View 14 RepliesWe have 8 IP's on our dedicated server, and only 3 are being used. The other 5, according to bandmin, are using both incoming and outgoing bandwidth. I've never seen this before. Each IP is using on average... 160mb (in+out).
My server provider says its normal, but he didn't really seem interested in the problem.
In my new job as webmaster (last one left without notice), I added 12 IP addresses to our managed server. Silly me, thought the cpanel would show the new ones seperate from the ones currently used.
But when I went to add a new website, I discovered that now all IP addresses (both used and unused) are listed in the same dropdown menu. Web host tech supt says unless I had a listing of old, used IP addresses, to compare with, I would have to manually test each one.
Since this company has over 100+ websites on this server, this will be slow going.
Does any one have an idea of a legit software app that I can use test ping my websites for me so I can track down these newly assigned but unused IP addresses for my sites?
if there is any good method for finding files that have not been accessed by the server for a long period of time. I was thinking this might be a good way of clearing space.

· Local MySQL server (default for MySQL)
· .MSSQLSERVER2012
· sql-db-1 (default for MS SQL)
We only expect to use the remote sql-db-1 database for user databases.
Can we delete the other 2 databases and is this recommended? Does the Local MySQL server contain the Plesk Management database/schema?

to move all my sites from my current reseller account ASAP and would like to get VPS.

There are around 25 sites and they are currently hosted on cpanel, I would need the new host to move them over for me.
I would like to have someone help make this transition as smooth (and quick) as possible, can I get some recommendations?
I got this email recently just after doing a cpanel update (/script/upcp)

IMPORTANT: Do not ignore this email.
This message is to inform you that the account http has user id 0 (root privs).
This could mean that your system was compromised (OwN3D). To be safe you should
verify that your system has not been compromised.
What should I do next? Was this because of the update, or should I reinstall the system?

I am trying to sign up but can't seem to order.
I am trying to set up my first VPS account and it has gone reasonably well until I was actually going to point my domain to the IP I have received. I am absolutely confused as how to set up my own DNS and the instructions I have found have not made me significantly smarter..
I am on Debian using DirectAdmin control panel. Domains are registered through NameCheap. What I first tried doing was just using the two DNS adresses that were in the DirectAdmin administrator settings panel as it was installed but this didn't seem to work and when pinging these hosts I didn't get an answer at all. I reckon this is not the way to do it..

I would like to create an account for my staff but im quite novice of this and i dont know the directories name
Create a FTP user group. eg: ftpaccounts
#/usr/sbin/groupadd ftpaccounts
Add a new user to this group, and set the default path of that user to /home/user/.
#/usr/sbin/adduser -g ftpaccounts -d /home/user/ testuser
Set a password for the newley created user.
#passwd testuser
Set ownership of /home/user to the testuser and ftpaccounts.
#chown testuser:ftpaccounts /home/user
Give Read/Write access to testuser and all members in ftpaccounts
#chmod 775 /home/user
Edit /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf file and make sure 'local_enable=YES' is uncommented.
Restart the vsftpd service.
#/etc/init.d/vsftpd restart
when i ssh the server and type "w" to show who is online,
it looks likely there was a console login without loging out,
i want to ask what command i can type to take the account out?
I wish to auto shut the expired accounts on server, cpanel does not have any such functionality so i could not do this. Once i posted in this forum and recommendation was to install the billing software for cpanel/whm. After I found they are comprehensive products and not easy to use/install/troubleshoot.
I just want to set the expiration of domains in WHM so when they complete their tenure they should be closed it self. Could you people advise what can i do this with minimum efforts?
I dont need any billing system just to handle expiration of accounts.
I would appreciate if you can give me a stable solution with product name as i am concerned about my server stability and security as well.

My bqbackup account is completely down at this time. I can not access SSH, FTP nothing.
I sent email directly to Scott and to support too. My emails was send 2 hours ago. No reply yet.
I am a new client of bqbackup, so I have not any experience with them. So my doubth is if this kind of problem is normal and if 2 hours without reply of support is normal too?
How can I create a new account in SSH? how can I do this for one of our resellers?
we use cPanel.
after reading the complete thread about Limestone's TOS and weighing their latest server offering, I took the plunge and just spent $160 on a monthly server.
My email from them is dated today at 6:44 pm.
Let's see how long it takes to get this server in my hands. Nothing special in the order, an extra hd for backup, that is it.
I'm a newbie here but not a newbie to unmanaged servers. If this one goes off without a hitch, I'll move a few sites from a box I currently have a ManageMyBox (no problems with them, at all, just looking for a datacenter closer to home and this seemed like a good deal).
I created an account in take2hosting.com ...
then i checked their ph0ne number with my phone verification system (i checked it to know what type of phone do they using! (voip , cell phone , etc) here is the result: [url]
remove * and replace xx to tt
They're using a VOIP phone! and they say they're a company ...
SO i Asked them in a ticket why do you use a voip phone , they didn't answer me and closed my ticket! next time again ask them 2 question! first why did you close my last ticket and why do you use a voip phone ) I get banned and the ticket again closed!
