP(s) or...?
We have a VPS with Media Temple. Their data center is somewhere on the westcoast. From time to time we have severe issues to connect from our Brooklyn/NY locations. We experienced the connectivity issue from 2 physical locations. Doing a tracert gave us a good result.
There are usually 4-8 users using our shop admin for order processing or the shopping cart for manual order entry. While they are having problems connecting from there, I can connect just fine from Calgary/AB, Canada. Most of the time no issues at all.
how to debug that?
I ordered yesterday, and got it today! But I have the box, 100 MB unmetered line, I downloaded utorrent, donloaded a file at 10 MB/per sec, but For some reason the box wont seed, and the tiny little yellow banner on the bottom says there are no incoming connections (this is usually green if your port is open) It wont seed... the DL is great, is there a box setting that is blocking this? there is no installed firewall, and the ports are all open....
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got a housed server within my customer's datacenter. I consider application runs ok, but it goes very slow.
I consider it's due to their connection (DSL) and installed another provisional server with a simple "Hello World" and no traffic. I'm to install the same server within another datacenter, and would like to find an external tool to certify connectivity times.
Do you know any of these tools? I'm not searching tools like 'Apache AB' or 'HP httperf', but public online services.
There are several methods of offering network path redundancy. The basic decision for me has come down to:
Do it at Layer 2
Do it at Layer 3
At the moment we have layer 2 redundancy to each server. 2NICs on the server up with one having the IPs for apache/mysql/etc. each nic going into a seperate switch and the switches connected together, with 2 routers running VRRP to handle the gateway.
Everything is Vlaned.
So basicaly the switch redundancy is done by spanning tree and the IP redundancy is done with a process on the router/server to move the IP to the other router/server NIC if there is an issue.
I am thinking about going with 2 fully seperate networks. in differant subnets. where each router would have a gateway. the routers would talk to each other and they would speak OSPF or ISIS with the servers. This way I would move hosting onto loopback IPs on the servers and those loopback IPs would be advertised to the both routers through seperate networks.
Again everything would be Vlanned.
This has the advantage of getting rid of spanning tree which has caused issues from time to time. It would keep redundancy up and we could standardize on the routing daemon ran on the servers allowing all of the various OSs we run to have the same basic config for network redundancy. Where now each OS tends to have its own solution. This would make life easier from a config and troubleshooting point of view.
im trying to remotely install WS2003 EE R2 on a dedicated server I have purchased and have an issue. I'm installing it via KVM IP which is cool
however, after installing the network card drivers, I get a "There is no or limited connectivity" etc... so I cannot access the internet or anything on that box.
what do I do from here? how can I make the card work? It is configured to obtain the IP Address automatically as well as using the default DNS. I do have 2 IP Addresses "assigned" to me/my account but dont believe I need to configure them in WS2003?
Is it better to have a rack in a carrier neutral datacenter and get feeds to the rack from various diverse carriers.
Or
Is it better to have a rack in an ISP datacenter where they provide the connectivity for you?
is anyone else having trouble with burst.net at the moment? from two locations, i'm having problems where anything that will elicit a large response just hangs indefinitely. i can ping my server just fine, i can shell into it... if i do "top" or "dmesg" or anything else that might dump back more than a few lines of response at a time, the ssh session hangs. i can do "ps x" as a regular user, because i only have two processes running. "ps ax" will hang ssh.
none of my websites work, and i can't get on the burst.net website from either location. i tried calling but no matter what sequence i try for (even tried reboots) i can't get ahold of a live person, but then again it is almost midnight.
anyone else experiencing this?
I have tested so many compagny I can't even remember and with all of thoses compagny my customers had lagg pikes or this kind of things.
I am hosting a gameserver service which required a top connectivity , most of my customers are in europe and I looked for the best dedicated provider in europe.
I tested OVH , ngz-server , bestserver.eu and much more but it was the same problem.
If someone know a good dedicated server provider in europe using premium bandwidth with good carier and not only with peerings .
I have looked a bit at serverboost.nl they seems serious but I have no feedback about them.
If you have any provider with a top connectivity it would help me a lot to choose what deserve my customers.
A DDos protection is a must also (not for bigg ddos but littles one ).
Anyone worked with legitimate bandwidth brokers?
someone that can provide pricing for multiple providers (Level3, Global Crossing, and Cogent at a minimum) that I know are available in a building we have service in.
for you what country of Europe has the best prices in connectivity?
So far the best thing I have found is in Amsterdam with 10 € / Mbps (100Mbps) or 7€ / Mbps (1Gbps).
Is anyone else having issues with Layered Technologies. For the past 18+ hours they've been 'down' from the Global Crossing network. Does anyone know anyone at Savvis and/or Global Crossing that can check and see what's wrong with their routing?
View 7 Replies View RelatedIs anyone having a problem with Intermedia's Hosted Sharepoint (WSS 3.0) Service? For the past couple days I've had sporadic service. Finally today, None of my pc's can get to my hosted sharepoint site. I even tried my site from 3 other locations, all with different ISP's, networks, and even geographic locations. (2 Corporate spots in OKC, Tulsa, Dallas).
Anyways their tech support says they can log in fine, and it's just a problem with my ISP. (I tried to emphasis the fact that it's 4 different ISP's all having the same issue).
Ping's good, I even get an authentication window. Just when I put in credentials I get The connection was interrupted.
Anyways phone support could only offer to open a ticket for me. Can anyone else using Intermedia Hosted Sharepoint let me know if they too are having problems? I realize Hosted Email is probably working fine.
for a linux VPS package provider that can provide both IPv4 and IPv6 (not tunneled) connectivity. IRC client/bots are not a priority but would be a bonus.

5) Is there an indipendent and unbiased website that reviews and report web hosts ping response times?
I am interested in finding out any experiences people have had in the last year or so with Savvis or Net2EZ.
I'm primarily interested in experience with the IP connectivity they provide, as well as their co-location, reliability, etc.
I have experience with Savvis from quite a while ago, but presumably that experience may no longer apply.
It's likely we will end up buying transit from multiple carriers and deal with BGP, etc.
But I am also interested in hearing about Savvis's Diverse Internet availability product.
As for Net2EZ, I'd be primarily interested in hearing about their colo services and if anyone has had experience connecting to Carriers in the next door Equinix facility.
When you can't access your server via SSH or Remote Desktop, what do you use to fix the problem without filing a ticket?
IPMI?
Serial console?
KVM over IP?
Dial up connection?
Backup network connection?
Get up and walk to the server? :-)
If you had a choice between them, what did you pick and why?
Does your dedicated server provider give it to you for free, or do you have to pay extra for it?
Does anyone know of a private Data Center with Satellite uplink/downlink connectivity in addition to Fiber?
I know the government depends on them for military purposes, but I was wondering if anyone is aware of a private, FCC liscenced data center with the capability to transmite/host data via satellite in case of disasters, remoteness etc. It seems complimentary for a data center but I haven't heard of it.
Is there any market research on this? What is a good source of information to find out about how many data centers there are, how much revenue they bring in, costs, etc? What is the data center bible?
Most people probably run Linux on their media servers, but since I don't know much about Linux and the media server we have is unmanaged, I was wondering how you guys feel about running Windows Server 2003 Std on a media server instead of Linux. We'll only be using the server to host Flash video files (.flv) and we'll be serving those vids on websites hosted on other servers, resulting in approx. 50,000-100,000 media views per day (filesizes range from approx. 5MB to 10MB). We don't want to run Windows Media Services, just a Web server (IIS6) and have the Flash video players on the external websites take care of the streaming/downloading part.

Or, should I run Linux
I would run Linux on it, but I don't know how.
And they have different version of Linux. Example Redhat, Ubuntu etc.
Which one should I go for?
Also, what do I do if I have a netgear ethernet card? Is that Linux? Is it compaitable with Redhat?
And last question, what do I use for security?
I'm a hacker, yeah.. I know what all people can do to websites. How do I stop them?
DoSing, Cross Scripting, XML Attacks, MySql Injection.. Etc.
If a linux fan can respond, that would be nice.
why not just setup my own server. I have the connection and hardware necessary. So I am wondering why do people pay for web hosting? Why not just run your own website from your own server?

In the future I'm thinking of running a web server from my residential house.
I currently have rogers cable , but they do not allow you to run a server from their residential internet connection.
Does anyone run a server from their house? What kind of internet connection do you have?
I'm guessing most people don't do this because they find out it cost way to much to get a special connection ran to their house. Colocation might be the only way to go.
