What is the technical obligation to have a dedicated IP address for SSL?
Can a different SSL certificate not just be setup for each vhost individually? The certs are based on hostname, right?
what's stopping me from using one IP per server as opposed to one IP per website for active services/projects.
We host for a company that has its email on another server. Everything works fine with the DNS changes already made.
However, Outlook has an autodiscover feature that requires an additional DNS entry and I am at a loss as to what record type to use.
They had it set up on their old host as:
autodiscover.lif?.com to point to "autodiscoverredirect003.in?.net"
Does anyone know which record type to use for this?
I'm used to CPanel in which I can access phpMyAdmin without getting prompted for an additional login. With DirectAdmin, when I access phpMyAdmin I get a popup asking me for username/password. Is this standard behavior, or something with my DirectAdmin config? I prefer not having to type in an additional login to access phpMyAdmin.

I am currently installing lxadmin in my webserver, but during the intallation i received a alert message from my "settroubleshootebrowser" saying:
SummarySELinux is preventing /usr/local/lxlabs/ext/php/php from loading /usr/local/lxlabs/ext/php/lib/mysql.so which requires text relocation.
Allowing AccessIf you trust:
/usr/local/lxlabs/ext/php/lib/mysql.so to run correctly, you can change the file context to textrel_shlib_t. "chcon -t textrel_shlib_t /usr/local/lxlabs/ext/php/lib/mysql.so"The following command will allow this access:chcon -t textrel_shlib_t /usr/local/lxlabs/ext/php/lib/mysql.so
This message was for thwe SQL and Zend optimizer.
My Question is, where do i find the "chcon -t textrel_shlib_t" file allow access?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhy this error might have started to appear? I am fairly new to apache and was trying to harden it up.
I am use CentOS:
Server version: Apache/2.2.25 (Unix)
Server built: Oct 7 2013 17:21:18
Cpanel::Easy::Apache v3.22.14 rev9999
I was trying to add a group to control access to specific groups to enforce some security:
chown -R root:root /usr/local/apache/bin
chmod -R 770 /usr/local/apache/bin
chown -R root:root /usr/local/apache/conf
chmod -R 770 /usr/local/apache/conf
groupadd apacheadmin
groupadd apache
useradd -d /usr/local/apache/htdocs -g apache -s /bin/false apache
I think this is a permission issue.
If you rename a domain, fail2ban will stop working, since it still tries to open the old path the the web access log.
One workaround is to restart the server after renaming the domain, then fail2ban paths are updated.
I'm using plesk 12.0.18.
Some information about my forum:
I run a VBulletin forum with - 575,614 post, 14,369 members and 2.9 million page views per month. On average there are 300 - 400 people on the site.
The server right now is a Linux CentOS VPS with 1.1 gigs of memory. The hosting provider keeps telling me that I need a dedicated server.
Question # 1 - In your opinion - do you think its time for a dedicated server?
The server I am looking at has these stats:
E8300
2 GB RAM
250GB HD
cPanel
Management
The price I was given is pretty good. So the offer is going to be hard to pass up.
Question # 2 - Has anyone here used Future Hosting for their dedicated server solution?
I have an account that is going from a shared hosting account to a dedicated with theplanet and I want to transfer it. Concerns I have is that the site is using an SSL. What things do I need to watch out for when transferring. Since I don't have root access I will have to do this transfer with the account function, correct?
This site has a database and SSL, so I thought it would hopefully be easier to use the cpanel account migration tool
What is the difference between Dedicated Virtual vs Regular Dedicated Server?
Also what are the pros and cons of going with Virtual?
to move from shared windows hosting to Dedicated windows hosting. This will be our first dedicated server and experience with dealing it too.
Someone suggested me Rackspace. But they were charging premium rates 440 USD for entry level windows server.
I use shared web hosting service to get my website online. I'm wondering how many people use dedicated servers or virtual private servers instead and pay from $20 to several hundreds of dollars? Will I face any big problem with shared web hosting package which makes me choose dedicated servers?
View 14 Replies View Relatedi would just want to get your inputs if which server performs faster or better:
VPS running in Core2Quad @ 2.40GHz with 12 gb of ram
guaranteed 1.7 Ghz CPU
guaranteed 1 GB memory burstable to 2 GB
170 GB disk
or
Dedicated server
Celeron 1.7 GHz
1 GB memory
160 GB disk
What would you classify this as? Seems like it's the in-between for VPS and dedicated with completely reserved resources and much higher storage capacities than VPS can offer.
Personally, if it runs a hypervisor or container is a VPS but this sure does blur the lines a bit.
I am currently using a shared hosting but due to increasing traffic and server load my existing host is not able to provide reliable services and I am planning to upgrade my hosting service.
While I was searching for Dedicated Servers, I learnt about Virtual Dedicated Servers but I am not very sure about their reliability? Are Virtual Dedicated Servers useful? My website current serves over 2500-3000 visitors a day resulting in 30,000 pageviews and I am expecting the traffic to grow by atleast 2 folds in the next few months as I start some PPC campaigns and Email Marketing for my website. Can a Virtual Dedicated Server cater such needs assuming my website to be more of less dynamic website written in php?
VPS or Dedicated from SDX
I'm running a Joomla site with about 15,000 page views/day on JaguarPC at present. Its a mainly passive content - no message boards or applications. They disabled my site stating that CPU/Database use is too much. Should I move to a VPS or Dedicated server now ? Budget range $50-75/month.
I am tossing around the idea of moving from my dedicated server to a VPS server. This is due to my ever growing server needs.
Currently, I use a small percent of a $400 softlayer server, about 500gig disk space and 2tb bandwidth. Is this too big for a VPS? Is there anything special I need to take into consideration for the move?
I was also wondering if other VPS's on the same server would slow down mine or if I would just allocated a % witch would be reserved for me.
I know what is a dedicated server and a VPS well everyone knows that but what is a VDS is that the same and a VPS
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a master reseller account with a host and i ordered a dedicated IP address so i can install a SSL certificate, I have not done this before so just wanted some info.
Its been over 24 hours from when my host transfered my IP to my account and my website keeps showing some other website o my laptop and if i check it on 1 of my other computers it shows the WHM & cPanel success page...
i know i have to leave it to set the new DNS etc but should it be showing another website? and how long does it take to set the new IP fully as my email and website is all offline
Why it so expensive?
View 14 Replies View RelatedSelf-explanatory title, I think.
Besides that, do you recommend dedicated ip to be bought along with host?
I'm just wondering what the prices are for lower end dedicated servers and how many websites you can fit on them?
(lets say each website is a small 5 to 10 page website with 200 meg space usage and 1 to 2 gig transfer per month)
I'm currently using reseller but once my client base is built rather than buy 5 or 6 reseller plans, I thought it'd be logic to simple upgrade to a dedi.
I know VPS are used for name servers and whatnot, how do they compare with low-end dedicated servers?
I'm in the middle of deciding on the hosting I'll use for a site I plan to launch in a month or so. The site is a web app built on Drupal (mysql 5 / php5). It is somewhat resource intensive, as thousands of rss and csv files are updated almost constantly. My last site I hosted across two VPS's, one for the DB and one for everything else. My main concern is scalability - being able to handle whatever is needed.
So I'm looking for some advice on what to do, trying to get the most power, and best scaling options - while trying to keep costs down. I can get a fairly powerful dedicated, fully managed, from liquidweb for around 230/mth. At that price, I thought maybe it would be better to have two VPS's. My experience in this area is limited so instead of running my mouth perhaps I'll let someone else suggest something..
I have a website with forum that has been doing pretty well. I'm presently using a shared hosting account and am considering moving up to a VPS because of anticipated future growth and the terrible service I have gotten from my hosting provider.
I have a graduate degree in IT but don't work in this field professionally. Because of this, I'm very good at coding in php, html, javascript, etc. but very terrible when it comes to network administration and my knowledge of unix and linux. But I know I can eventually learn. Because of this I already know I will go with a managed plan if I go VPS.
To be honest with you, after studying many posts on this site for the past few days, I was convinced I would go with a VPS account with either Knownhost or Wiretree since they have managed VPS. However, I have seen one post in the VPS Forum here where one person said his site, which included a forum, was on a dedicated server and at times with 100 users logged into his forum at one time his server could barely keep up.
I am presently getting about 2.5 million hits per month (80,000 hits per day) with about 22,000 page views per day. However, I only have about 500 members in my forum and on average only about 30 logged in at any given time. I get about 5000 unique IPs coming to my website each month. My bandwidth usage is less than 20 GB per month. To me it doesn't really seem that I need a dedicated server but my site is growing steadily.
So it made me question my decision about moving to a VPS plan. Maybe I need to consider a dedicated plan?
I have a dedicated server running all my services, including Plesk (WWW, FTP, DNS, etc), E-mail (SMTP, POP, Antispam, webmail) and database (MySQL and SQL Server).
I´m thinking to break this dedicated Server in 4 VPS (** Windows VPS, powered by Microsoft Virtual Server **) to do a better load balance (where a service don’t affect performance of another), increase services uptime (since each of them will be isolated) and increase scalability (since I will be able to move each VPS to Virtual Dedicated Servers when needed - like PowerVPS's PowerXMS plans).
This is what I´m thinking to do:
- 1 VPS for Plesk (WWW, FTP, DNS, etc),
- 1 VPS for isolated web applications (WWW and FTP - no control panel)
- 1 VPS for E-mail (SMTP, POP, IMAP, Antispam and webmail)
- 1 VPS for database (MySQL and SQL Server)
I have some questions about it:
1) Do you think that breaking a dedicated server in some VPS is a good thing? The benefits that I mentioned above are correct (better load balance, increase services uptime, increase scalability)?
2) Do you know what software licenses must I lease to have the Plesk core in a server and the e-mail services on another server? Looking at SWSoft website I found some info about Plesk Expand, but it focused to expand the core of Plesk, having multiple Plesk instances hosting all services in all servers and it require a Linux SO, which I don’t want to have and admin. Do you know how can I separate the Plesk core from the e-mail services in 2 separated servers without having to lease a Linux VPS just to run Plesk Expand?
3) Do you if data traffic between VPSs are metered? (this change from a provider to another?)
4) Do you know if a Virtual Dedicated Server (1 dedicated server running 1 VPS) has significant loss of resources other whena comparaed to a dedicated server?
How can I determine that my IP is not shared? I bought dedicated IPs and not sure whether reseller provided me dedicated or shared.
View 4 Replies View Relatedto have a dedicated IP hosting plan if you plan on creating a Joomla + VirtueMart e-commerce website with less than 100 products to sell?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI was considering starting up a website with lots of information and I was wondering, should I get a dedicated IP? Its an extra $2.99 a month. It's not a lot of money, but is it WORTH it? I was thinking of using the godaddy hosting plan (economy one) for $3.99 a month (also cheap).
So can anyone tell me if its really that important to get? And yes, I'll upgrade the other hosting options as the site grows.
