Using VPS's To Make Shell Reseller?
Is it possible to purchase a VPS, add MANY ips, to reverse DNS, and a cpanel, to make a shell reseller effect? Using the ips as vhosts, cpanel to setup other shell accounts etc?
Also, does anyone know of a provider who sells many cheap IPs with VPS's?

Invalid Command 'php_flag' - After Recompiling PHP & Apache?
After I recompiled Apache and PHP using easyapache from cPanel, we started getting all these weird errors. I'm getting a few people now complaining about not being able to enable register_globals. I believe (after searching) that having this enabled is a big security risk and shouldn't need to be used. However, some people apparently where using .haccess and php_flag to enable this. I did find on a few places that people can create their own php.ini file to emulate what was previously done with .htaccess? After searching around.. I found out that Register Globals can become a security risk based on the scripts configuration that uses it. This feature normally can be enabled via .htaccess using the glad "php_flag register_globals On". Creating a file called php.ini inside the directory of the site with the flag "register_globals=on" I believe will also enable this option. To enable this option on a global scale, you can edit '/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/etc/php.ini', but its not recommended. However.. We are unable to get the php.ini concept to work. Is there something I need to do to enable/allow users to do this for their account?

Any 'easy' Smtp / Pop / Imap Package Or Installer W/o Having To Read Up On Exim Etc.?
any 'easy' smtp / pop / imap package or installer w/o having to read up on exim etc.? I want an email server quickly, w/o having to become an expert... I'd go w/ a hosted service, but I open allot of pop3 connections... (program I use downloads one email, closes connection, reopens... repeat)... There's lots of cookbooks out there, but they require quite a bit more time commitment (and configurability) than I want / need. Is there any dumbified installs available? I tried with webmin, but even that wants me to manually configure a postfix / imap server bridge.=

Qmail - I'm Afraid I Wasn't Able To Deliver Your Message
Basically a client has been getting really bad email problems with their email. They keep getting the standard qmail msg back from several emails. I originally thought this msg was being returned as it was an invalid receipients address, but they are assuring me that this is not the case? Anyway the basic msg they are getting is: Hi. This is the qmail-send program at p16489287.pureserver.info. I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out ....

BoxVPS = Useless | STAY AWAY From This 'company'
URL: http://www.boxvps.com Their recent promotion thread: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=889733 Extremely non-professional service. Took them 48 hours to setup my VPS. Also had to create a support ticket. And when it was finally delivered, there was no DirectAdmin on it. Specially disturbing, since I actually paid for a monthly license. Not to mention that their responses are very vague. They claim to apply the promotions (triple disk space, double bandwidth) 24 hours after they setup the VPS. I have no idea why they do that. Moreover, they have false advertising on their VPS page (Instant Activation..where it should read 'We don't activate your VPS unless you create a support ticket). A speedtest from the VPS showed that the VPS is capable of bursting to a maximum of 10mbps, while average speed is barely 2mbps. Stay away from these guys. They're potential scammers. They WILL scam.. sooner or later.

Looking For Host That Supports $_SERVER['PATH_INFO']
I am finishing up on my clients site and the ecommerce software we use has an option for search engine friendly URL's but your server must support $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] . My client is hosted by GoDaddy and my host (HostGator) does not support it unless you go dedicated. I need $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] Dedicated IP, PHP, MySQL, .htaccess support preferably CPanel - not Plesk Less than $120 / year I am looking for a well established company like the ones I previously mentioned because my client wants peace of mind and I don't want to screw him over.

What Is The Reverse Command For 'mount --bind'
A few days ago, when installing TUX, I have mounted the virtual hosting directory to var/www/html/mywebsite.com (that's an empty directory I created in order for TUX to work) via: mount --bind /home/virtual/site1/fst/var/www/html/ /var/www/html/mywebsite.com/ command..... After figuring out that TUX has some problems I reverted everything but not this mount --bind command.. What is the reverse command for this, so everything will come back to the point which they were before?

Mapping Subdomains To Different VPS's
I was wondering if it is possible to host subdomains on different VPS's? Here is what I am trying to do PrimaryDomain.com -> Hosted on VPS0 | - Subdomain1.primaryhost.com -> Hosted on VPS1 | - Subdomain2.primaryhost.com -> Hosted on VPS2 VPS0, VPS1, VPS2 have different IP addresses. I tried using A records to point subdomains to different VPS but VPS requires a "primary domain" looks like. Do let me know if this is possible. I tried google but not sure what exactly I shoudl be searching for.

Jailed Shell On A VPS
On a VPS I am using, I was astonished to see that when I login through SSH to a WHM account, I can go right up to the VPS system directories, do an ls, read the files etc. the user is able to get into the all the VPS directories, except root. It's fine in FTP. Although I can see the link to the directory above home, clicking on it does not take the user to those directories. When I ask my service provider, they say, "Yes, this is normal behavior. The users will still be able to move into the other users' home directories but they will not be able to write to the files or open them". It seems to me this isn't a good situation. How can I prevent shell users from going beyond their home directories? Is implementing a jailed shell a good option? Can I use this feature that is readily available in WHM?

Cloud Hosting - To Me A 'Blackbox'

Which cloud hosting you recommend and why?

Registrar's Domain Name Server Service For My VPS?
I'm wondering is it possible to use RegisterFly's DNS server for my VPS. I only have 1 website on the VPS, but I want to increase the reliability of my site overall and thought if it were possible to give the DNS operations to my Registrar, who probabily really does have seperate DNS servers, this would be a good move. Since it would allow me to disable BIND (freeing up resources/memory), and put the DNS operations to quite possibly a more reliable set of servers (since my 2 DNS servers are actually just my 1 VPS) What are the Pros/Cons of this type of arrangement? So I need to know, can it technically be done, and what zones entries I need to create.

Can Make Several VPS From One Account (Using HyperVM Or Etc.)
I created my own CSS and PHP templates, and have an Enom reseller account with 100 or so URLs. After all this work, I might as well offer low-maintenance turnkey websites to any mom-and-pop or spare-time business person who likes my designs and solutions. (I will make it clear to them that I am not a primary webhost, and might not be able to help with any complications.) For security and to avoid mishaps, I would like to operate these different ventures totally separately from my main webhosting account. I could simply buy a secondary non-VPS reseller account. These start as low as $5-$10 monthly. Ideally however, if possible for similarly low cost, I would like to go all-VPS. While browsing the 'offers' for a low-cost VPS, an interesting alternative was mentioned. Someone seemed to imply that HyperVM can be used to create a multi-VPS environment...? Thus far, I am only familiar with Cpanel, and it was not proper for me to discuss this in an 'offers' thread. I would like to know however, is this true and if so, what does it mean...? ...Presumably a true dedicated server is needed...? Then, using HyperVM, this single account might be separated into several 'virtually virtual' VPS accounts...? ...Or, perhaps a VPS itself can be separated into several VPS accounts...? (Fat chance I suppose...) In either case, then at some time perhaps, I could offer my clients who have multiple sites their own VPS accounts for enhanced security. My standard for 'account separation' is only: in an IP lookup, the two accounts will show different hostnames. As you know: normally, all accounts within a single VPS will show the same hostname. If two accounts can show 2 different hostnames, I will consider that 'separation.' I am not very concerned about performance levels. The goal is reseller accounts to generate small 'beginner sites' or 'starter sites'. My standard for these is just to be one level above a 'parking site' or a 'personal home page.' These sites will not be used for forums or other advanced software. I will advise my customers that if they achieve any serious cash flow, then they should find a more advanced webhosting environment.

Cannot Send Mail Through VPS SMTP Server. The Usual Fixes Didn't Work.
Over the past week, the SMTP server on my VPS has been hanging whenever I try to send an email from my computer. It'll eventually work again, but now it's been down for the count for about 18 hours. Tech support keeps on recommending minor fxes and issuing standard responses like "try disanbling your firewall" and the like, but nothing works. I have already told them this: * I know _you_ can probably send POP/SMTP mail through my server. I can't. * Mozilla Thunderbird will connect and send mail through other POP/SMTP servers.. Not my server here. * I can connect to _receive_ email, but I can't send it. * My ISP (SBC/AT&T ADSL) does not block outgoing mail to port 25 on my account; I had the block removed. * I've got an exim server running on port 26, too. Doesn't make a difference. * I tried connecting from another ISP (my work PC). Still can't send mail. * I tried using IP addresses instead of my domain name. Doesn't work. * I didn't change any account names, passwords or anything like that. * I tried other email clients. Can't send mail with them, either. * The exim queue has very few messages in it. Clearing the queue didn't work. * I disabled firewalls. Didn't help. Besides, I was able to connect to other mail servers - just not my VPS here. * There are no typos in any of the account or general configuration settings in my client. Nothing changed. One day I could send mail, now I'm having problems. I keep saying this, and keep attaching entried from exim_mainlog with error messages like this PROVING that I can't send mail: 2007-02-01 08:26:00 H=adsl***** [*****]:1294 I=[*****]:25 incomplete transaction (connection lost) from for *****@gmail.com 2007-02-01 08:26:00 unexpected disconnection while reading SMTP command from adsl***** [*****]:1294 I=[*****]:25 2007-02-01 08:26:17 SMTP connection from [*****]:1344 I=[*****]:25 (TCP/IP connection count = 1) 2007-02-01 08:29:34 H=adsl***** [*****]:1344 I=[*****]:25 incomplete transaction (connection lost) from for *****@gmail.com 2007-02-01 08:29:34 unexpected disconnection while reading SMTP command from adsl***** [*****]:1344 I=[*****]:25 Any ideas? I think tech support at my end has given up; it's been hours since I last heard from them, and that was just to say that they updated everything to the current version, and disable the firewall. (Again!) Didn't work. So, before I pack my bags and find another VPS host, what should I do? Having outgoing SMTP email is a MUST; not having it is a deal-breaker.

VPS Vs Reseller
I am designing websites for diffrent folks for some years now from time to time and it's time for me to move on. Get more clients and so on and monetize everything or as much as i can. Well, providing for them full services witch consists in Hosting + domain registration + all there is. Since most of them have no idea about anything when they come to me, most don't even after hard explaining, i wanna cut down to 1 fee that includes everything...designing, updating, In the past few days i've seen tones of reviews and offers and re re reviews, i can say by know that it's a dirty game going on played by some managers, lol...the idea is that i can't trust what they say nor the reviews that i have seen cause in one place it's all milk and honey and in another place it's sucky to say the least. So my buget to start with would be from 10$ to 20$/month. I prefer a host that owns it's stuff and it's the first hand and not a re re re seller. I want cPanel/WHM - unlimited accounts (domains, sub-domains, bla bla bla...basic stuff) No tax for transferring domains No hidden taxes - no scammers pls cause i have enough already in my life MONTHLY PAYMENT To be able to get ip's for a fair price from diffrent classes. I'm planning to make an extra income from blogg farming (no spam from servers. got my own stuff) I see that reseller and VPS are kind of the same price so what would be better. I have limited knowledge of unix (i used to work some years ago but my skills were crapy and surley i forgot everything) but i can update/upgrade them to some point...hope it won't be required, don't have so much time nor the brains

Reseller To VPS
I'm currently on a reseller, and as I gain clients I'll be moving to a VPS in the very near future from the looks of it. Coming from a reseller where I haven't had any performance spikes, and everything has been working great....what sort of specs should I look for in a VPS in terms of RAM? I like using cPanel/WHM. As far as shared hosting, and reseller hosting the main aspects are simply space and bandwidth. Then of course the company ethics and support reliablility and whatnot. From a server aspect, it's just space and bandwidth provided. I'm assuming a VPS adds a few new dimensions including RAM.

VPS Reseller
We have set up a VPS reseller option that gives the customer a set amount of ram/disk space/bandwidth transfer rate etc. and allows them through HyperVM to set up their own VPS's and sell them on, they are even able to spread them over multiple servers, albeit we only have 2 VPS servers at present. Its a pretty nice offer and seems pretty decent but i cant help but wonder why other hosts are not doing this? I only looked into it because a sales associate had mentioned it was possible. Is there a potential for abuse that im not seeing? The plans i was thinking of offering was roughly: 1GB ram 30-40 GB disk space Fair share bandwidth for about $100 The servers we have are 8GB quad core Xeon E7300. i am thinking i am overlooking some kind of abuse issue that is why no other hosts are providing this,

VPS Vs Reseller
After having shared hosting for years I am thinking of moving on to something a little more reliable/advanced. I need it to be basic and cheap at first but with room to grow. So, my questions: 1. Am I likely to see a significant speed/reliability benefit with VPS over reseller space? 2. Am I likely to encounter any big headaches with a VPS as a total beginner? 3. Are there any big advantages to a VPS besides moving out of a shared environment? 4. Is it realistic to run a VPS when I know nothing about Linux admin (yet)? 5. How is Plesk vs Cpanel? Right now, my needs are basic. I could probably go with a cheap VPS but my lack of knowledge would mean I would need some kind of management on top. I'm tempted to get a reseller account but I wouldn't want outgrow it and move again anytime soon.

Reseller Package On VPS
Anyone know of any hosting service that provides a FULL Reseller Package on VPS, NOT SHARED. ALL Reseller Packages I have found are on "shared hosting"? Why is that? As a Reseller the most important thing to me for my clients is Isolation and Reliability. I don't want to subject myself or my clients to a shared hosting environment. Isn't this a reasonable request? I have the budget, but just can't find what I'm looking for. And I don't think I'm asking for the extraordinary for a TRUE RESELLER Package. Major Points I need: 1. Billing Management Software (WHMCS-clientExec-WHM.AutoPilot-I know I can get it myself, but why not offer it for Resellers?) 2. Merchant Account/Payment Gateway (I know I can get it myself but why not offer it for Resellers?) 3. At least 40gb Disk Space 4. At least 512 RAM burstable to 1024 5. Fantastico 6. RVSkin/RVSite Builder 7. Live Chat Support 24/7 (not the kind that says "leave us a message") 8. Zend and IonCube pre-installed 9. CPU share at least 30% 10. DoS protection, Firewall APF, IPTables, Server Hardening 11. Daily off server or off site backups 12. Zend and Ioncube installed 13. SSL (free install?) 14. cPanel/WHM (ALL the stuff that comes with it) 15. RoundCube webmail 16. Guaranteed 99.9% Uptime If you cannot offer ALL of this on a VPS, please don't bother posting. I don't care too much for a bunch of "add-on" pricing either, can you just give me one price. If you offer a Reseller Package without billing management software and a merchant account it is NOT a COMPLETE RESELLER PACKAGE. How am I supposed to sell hosting without these?

Shared, Reseller Or VPS
bext type of server to get for my current requirements please. I need a server to host a simple company web site and our product which is also a web site. The company web site will be set up soon but the product is still 5-6 months away from being put onto the market. So at present I need a server to host the web site and also need a place where I can host the web site product as I continue to develop it and upload files to the server. Now ultimately the web site product will have a number of users (I hope!) will contain content including video presentations and will will have a forum so it's important that users have fast access to such material without having to wait. I thought I would go for a VPS from a company called VT6 Internet who have had some good reviews on this forum. My budget is around £70 ($140) per month. However I'm now considering whether I might be able to save some money and go a for a decent (buy cheaper option) in the mean time while the product continues to be developed. Such as a shared host or a reseller? I would be really grateful for any advice from you guys please. If you were in an early stage situation like mine would you go straight for a VPS or make do with a shared or reseller and upgrade as your company grows?

Reseller Vs. VPS Hosting
I've had a VPS for about 4 years now, and overall have been happy with it. I have about 25 domains now, with moderate traffic to most of them. I'm getting close to the capacity of the VPS, and need to expand. I'm thinking my next account will be a reseller account. The reason is that I don't want to have anything to do with managing the hosting. I view the reseller account as being a more hands-off hosting approach. Am I right in assuming this? Capacity and cost of the various plans seem close enough to not be a factor for me. Would I lose anything in going to reseller hosting? Most of my domains are pretty simple WordPress blogs or html sites. I'm assuming that with reseller hosting, things like updating cpanel, php, mySQL, etc. are done by the hosting comapany and completely transparent to me.

Why Is Vps Better Than Reseller Hosting
I've been researching for a few weeks now trying to decide if I should go ahead and purchase vps hosting, and I tried out a few services and so far I'm really not seeing the advantage. a lot of these hosts only offer you about 256-384 mb of ram! how are you supposed to run a web server with so little ram? I installed one site on one vps i was trying out and it crashed immediately with "out of memory" exceptions... this same site runs ok on reseller, a bit slow yes (which is why i wanted to move to vps) but I never got a memory error. not to mention that if you're running the web server AND the db server that's going to destroy your 384 mb of ram even 512 doesn't seem like enough... now I'm not trying to bitch I'm trying to understand, maybe vps isn't what i'm looking for. can someone explain what the advantage is if I'm getting so little resources compared to reseller hosting?

Moving From Reseller To VPS
I've bought a VPS and have copied all of the clients data to the new server. I've setup my resolvers to point to the new nameserver IPs. Now I need to edit the host.com host record IPs from my old ones to my new ones. (example domain) ns1.host.com and ns2.hosting.com I've gone to fasthosts' control panel where I registered host.com and attempted to delete the old host records but this fails because other domains are pointing to the current records. How can I update the host records for ns1 and ns2 with my new nameserver IPs?

Moving Away From HostICan Reseller To VPS
since February (this year) I was a happy reseller user of HostICan. When I moved with them they transfered all my accounts and had no problems for the months I stayed with them. But all has to come to an end ... and I moved from their reseller because they closed it. But, what better place to move from HostICan reseller than HostICan VPS? About a week ago we agreed to be transfered to one of their VPS. Painless, free, fast (half our for 40 cpanel accounts) and had no problems at all. I just waited a week to make sure nothing bad happens so I can tell you about this. Anything else? No downtime that I know about, fast services and fast support. I didn't had more than 3 support tickets in all these months I must say these guys really took care of me all these months, especially Denis Motova. Not a bad review like you would of thought ... Very satisfied with them... one of the best hosts I've been with.

Reseller Shared Hosting Or VPS
Wouls it be better to have a good resseller account like Cirtex RC1 or take a 256Mb cPanel/Lxadmin VPS? It's for a relatively busy Joomla site. I don't feel like adding it to my main VPS as I fear it will affect performance. My current VPS is 512Mb from Solar VPS and I could up this to 768 for less money but I want to separate the 2 sites. My budget does not allow me to spend more than $20-$25 more. The catch is I want it managed. Would a reseller account be the way?
