I have a server from ServerBeach Linux Powerline 2600. CentOS5.
It even has webmin on it.
But this is what I'm trying to do, trying to add a user so the user can use apache/php/mysql/cron and cannot look into other directories like /etc
SB is taking sometime, so I thought to post here as well.
I know it's a linux admin thing, but I'd like to get some quick help as well..
how do i backup mysql user privileges?
this will only backup the databases:
mysqldump --opt -u root -p --all-databases > data.sql
i would like to backup mysql user privileges too.
I'd want to create a user and set custom privileges using the standard mysql-client, ie. create user and grant privileges, but I know that sometimes Plesk overwrites my config files for other services.

the site is using gallery with about 3,000 pictures from local car shows
the monthly visits is under 80
"email stuff"
one important thing is eye candy
which one has a better email gui because i am willing to pay up to $100.00 per month for a flashy email gui
currently hosted with gate.com and they suck and my friends showed me 2 programs called zimbra & smartermail which look so cool and they told me you need a server or vps
and if you are wondering i am a college kid so that's why this post sounds so stupid but it's real
About two weeks ago serverbeach null routed one of our servers for over 48 hours with no proof of an attack what so ever. We would randomly see it back online for 5 minutes at a time and the server was perfectly fine. No lag, no attacks, no nothing then boom nullrouted again.
They claimed the traffic the server was receiving was too much for the 10mbit port we were paying for (after we waited 48 hours to receive a useful response) so we were forced to upgrade to a 100mbit port. No big deal, they upgrade us to 100mbit and 10 minutes later the server is online without any issues what so ever. Today we find out the server has been nullrouted once again and we have not had a response from them in hours.
Not to mention when we called support the first time we heard a party in the background and it was impossible to talk due to all of the loud noise and yelling. We were promised an update within 30 minutes, never heard back.
i ordered a server today from serverbeach,
I have changed my nameservers at the domain registrar but when using the serverbeach DNS tool to use the serverbeach DNS service , its asks me for the IP of my domainname.
How do I find in webmin the IP address of the domain to be entered
I've heard people talk about it being important to pick the right datacenter if you go with serverbeach. Other than the two power outages in the VA one, what are the differences? Do they all use pure Peer1 bandwidth?

View 0 Replies View RelatedI have always wanted to be a customer of ServerBeach since I found out that they hosted YouTube and so on. I have found their prices to be kind of high compared to all the others until they started offering their "Twitter" deals, and that is how a price I could not turn down came into my life.
Well, I ordered a server through Server Beach 7/12/2009 and have been rocking it out at 100% uptime since they set it up for use on 7/14/2009. When I first placed my order I had to send in a photo ID and such to verify it was me ordering the server, which I found to be kind of reassuring knowing that the datacenter took fraud that serious. It might have just been me though!
Server Specs
AMD Opteron 1218
2 GB DDR2 Memory (up to 667MHz)
2 x 500 GB 7200 RPM SATA II , RAID 1
Unlimited (10mbps) bandwidth (AKA 3300ish GIGs?)
Herndon, Virginia
So far, I have had NO network problems! My server is located in their Virgina datacenter outside of Washington DC. Which is a blessing coming from a former FDC Servers user. They have a super fast network, websites load fast.
I have had to contact support a few times, and they were knowledgeable and extremely helpful. One thing I love about ServerBeach support, is that they treat all questions as a true problem, even if it's just a question that has nothing to do with the server being down or anything like that. Support also answers tickets amazingly fast by the way!
I love the fact that I have a set account manager. I love being able to call a single person if I need something outside the realm of support needs.
All in all, these first 30 days have been spectacular, and I look to spending a long time with ServerBeach.
Side Note!
My Previous Providers have included FDC Servers and The Planet.
Currently hosted with hostway but i am thinking of moving
i want a windows server for sure either 03 or 08
and i don't need managed really
i was looking at 1&1
because they have a windows vps for only 29.00 a month
but i seen liquid web's offering in the offer section
and i have noticed they have not changed their offers in months are there any new offers and is liquidweb good
and serverbeach a friend told me about but i am wondering should i get a full server and they charge 20.00 more for windows
i run a blog about gun rights & nra stuff and i get about 100 visitors a month
also please don't recommend shared hosting because i don't want to check my site one day to see the word suspened so either vps or dedi
and this may sound stupid but can you use a windows server like a computer like play movies and music and stuff using remote asst?
I've only had a server with them for a week and - being the guru that I am - managed to lock myself completely out of windows by mistake, no safe mode remedy or anything possible. I needed a fresh OS install but on top of that I needed access to my old data. It took them all of 6 minutes to notify me that my request was in the works. In under 2 hours I had a fresh C drive with a new OS and my old drive in there for me to copy data from.
I was fully expecting a slow, condescending response and a bill for the service (I asked to be charged but they refused and said that OS reloads are always free despite having to do more than a simple OS reload for me)... What I got was near immediate response from a polite and fully competent staff that did exactly what I wanted. Thanks ServerBeach!
I'll review their uptime after I've been with them for good chunk of time. I'm at Virginia and I read about two power outages they had before, but having dealt with their staff there I'm confident that these guys have that completely under control now.
I have a site that uses extreme amounts of bandwidth, I checked some of the popular companies like serverbeach and softlayer. Right now I'm leaning more towards serverbeach because they are cheaper, Are they a good company to go with? Let me know if you have any other recommendations.

In fact, from cPanel interface all privileges are added OK, but the MySQL itself is not connecting at all due to this error.
I already tried:
/scripts/mysqlup --force
/scripts/upcp --force
/usr/bin/mysql_fix_privilege_tables -u root --password=PASSWORD
I'm trying to set permission for text file which is exists in Program Files (x86)MyFile directory. File should be accessible by psaadm and not accessible for psacln accounts. I've set permissions for psaadm Full Control Allow and for psacln Full Control Deny.
In my PHP script I'm checking file using is_readable function and no matter which user trying to read this file function always returns true (admin or customer account). I tried to find solution in Web but without success so I'd like to ask you about it.
Additionally, I've tried to create Plesk DiskSecurity XML with privileges settings. After Apply this settings privileges are correctly set for my file, but customers still can read this file.
Is there any other way to deny access to this file for customers and resellers?
I have a software program on my home PC that writes to files on my remote VPS every few minutes.
The only way I can accomplish this is to CHMOD the files to 777 and give the whole world write priveledges.
Is there a way I can give my external (home) IP address write priveledges to certain files on my VPS without CHMODing them as 777?
I run the latest version of cPanel and WHM on my VPS.
I need a MySQL user that has the privileges to add routines and triggers. The default users that are created by Plesk do not have these rights. How would I be able to add these rights to a specific user, or all users, that doesn't care.
I already logged in over SSH as a root user:
Code:
mysql -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow`
Then I tried to update the rights of the users:
Code:
mysql >UPDATE db SET Create_view_priv = 'Y', Show_view_priv = 'Y', Create_routine_priv = 'Y', Alter_routine_priv = 'Y';
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
This didn't work. So I wanted to add super privileges by doing this:
Code:
mysql> GRANT SUPER ON *.* TO 'user'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'mypassword';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
But also not of any effect. What's left to do?
I recently upgraded the Plesk to 11.5.30. Now I am not able to create new MySQL databases. I am getting below error.
Code:
Error: Connection to the database server has failed because the supplied account does not possess administrative privileges: Access denied for user 'admin'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
MySQL admin details are correct in plesk database, also the admin has full privileges. I am manually able to create databases, users from mysql prompt. It's just the plesk interface that's giving error.
Code:
C:Program Files (x86)ParallelsPleskMySQLbin>mysql -u admin -p*************** mysql

I thought I knew enough about my .htaccess stuff to do this, but I can't seem to work it out. What I want to do is if a user visits domain.com/folder, we check to see if the folder exists. If so, show as normal (IE domain.com/support)
If a user visits domain.com/dynamicusername (dynamicusername is not a physical folder), redirect to dynamicusername.domain.com
when I find the subscription from the admin side of PPA, if I select "Login as user" I've noticed that it is different from actually logging in as the user - for example - "add domain alias" is missing when I login as a customer - but not as an admin... I need my customers to add their own aliases and manage them - how do I add that feature to the client login side?

and I can't know who are runing in my server
which user should i use when you doing work on the server? I've been login as root when i need to do work on the server (i know this is really bad.)
Should i create another user to ssh in and when i need to do crital stuff i will use su ?
What groupid should i set this user to?
I am currently looking for a new IP KVM. Right now I use a mix of HP and Raritan KVMs and I'm honestly not super happy with either of them. The main feature I'm looking for is the ability to setup multiple users and only allow them to access certain ports/devices on the KVM.
What would be the best IP KVM to look at for this?
I basically have a script that uses passthru when people login with FTP so it can connect users from multiple interfaces.
Thing is, it uses the default php.ini file so, to get this script to work I have to enable passthru in the default php.ini file, affecting all users with an account. I am currently running SuExec and can change the php.ini file each user uses from httpd.conf. But as far as I am aware the FTP user isn't in httpd.conf.
What user does FTP run under and how can I use a custom php.ini file just for the FTP daemon. Also, as a side note, what are the effects of passthru and can it be used for malicious intent if wanted?
Is it possible to create user aliases on linux?
I have webmin and virtualmin running on my server, but it's set up to create usernames in the form name@domain.tld.
Is it possible to create an alias, say myname that points to myname@mydomain.tld, so that I am able to have certain users to login via SSH using a shorter name?
i want to create a vps for tunnel ip for some user that use socks proxy.
how can i do it ?
our os is Centos
