Setting Up A CDN
May 15, 2008I am wondering if you can either:
1. Point me to an article you can validate as being accurate; or
2. Explain to me as much as you are willing to the following question:
How would someone setup a CDN to compete with companies like level3/softlayer/peer1 etc..? What kind of software is used? Is there special routing issues to address? I do understand you need *at least* 15-20 nodes before you can offer a "true CDN" and I do understand that they need to be in different locations on the POP's. How do you stream files over the CDN as well? Via RTMP?

Setting Up DNS
Aug 1, 2007to add a new domain name to my hosting account, when I put in the nameservers at namecheap, my new domain resolves to the wrong IP address.
When I contacted my host, they told me I need to contact namecheap and give them the IP address and my namservers names.
I have never had to do this before. Usually I just add a new domain in my WHM and everything works. Right now namecheap is using my hosting companies nameservers, when I try to switch to my name servers namecheap comes back with an error.
I added new zones in the WHM for my name servers, but nothing is working.
What do I need to do to get this working? I have one current domain name that is working and one that is not.
Setting Up VPS Box
Apr 3, 2008I have already one dedicated server which I use for shared hosting and for my companys site.
I have read something little about managing VPS and can say that I want to use OpenVZ for that but that's all of my knowledge.
1. Howto setup VPS box (openVZ)?
2. Do I need leave free space/resource for "management" or can I use all space/resource for clients. I have my companys site and stuff in different server (as you can read above).
3. VPS box security? Do I need to worrie about that?
4. If I want to offer multiple OS options for clients, is it possible and how that is done?
5. Is there any "VPS control panel" for clients? For reboot, shutdown, re-install OS and such actions?
6. Do I need more IPs than VEs need (one per VE).

Setting Up IIS For PHP
Apr 24, 2007I've just recieved my copy of Kevin Yanks book "build your own database driven website using php and mysql" and very excitedly installed msql and php last night. As i have IIS i installed that too. Everything so far seems to be going as plan.
But i'm only wanting to use IIS for testing. Since i'm a newbie i'm unsure on some secuity aspects. Is it possible to use IIS for testing only, that is, no possibility of anyone else using it to access my computer?

View 7 Replies View RelatedSetting Up An Environment On My VPS
Nov 3, 2007I initially wanted to set up a VPS because I want to build a web application. The first phase is to set up a development environment, testing environment and production server. For the development environment, I want to set up an SVN server for my code (one reason why I chose a vps instead of a shared server) as well as a bug tracking system. Each environment would be under subdomains, except the production server (development.domain.com, trac.domain.com, testing.domain.com).
My question is what is the best way to utilize my VPS for this type of environment? Should I create a client for each environment? Stick everything under my admin account? I'm sure this is a simple question, but I just want to make my system as organized as possible.
At the minimum, could someone point me in the direction of any resources?
Setting Up IMAP?!
Apr 1, 2008My first post on here! I have just signed up with a VPS, and before I did so, i asked if IMAP was supported, and that was confirmed.
Now, when I try to get it to work, I am told by support that my current mails transport agent (mailEnable) does not support IMAP, and that I should elect not to use mailEnable and configure IMAP with the Microsoft Services.
Now, here I am lost. What do they mean, and how do i proceede Thank you for any input!

Mar 26, 2009I am interested in setting up my own server, more than anything just for the experience. I would like it to be a linux-based server and to be managed purly through the command line [i.e. no GUI].
Can anyone point me towards any goods book/resources for learning this? From what I read I believe that sitepoints own book does not cover any command line stuff, and everything happens purly through the GUI.

Setting WWW Prefix
Jun 15, 2009I have a problem with a couple of the domains on my reseller account.
Although apparently configured the same as other domains I am unable to set the default URL to use the www prefix using .htaccess. When I try I get a redirect loop error.
You can visit one of the problem domains here: [url]
If you stick www in front you will see that it resolves to the non-www version.
Any idea where this is taking place?

PHP Register_globals Setting Is `ON` Instead Of `OFF`
Jan 6, 2008I get the following security warnining in my Joomla installation:
PHP register_globals setting is `ON` instead of `OFF`
From what I have read this is a big security risk and it is something that the host can easily turn off. Why wouldn't my host have this turned off?
I was told by live chat that I could overide with my own php.ini file, but I know nothing about php or php.ini files. I read in a forum that I would have to place this file in EACH directory of my Joomla installation where a php file exists. I don't even want to think about what a pain that is. Also, everytime I add an extension I have to repeat the process? I've also read that this may interefere with several extensions.
Isn't there an easier way to do this?
I read that the host can configure their servers so that you would only have to place the file in one directory or that you would only have to edit the .htaccess file
I just switched to Hostgator and I didn't have this problem with my old host. Should I try to find a new host that has better security?
I really don't know what I'm doing or where to begin with this. I'm probably just misunderstanding something. Can you please help me understand this?
Setting Up The Network
Jan 6, 2008We're a small company that has outgrown dedicated hosting. We've got 8 servers currently with a well known hosting company, but the servers are starting to get old and we're growing. The cost of moving to colo just seem to make sense to us. We have a bunch of developers, but no network engineers. That being said, we're trying to figure out what we best need to move forward with going colo.
Sometime this month, we'll be purchasing 15-18 servers from Dell. We've already spoken to Colo4Dallas and plan to use their services. So we've got the servers and colo, but have no clue what we need with regard to switches, firewalls and remote-reboot.
1: What type of managed Cisco gigabit switch do we need? We don't know the specific model(s) that would be good for us. We want a hot backup and 24 ports. We manage multiple SSL sites (not sure if this is relevent) and 250+ ip addresses.
1a: Where do we manage ip addresses? We know we'll be getting a block of 250 ip addresses, but how do we assign ip address "a" to server "1"? Can we take that ip address and move it to another server if needed?
2: What type of firewall would be best for us, based on above requirements?
3: DRAC cards are pretty expensive, so we want a IP KVM switch. Any recommendations?
4: Remote reboote -- I've seen power strips out there that do this -- is that what we need, or is there another method we should consider?
5: Is there a company available in Dallas that we could hire to help us with these questions, or in setting everything up once we purchase the equipment?
We're not looking for the cheapest solutions, but the best ones.
Setting Up MX Records
May 6, 2008Have been reading around the net trying to figure out how to do this and arrived here. Thought I would see if someone could advise me on how to change some MX records.
At the moment there are 4 records :
A @ IP Address: xxx.xx.xxx.xx
A www IP Address: xxx.xx.xxx.xx
A mail IP Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
MX @ Host Name: xxx.domain.com
Priority : 10
I need to add two MX records. Do I delete the existing record?
and do I set them as MX @ Host Name or do I need to do something else?
I did manage to set some MX records a long time ago but have completely forgotten how to do it now
Setting Up Apache
Jul 14, 2008I have read apache docs.
I have entered document root:
# DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will serve your
# documents. By default, all requests are taken from this directory, but
# symbolic links and aliases may be used to point to other locations.
#
DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs"
DocumentRoot "C:/operator1/oex-onmedias/primary"
So now apparently, when I type "myurl" in my browser, it would display C:/operator1/oex-onmedias/primary/index.html, but it does not work! Why?
Another question, how would I then be able to browse my actual website on my web host after I have uploaded it to my online server if the url is the same? it would only take me to the local server.
Last question, how would I set up multiple local websites on apache? Do I need to do a new apache install for each website? Or if not, how do I divide doc-root urls and domains of multiple sites in my config file?
