View 1 RepliesAs I've been reading these threads there seem to be plenty of unmanaged Linux VPS providers (e.g. Slicehost/Linode), but I'm not sure I've seen even a single mention of unmanaged Windows VPS providers. VPSLand, WiredTree, KickAssVPS all are managed. I'd like to know everyone's recommendations on good unmanaged Windows VPS?

Add-on: Unlimited space
I have a domain with 7GB and every day recive an email like this :
The 'domain.com' subscription, owned by user 'Admin', is approaching or already exceeded the resource usage limits:
Web Space: Unlimited / 7249 MB used / Unlimited​
I think plesk need to see the plan and addon to see the correct resource...
I have a Plesk Panel v11.5.30 installed into a Windows Server 2012. Whenever the panel is updated, the filesystem permissions are modified. Group psacln cannot access to several folders like C:Program files, C:Program files (x86), etc. Plesk users connected via Remote Desktop cannot run programs like Internet Explorer or so. Some web apps use Crystal Reports to build reports, and this doesn't work either.
Why does the upgrade process restrict access to these folders? It is possible to modify default permissions applied after panel upgrades?
When I create a new subscription in Plesk 11.5 for Windows, i'm shown the following message:
Internal error: Wrong encryption key size
MessageWrong encryption key size
File aps_php.php
Line237
TypeException
When I try to migrate from plesk 11.5 to Plesk 12.0 appears this error "Backup has wrong signature. Restoration prohibited" and migration is not performed . The Plesk 12.0 is a new installation in a new Windows 2012 R2 server.

I have an VPS Windows 2008 with Plesk 12 and Persits Software like (www.aspjpeg.com).
The Path of software is : C:Program FilesPersits SoftwareAspJpg
I set the permissions :
- Everybody (FullControl)
- Administrator (FullControl)
- Users (FullControl)
All go right, but the Plesk run micro update or check permission add this other account :
- psaadm (Deny All)
- psacln (Deny All)
And then persists Software not work in ASP files. If I delete this permission or change to Full Control all work again, but when have a new update all permission was reset and set again Deny All.
What happened? What can I do ?

Al go right with that entry in (C:ParallelsPlesketcDiskSecurityDiskSecurity.xml)
Code:
<Entry AccounType="1" Account="Psacln" Path="C:Program FilesPersits Software" Comment="C:Program FilesPersits Software"
AceFlags="ThisFolderSubfoldersAndFiles" AccessMask="FullAccess" EntryFlags="0" />
But the last microupdate update the file xml and delete my custom line. The Plesk Teem or Support know how can I set a entry for ever?
I'm thinking this is all I need.
- unmanaged
- Debian Etch
- 100gb transfer
- 128 to 256 ram
- around 5 gigs disk space
- 1 IP
- CPU... within reason but nothing special required
I don't need any proprietary control panels or any of that stuff. I'm perfectly fine and more comfortable on the command line anyways. Just give me the base net-install of etch and SSH listening and I'd be happy from there.
Basically all I want it for is as a backup MX with postfix/clamav/amavisd-new/spamd and secondary bind. Maaaaaybe apache from time to time for a little bit of personal stuff but nothing special. Shooting for cheap here because I don't really 'need' it, it would just be nice to have so I could supplement my other server off site rather than running failover how I currently do it.
I'm looking into purchasing a VPS, and I saw unmanaged are cheaper.
What would I need to know/learn to do maintain an unmanaged VPS?
would like to move to a VPS plan, many has already mentioned that managing VPS is not easy in which it is kinda scary for me! but may I ask what are the main things that I need to know to manage a VPS host.
from my experience on a shared host with cpanel I know how to manage domains, subdomains, backups, traffic-analyze, mysql-databases, myphpadmin, ... etc.
Now if I get a VPS host with cpanel, do I need any extra experience to mange it? if so, what are they ...
What additional services do I get with a managed VPS account? Does it depend on the service provider?
View 11 Replies View RelatedI have a java-based instant-messaging server application, which I need to host on a VPS.
This server application comes with its own Java Virtual Machine.
I do not need any other software than that, no web server, no database, no PHP, no multiple domains or whatever, because that stuff is hosted on another server
So I assume, I will just need an unmanaged VPS. Am I right or is there more to it?
Do I have to install and manage firewall and security on unmanaged VPS, or is that done by the provider?
What about monitoring? Any other issues I need to take into consideration?
do I want a Managed VPS or unmanaged vps?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have read about all of the things you have to do with an unmanaged server, and how beginners shouldn't even try. I am pretty smart though I have a lot of experience with cpanel, and I am not worried about getting my feet wet.
This is the system I want:
Celeron 1.7 GHz
1 GB RAM
80 GB HD
1500 GB Bandwidth
cPanel / WHm
Full root access
How much time would it take to keep the thing running? How do you monitor the server? How do you know when software updates, and patches are available? Can all of the software needed be found for free? What kind of problems would I encounter, and would this be way over my head?
What are the differences between managed VPS, semi-managed VPS, and unmanaged VPS?
I've always used shared hosting w/ a cpanel in the past but I'm leaning towards a VPS.
Of course Unmanaged is much cheaper than full managed and I decided to try with unmanaged plan.
what should I do to run my vps? what do I have to install or somekinds of that?
so my business partner (the IT person) is recommending we go with an unmanaged VPS over a managed VPS....
Now, I'm blonde...so kinda feelin dumb...what's the difference between a managed and unmanaged?
I would like people explain the differences as I am starting to get confused reading each company 'own definition' of manages and unmanaged services.

Obviously there's more to keep it ticking over smoothly so that's what I'm not sure about. I'm going to go for a server at Limestone Networks with cPanel.
I have some experience with servers, have set up home servers in Linux, and have run a VPS for a year (trouble tickets available and Virtuozzo). I do not have any experience keeping a web server up 24/7 though. How daunting is this task if you have cPanel installed?

So i think the best way for me is to buy a cheap vps which i can use for my experiments and learning purposes.
Am i thinking correctly ?
If yes then please direct me to the best offer for my case, or help me to find it.
by the end i hope i will be able to setup vps, use SSH professionally.

My current setup is 1 VPS from knownhost (managed) where i have my wordpress sites and 1 VDS at FDC (unmannged) for static content like images and zip files but i would like to have everything in one place because it would work out cheaper.
So the question is would i be risking too much if I moved my whole site to a unmanaged dedicated sever without having any expreice other than very basic stuff like intalling afp/ddos deflate?
Right now it seems like their isn't anything to it except upgrading the OS or mysql and things like that in the future...
i have just purchased an unmanaged linux dedicated server. i want to run a few gaming servers on it and want to know the best way to go about it.
Now i have only ever worked with windows so this is new territory to me.
Is it easy to set game servers up through ssh or would it be worth using a remote desktop viewer?
Just for my own interest, does an unmanaged VPS (no control panel), normally "ship" with httpd, and mysql pre-installed?

It's really a personal question.
I want a dedicated server but don't want to pay the extra 70 a month for managed solution.
If i don't have much experience with a linux server and can't use windows server because i need Apache mod_rewrite am i safe just getting a dedicated host and not messing with anything but the cpanel?
Most apps i've hand coded so i don't forsee upgrades, assuming it comes with the standard setup.
Why would i need a hosting manager, I think i can learn things on my own right?
Anyone been in my shoes before and went dedicated non managed?
