by using dedicated server/IP via ssh, is there any cmd for it?
My website provides streaming videos of live events through a third party software called Sopcast.
Currently i have hosted it on a shared server which cannot high CPU load when an event occurs. The hosting company takes down my website.
I am looking for need a solution by which thousand of visitors can watch the video at any given time. The streaming videos are not hosted on my website. I need a dedicated server that can manage high CPU load.
My current website now have 16k unique visitor/day.
Last time I was host my website in HostGator shared plan, and it can't handle any more.
Maybe for the first time, I won't looking for superb server, but will be try small specification.
Slow but sure, I will upgrade it based on my website's growth.
about price, specs that can handle my website, and the provider.
I paid for a server with GeekRack.net 8 days ago, and have seen no sign of the server being setup.
Now I know they are just a Burst.net reseller, they don't own or order the hardware or even have physical access to the servers, they simply get 25% off Burst.net and just resell their servers. That said you'd expect at least some sort of notification on when the server would be ready by, especially by now, right?
Im setting up a website that will facilitate people to be able to upload and download files.
As you can imagine a lot of people will be downloading so i need unlimited bandwith.
Also require maybe 1tb of diskspace with the option to expand wen needed.
Im not sure how cpu intensive this is but if people can recommend me specs, companies i should be looking for with links that would be very much appreciated.

I have a VPS and run few websites. I am not good in Apache and Linux. I just got a dedicated IP address for one of my domains. I like that the website opens just by typing the IP address in the address bar of the browser. How can I activate that?

Price is obviously important too.
I would also like to know if countries like India offer good reliable high quality managed dedicated server packages too? Or if its better to go with a company in the United Kingdom or the USA etc?
Perhaps there is someone on this forum who also runs a dating/social networking website and can recommend a good dedicated managed hosting package as well?
the salesman claims he will "give you uptime in the high nines", then the VPS account he just sold you goes offline three times the next day for about an hour each time. You know this for an absolute fact because every user on the 50 domains you just configured on the VPS has called you and informed you he or she "can't get my e-mail". Come to think of it, the salesman might have actually said "give me a high five".

View 4 Replies View RelatedThe experience I had in the past was with shared hosting. Now I am willing to operate a download website at which the files will be hosted on my server. I am not willing to invest a lot of money in the website resources in the first few months since I don't expect to receive a lot of traffic at the very beginning. Therefore, I decided to go for something in between shared hosting and dedicated hosting.
I decided to choose [url]
Intel Dual Xeon Harpertown
512MB Guaranteed SLM RAM
60GB RAID-10 Disk Space
800GB Bandwidth
4 Dedicated IPs
cPanel / WHM
Virtuozzo 4 with Power Panel
Fantastico, RVSkin, WHMCS Available
1- What do you think about WiredTree?
2- Can I control anything related to htaccess (like modrewrite) in VPS?
3- Do I truely need Fantastico, RVSkin, WHMCS cpanels or is cPanel just enough?
I just wanted to forewarn ANY considering signing up with Servage, LOOK ELSEWHERE! They may be cheap, and they may be offshore (the reason I had chosen them), but they are probably the *worst* web host in business today.
I have been a customer with them for 2 years and here is an itemized list of issues with Servage to date (this doesn't include the issues Servage actually resolved):
- 1 month after signup, Servage experienced a DDoS; all their customers lost all their e-mails for a 72 hour period
- 8 TIMES in the past year, I've had to contact their support because my websites PING requests would consistently time out and the pages not load leading me to actually setup an account with SiteUptime (BTW, they NEVER made anything faster, they always would blame me, even on a static HTML site with no more than 2 simultaneous users)
- Servage advertises 99.98% uptime, my results from SiteUptime for the past 6 months has revealed to me that my actual uptime is about 93.1%, this is TERRIBLE, the worst in the industry in my opinion
- a month ago, every site on my Servage account had redirects to porn or spyware: my passwords are always a mix of foreign characters, uppercase, lowercase, numbers and no shorter than 8 characters. Servage tells me to delete all the files myself and change my passwords. They refuse to accept the responsibility that a hacker got into their master control panel
- They are HOLDING MY DOMAIN HOSTAGE! I made the mistake of signing up my main .com (all the others are with GoDaddy) with them since 1 domain was free with hosting for the life of my account. There is NO WAY they allow you to transfer this domain! They only let you DELETE it (then you have to wait for it to expire, backorder, etc. and chance losing your domain)
There are so many more issues that I could go over, but I think I've made my point.
If you're thinking Servage, I'd recommend you stay away!
There ARE other offshore hosts...
I just had a few questions. I recently purchased a VPS thta had WHM and cPanel (obviously). Its running off of CentOS.
now, I have a site created, but I dont know how to configure my site so that when someone clicks on the plan, they get directed to the particular spot to sign up (personal info...)Basically, I want to be able to allow an automated sign up without having to moderate it. However, I want to make someplans moderated only.
I was wondering if someone could help me with that.
Second, once someone DOES sign up, they would need to log in. I need to know how to configure the database (im guessing) so that they can sign in.
I just have a website with a dedicated IP address and shared SSL generated in CPanel.
I ask then my host to finish install, which they did.
Now, when I get into the certificated pages (HTTPS), I can see the https:// in the address box of the browser, however the lock sign does not show up.
How can I fix this? I would like to show this lock sign to show the site is secured, since not everybody knows what is a https connection.
I found a very good deal at https://order.1and1.co.uk/xml/order/...f=Order-Tariff
they offer unmetered 100 Mbit connection for 50 pounds a month. I'm living in Canada would I be allowed to sign up for that plan?
I'd like to get some feedback on what makes people sign up with a provider. On the flip side, what turns you away from a provider? Their site, feedback etc?
Personally, I like to see a provider that has reliability, stability and excellent customer care.
I decided to give HiVelocity a chance, and I myself has used several provider such as SoftLayer, The Planet, LayeredTech, and others. Let me begin with the sign up.
The initial sign up was very quick and easy. I got on live chat and Kevin gave me an amazing deal exactly what I was looking for spec and price wise. I paid and verification was done by Kevin within five minutes. I told him not to install an OS and just give me a KVM, so I can do it myself. He promised me that it would be setup that night, but I was assigned IPs listed in various spam databases, so I requested them to be changed.
Kevin was very helpful and tried, but the person who assigns the IPs was gone for the day, and it was friday, and it could have not been done until monday. I told Kevin to hold the deployment until Monday, which he did. I had an issue over the weekend, and everything got confusing, so Kevin who was off on weekend actually called me to clear things up, and comes Monday Kevin got the server up by 3:00PM EST. It was working well, but then I wanted remote reboot which became a nightmare. It took them a week to put me in the right rack to give me remote reboot. I started to ask them on Monday and it was done on Sunday or something. This was pretty annoying I had to get the IP's changed and what not, but Kevin responded to all my calls, live chat, and emails. I was given a good reimbursement by Kevin and Steve which made it worth while, but since then it has been great! If you are looking for a server with HiVelocity or just a good deal you might want to talk to Kevin, you can find him on live chat
Sales - 10/10
Support - 8/10
Billing - (I wish they had some sort of thing for weekend)
After all the exploration I decided order from LiquidWeb..
I am really excited .
I am gonna order today...will report how it all went!
Most of our fraudulent transactions come via sign-ups with free email accounts such as yahoo, gmail and hotmail. Is anyone aware of a system which will prevent customers using these email addresses (or other free ones) for hosting plan sign-ups?
View 3 Replies View RelatedOn 3rd of Jan 2007, a person by the name <name removed>has made a fraudulent purchase for a hosting site I developed and designed.
The whole site can be viewed at [url]
I developed and designed the site. I'm writing everyone a message here to warn everyone NOT to sign up their hosting packages when they see the above stolen site. The site is sold only exclusively so only the fraudulent buyer owns a copy of it. And I will not sell this site to anyone again. I can't tolerate cheat and will seek legal advice to file a case against Paypal and this fraudulent buyer.
This briefly what happened..
A payment is made by this fraudulent buyer on 3rd of Jan 2007. I checked the payment mode made is instant and not by credit card. He proceed to contact me at MSN after the payment is made. We chat on MSN and I prepared the files for him to review online and zipped up a copy for him to download from my server. Everything goes on smoothly until I received an email notification from Paypal stating the fund is unauthorized and my account is freezed.
This is the very first time I encountered this despite I've been providing online services and received payments by Paypal for years. I was fluttered and tried to contact the fraudulent buyer and I assumed it could be a misunderstanding. The buyer did not respond to my MSN message.
Within mins after I MSN him for clarification, I received an email from the said Paypal account owner stating he doesn't authorized the transaction and demand a full refund else he will commence legal actions. It is only to my awareness that this could be a fraudulent case. I MSN the fraud buyer and told him I have logged his IP which I really did. He quickly responded stating he doesn't know what happened.
While MSN with the fraud buyer, I simultaneously replied the email to the said PP account owner for verification and I requested the PP owner to sign in to MSN for verification. The PP account owner was suddenly not responsive and I carry on with the MSN conversation with the fraudulent buyer alone. The conversation turns ugly which he insisted this is an issue with PP and because I use PP, I am responsible for this to happen.
He last sentence in the conversation ends with " learn a few lessions your ****ing american, lovely 9/11, I partyed that day oh what fun" and that said PP account owner signed in shortly after. And instead of having the conversation with the fraudulent buyer and I together, he opened a new window and at that moment, the buyer disappeard offline. Yes, I do SUSPECT both identities belong to 1 person but I will not revealed much details on this part at this moment of time because I do not want the fraudulent buyer to get prepared to cover his ***.
I am very disgusted and disappointed by the way Paypal has handled this.
After receiving Paypal notification of unauthorized fund, the email request me to sign in to the resolution center to resolve it. HOWEVER, when I clicked the resolved button, there isn't any appropriate option for me to state my case as my item is not shipped, it is being downloaded. And when I click on "open a dispute", the options are meant solely for BUYERS only. Puzzled for a while and not knowing what to do, I use the option for OTHER and typed in a few lines telling me that I have logged all correspondences and the IP address which I will forward to them immediately when they requested it.
And before I get relieved from the dismay and I spent the entire day worrying and hoping for their call or email, Paypal closed the case within 36hours the dispute is opened! I was informed by a few short sentence stating the unauthorized access is valid and the case is closed. I, the seller, who have lost both items and money are not being asked for verification are shocked of how can this be justified? And I'm also liable for the transaction fee incurred!! This is ridiculous!
I have tried to contact Paypal after the case is closed. I tried to call PP but all I received is auto helpline which I couldn't find the appropriate group and I tried to go to the Help center and couldn't find the appropriate option to send my concern. The whole help center is designed to help Buyers to complain against Sellers and for PP to increase their users base. But I still send it under the option of Seller Protection Policy. I have also tried to email Paypal numerous times asking for verification on what are the steps they have taken to justify the case is closed? How do they proof that the access is unauthorized and how do they proof that the two identities are of two individuals and not in cahoots?
I was utterly angry with this and I can truly understand why that fraudulent buyer is laughing at me choosing Paypal as the payment gateway. The fraudulent buyer is obviously taking advantage of Paypal's inability, reluctance and lack of attention to protect their sellers from fraudulent acts.
The most hilarious part is, yesterday, I received a bounced mail from the email address I sent to Paypal. And today, I received an email from Paypal today telling me they have noted the transaction detail and THAT is a reply of mine which I sent within 5 mins on the very FIRST day I received the unauthorized fund notice. That means they closed the case even without even knowing what happened. WTF!!
And please all, do not allow this fraudulent buyer to get away easily. I DID NOT sell any copy of this site to anyone and only to that fraudulent buyer who cheated it. So, there shouldn't be anyone owning it except that fraudulent buyer. Do not let any innocents to fall into his trap again! He is setting up a hosting business and I am sure he will read this post here.
I've seek legal advice and I'm filing a suit against Paypal and the fraudulent buyer with all the proofs I have collected and documented. It is very obvious and clear that Paypal has encouraged fraudulent attempts by their lack of commitment and dedication to their users. Being rich and influential doesn't not give them the rights to led us by the nose.
I'm giving a chronological view of the whole incident and I'll follow up with more details. I will only do so after the case is filed and the hearing is done. And the identity of the Paypal account owner will be revealed after the filing is made.
If you are that fraudulent buyer reading this, I've given you chances to admit it and paid for it but you disregard it. I will honour my word and make sure everyone gets what they deserved. This is my hardwork which I spent time and effort doing it and you take it away within mins without guilt, I've told you it is going to cost you 100 times more when you cheat. Be very prepared for it.

I've got a problem with an SQL query that is behaving badly. Its probably really obvious, but I can't see the problem!
I have a table with 3 fields:
Code:
money bigint(20)
income int(12)
userID mediumint(7)
I have a row that has a negative money and a value of 0 for income. When I update the money value to add "0" to it, nothing happens (as expected). When I update the money field to add the income field (which is equal to 0) to it, MySQL flips the sign to make the money field positive.
The following queries show the problem:
Code:
mysql> SELECT money, income from users where userID=327961;
+----------------------+--------+
| money | income |
+----------------------+--------+
| -9223372036854775807 | 0 |
+----------------------+--------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
mysql> UPDATE `users` SET money = money + 0 WHERE userID =327961;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Rows matched: 1 Changed: 0 Warnings: 0
mysql> SELECT money, income from users where userID=327961;
+----------------------+--------+
| money | income |
+----------------------+--------+
| -9223372036854775807 | 0 |
+----------------------+--------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
mysql> UPDATE `users` SET money = money + income WHERE userID =327961;
Query OK, 1 row affected, 1 warning (0.00 sec)
Rows matched: 1 Changed: 1 Warnings: 1
mysql> SELECT money, income from users where userID=327961;
+---------------------+--------+
| money | income |
+---------------------+--------+
| 9223372036854775807 | 0 |
+---------------------+--------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
mysql>
Notice that there is no negative sign after the third select!!
So, we are saying that executing an update where 0 is specified in the query results in the correct action but if you take the 0 from another field it takes the negative sign away...
This for various reasons is a rather urgent problem. This problem has only appeared after upgrading from MySQL 4.0 to MySQl 5.1. This problem does not occur in MySQL 4.1.
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 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?

I am having pop-ups issues on my website. Previously I tried to solve it out but wasn't able to because due to 64 bit of Windows 2003 most of the softwares were having compatibility issues. But now when I have switched the server to 32-bit, on the new server, the website is still having the pop-ups. I have tried a couple of softwares to detect them, but in vain.
I am getting out of ideas now. Can someone help or suggest me something in this regard?
