I am having trouble finding any providers that provide Opensuse on their configs. So far, the only one seems to be 1&1 and I certainly do not want to be going near them anytime soon.
Does anyone know of a reputable company that can provide Opensuse based servers?
Anyone out there have experience with SuSE over RedHat? RHEL is obviously the generalized Enterprise version used across most commercial hosting companies, but I'm interested in hearing about some SuSE experiences people have had.
It looks like SoftLayer offers SuSE and a couple VPS hosting companies do the same. I'm wondering how many large-scale sites are run on this operating system.
I have been trying to compare Red Hat to SUSE Linux, and can't really come to a definitive solution. I can't seem to find anyone that uses SUSE (Well, hardly anyway), but I found out that they have over double to market share that Red Hat has so somebody is definitely using them. I also noticed that SUSE is cheaper too.
Based on your experiences, what are some of the pros / cons both ways? Who offers better product training (I wan't to get certified directly)? Who has better product support? Is AppArmor better than SELinux?
By the way, I am only looking for commercial linux distributions. Specifically companies that offer product training.
I have a server which runs suse linux on it. Postfix is already installed on it.
But, the problem is i am not able to send mail using root. I mean using mail -v command.
I could see the following in mail logs. I know 2 files main.cf and master.cf are there.
Not, sure what to change and how.

The same thing happens will Gmail also. I think outgoing mail is not working at all.

I'm working with a local startup and we are looking into potential backup solutions. We have roughly 9 servers all running some variation of susE linux (some straight susE and some X Server which runs off susE).
We are needing a backup solution that will allow us to securely get data off the servers on a regular interval. We are unable to move the data off site as we are running on a single T1 line with moderate utilization, certainly not enough BW to go off site.
OS is OpenSuse 13.1.Yast shows the installed version of Apache2 as 2.4.6-6.23.1..I created my own CA, and used that to create a server certificate. The CA crtificate (in PEM format), and the server key and certificate have been placed in the appropriate directories in /etc/apache2 (the key in ssl.key and the certificates in ssl.crt).
When I check the status, after restarting apache, I see an error claiming that socache_shmcb_module is not installed and that it is ignored. This is, of course wrong, as I included that module in /etc/sysconfig/apache2, and the appropriate LoadModule statement in the Loadmodule.conf file (with the proper full path - /usr/lib64/apache2). This error is the only error I see on the server.
direction of any companies who offer dedicated servers with SuSe -

I'd need to setup two nameservers so I could register domains.
NAT IP is the ip shown at whatismyip.com? or is it ip my router gives out eg 192.168.4.103?
I will be dropping my shared-hosting plan and ordering a small VPS as soon as I can decide on which operating sytem to use. It seems that most companies offer the following choices: Suse, Debian, Fedora and CentOS.
I freely admit that I am a full-fledged n00b when it comes to linux and will be learning as I go, the problem is I just don't know where to start because I'm not familiar with any of them. I have at least heard of Suse, Debian and Fedora before, but didn't even know this CentOS existed until yesterday... and yet, it seems to be one of the more popular choices.
So I was wondering if some of you seasoned VPS veterans here could recommend an OS, tell me what the differences are, or otherwise share any experience you might have with any of them.
I've got SUSE 10 loaded and installed at home.
My ISP service is highspeed from Comcast (speed right now not an issue), I would like to setup a domain name on the box to play around with - nothing serious yet.
I have several domain names purchased (Wildwest & Enom) and would like to use one of those on this box, or even more domains at a later day.
Does anyone knows how on Linux (SuSE) remove files ending with (lets say) *.1.0.1
when I try rm *.a.1
it outputs - to many arguments if rm test.* - everything is fine.
How can I restart a SUSE server multiple times?
how to use Cron to restart the server every 5 minutes and then log the number of times this was done and output it to a file?
I am trying to transfer a domain from the server for Plesk 11.5 to 12 system is SUSE 13.1. After restoring the manager from within Backup getting errors:

Gazzin.com offers so many OSs on their VPS deals - CentOS, Debian, Fedora Core 3, Fedora Core 4, Gentoo, Opensuse, Suse, Unbuntu. Which one would you advise me to start from?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am looking for some decent tools to test a web server that can run large scale web sites running Windows and Linux.
I am more interested in the underlying hardware at this point to see if the servers them selves are capable of withstanding the loads without choking.
I am most interested in Disk testing and Network testing but the server but of course the server as a whole is important to since cpu and memory bottle neck can affect everything.

I have a forum that is growing fast ( using 1 webserver and 1 mysql server now), and i am planing to add one more web server to load balance.
What options do i have?
Which one is best for Forum vbulletin load balance?
traffic has been surging lately and is expected to continue surging. i am already on the fastest chipset my webhost has.
current configuration
single server (centos), webserver (apache), single filesystem. many dynamic pages (perl script) but no mysql database. no php.
ideal configuration
multiple webservers (apache), single file system.
assuming my scripts do not write to the filesystem (read only), what do i need to install or do in order to send a request for www.domain.com to server1.domain.com or server2.domain.com or server3.domain.com according to the load of each? it should look the same at the front end. anyone know what i need to get?
Due to our bad connectivity in our actual French hosting provider (OVH), we need to search for alternatives.
Please post opinions about other hosting companies that can give same configurations at a reasonable price, if possible with related experience with them.
Actually -from 1 year ago- we have the following configuration at OVH:
1xDBServer: Intel Q6600, 1x250GB, 8GB DDR2, 100Mbps (not real on a daily constant), Wind2K3 STD. : 130eur. + vat
1xWebServer: Intel Core2, 1x160GB, 1GB DDR2, 100Mbps (not real on a daily constant), Win2K3 WEB Ed. : 49eur. + vat
All days we have traffic problems, with low real bandwith connection, also with poor pings to/from Spain (where most percentatge of our users come).
We need to find a hosting provider with a same or a litle best configuration with the follow requisits:
-100Mbps per server [If possible, 100Mbps dedicated (non shared, without aggregation ratio)], UNMETTERED.
-IMPORTANT: Good bandwith connectivity
-Preferable Datacenter hosted in Europe
-WebServer same config, but 2GB DDR (also can be an AMD), if possible with W2K8 WebEd.
-DatabaseServer same config. preferable with 16GB DDR, also preferable -optional- with 2x or 3xSAS 15K. (RAID 1 or Raid 5)
-Possible upgrades (specially beacuse OVH is the first to launch a server with Intel 25GB SSL drives that are superfaster (look at ovh.fr for model HG2009). Any other has support or previsions to serve SSL Drives?)
-If possible, with X days break of contract agreement (money back guaranteed)
We can pay some more at a month, but on the first months we can't pay more than around 500$/Euros.
to do a standby fail over solution for a web server box. I would like the solution to be automated so that in the event of a failure the change happens without any manual intervention.
I have 2 identical hardware boxes and bandwidth is not an issue.

look at the Combo deal. basically you buy ASUS M2N-LR Socket AM2 NVIDIA nForce Professional 3600 ATX Server Motherboard - Retail and get AMD Athlon 64 X2 3600+ Windsor 2.0GHz 2 x 256KB L2 Cache Socket AM2 Processor - Retail for free.
how's this combo for a windows web server with 4gb none ECC RAM and a 2U case to go with it?
Awhile back I was scouring the site (and the web) to find a single location where I could learn how to set up a Linux webserver on my Windows machine. I found many great references and tutorials -- bits and pieces of some really great stuff -- but not one single location to walk me through the entire process.
So... I created one!

This blog in intended to assist knuckleheads like me in setting up their own Linux webserver. In it are step by step instructions for VMWare on Windows, Linux Debian Etch, Apache, MySQL, PHP, Ruby, Rails, Mongrel, PHPMyAdmin, GD and more. The goal was to create a real world environment where I could learn how to prepare a Linux webserver, so when the day comes that I purchase my own VPS space, I will be ready to set it up...
This was a great learning experience for me, and I hope a good resource for other newbies like me in the days to come.
