While I am used to reselling and domain registration stuff, I am totally new to DNS stuff..I tried many searches and readings without hope. that's why I need your help.
We have a problem that makes both incoming and outgoing emails from our website's email server not going or received, without any failure message or error message on both sides: the sender and receiver.
We talked to our webhosting company- they do not own, but host on a dedicated provided by Iweb in Canada - and they told us a quick solution for this:
To buy a private IP address, therefore our websites with them will not get blocked as spammy IP, setting us away from the dozens of sites they have on the same server IP (as domaintools reverse IP reported: xx other sites hosted on this server).
The company I work for agreed on this solution immediately as we are loosing customers for this problem.
They charged us 8$ a month for this "private ip".
We had the same problem for another day after their solution, when I checked domaintools, I found our websites are still on the same IP of the company. I called them, and the Admin there told me: it's a hidden CNAME setting that is not shown to public because it's "private" and the delay happenned because we had to contact Hotmail staff and wait for their reply to include it in their safe list, but others as Gmail and Yahoo do not require contacting them and will go through automatically."
My question is:
- What is Private IP/ Private DNS? - Why and how it is used to prevent false blocking/bouncing? - Does that mean they had to sell it to every domain, while their IP is not on blacklists (I checked it). - Is Private IP just an internal setting or it has to be bought from a large ISP like regular/public IPs? and if just some settings, is this price fair? we pay 120$ annually for hosting one site with them. - They told us they put our other two sites on theis same new private IP. How can this be possible? - I cannot understand: Hotmail can prevent our emails from reaching inboxes, but can it also prevent its users emails from reaching us?? Is this issue a Private-IP related?? - What do you think the real problem is, and what advice(s) should I follow to have our emails going and coming smoothly in the future?
Note: We don't send unsolicited emails ever. We only have a 1500-member mailinglist that we send a newsletter to, once every few months.
Our daily email traffic is about 10 to 20 messages in and out.
I am trying to install Magento on my apache server. I am running into the dreaded mcrypt issue as Magento needs it to run. I have now been googling for the past few hours and have gotten nowhere.
Here are my details:
Linux Centos 5.5 PHP 5.3.3 x86_64 Plesk 12
I have tried installing all sorts of different repos and it just isn't working.
When I try to install using # yum install php-mcrypt I get the following:
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Package php-mysql is obsoleted by php-mysqlnd, trying to install php-mysqlnd-5.5.13-3.el5.remi.x86_64 instead --> Processing Dependency: php53-gd for package: psa-php53-configurator --> Processing Dependency: php53-imap for package: psa-php53-configurator
i am a wap develper(mobile web).I need a vps with 30-40 Gigs of space and about 200-250 Bandwidth with cpanel.my bugget is under $35 .Please suggest me one for these requirements.
and I was thinking of going from mpg to avi using ffmpeg. The problem is that swf to mpg ran up with an error. I was wondering if anyone know of the best way to proceed with this.
I am looking at linux vps due to money constraints. Ive had lots of experience with windows vps... its really simple, just use remote desktop .
Is there something similar for linux vps? Giving me a desktop like environment to mess around in? How does that work? Is there a tutorial on how to use one, transfer files, etc.
im talking about using windows XP to community to a linux vps.
To make ASP run under Linux, PHP script files are saved as ASP extensions and are redirected to the PHP interpreter. So it looks like the server serves ASP files, but these are actually PHP scripts.
Can anyone recommend a decent VPS place, need atleast decent ram for apache, mysql, xcache, php, 200 - 400 BW, for hosting about 2 websites. (need them on a separate machine from my others). Good connectivity matters since our users will be mainly from all over euorpe, USA and Russia and former Russian region.
I have Debian Etch 4.0 and am intending to run a LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP) installation on Debian.
I have setup AMP on windows boxes to run successfully. I have very good microsoft O/S skills but have vague skills around Linux which I need to learn quickly for my job. First of all I need to setup a LAMP installation so does anyone have a recommendation of a simple and easy LAMP installation step-by-step solution for me?
I have a dedicated Linux server with CentOS and Directadmin.
How do I get ASP.net on a Linux server, I only could find one that seems something about it, but I cant seem to understand how that will work, and how to install it YEP thats how smart I am.
I have recently purchased a GoDaddy Virtual Server running Fedora 7, with the Plesk Control Panel 8.3 installed - if I had remembered this site then I probably wouldn't have chosed GoDaddy, however my colleague runs a GoDaddy server and it works like a dream. I have only one domain on the site, running Boonex Dolphin 6.1. The site however runs EXCEPTIONALLY slow.
I have spoken with many friends that use Dolphin and they have no major issues. I also did a search on Google and found that there appear to be no major speed issues with Dolphin.
The site I am running is http://www.tkd-web.com
I wondered if some of you guys could take a look and let me know if it looks like a hosting issue or a scripting issue. Or what information do you need to know to find out the answer to this problem.
I would be really grateful to anyone that can even point me in the right direction, as I don't want to go off and start shouting the odds about GoDaddy etc, I just want to find the most effective solution to my issue.
I'm interested in having an unmanaged VPS with Ubuntu 7.1 or 8.04 installed (or available to Rebuild under the HyperVM) from the state of Missouri (should have at least some IPs already available from the region).
I am currently with a company operating out of the Netherlands, however for what I am spending I do not feel I am receiving timely responses to support tickets (I'm talking days with no reply, at all). So, I am looking to switch. My current budget is around $300 USD/mo, however, I can spend more if the deal is right.
I need a host that is not easily scared off by American DMCA take-down notices. Please understand, nothing I do is illegal. In fact, to be blunt, I write software for online games and charge a fee to users who wish to access my software. I was using dedicated hosts within the United States to satisfy my customer base, however, one particular company, Nexon America (just one of the companies whose online games I develop software for) more or less got me dropped by every host I went to. I host absolutely no copyrighted files of any kind, images, textual, video, or binary.
for a project i'm setting up a WDS server for rapid deployment of Windows 2008 servers. The information regarding WDS and automated deployments is clear for me.
The only, and probably biggest problem is how to configure the linux dhcp/pxe server to able to boot an image from the WDS to start the installation.
Unfortunately I haven't found much information about it.
I hope some one here can push me in the right direction.
I currently colocated at Chicago FDC Servers, OUTSTANDING BY THE WAY! Cheap too! But that is not my area of concern, since I already have a colocation, I was wondering if people could give me ideas what to do with it. I colocated because I found them, they offered me an affordable colocation.
I do not wish to host STEAM GAME SERVERs like counter strike.
If I had a ventrilo license, I could host a huge ventrilo, but I do not. Teamspeak is out of the question.
