Which Operating System For Web Server?
I have always used debian on my virtual machine but was just curious as to what OS people use for their hosting?
The company I am looking at moving to for hosting offer the following options:
* Debian
* Ubuntu Server
* Open Suse
* Free BSD
* Fedora Core
* CentOS
* Gentoo
* Slackware
* Windows 2003 Basic
* Windows 2003 Pro
I have heard from a lot of people that Freebsd is good for hosting but just wondering what your views are

Preferred Operating System For Web Serving
I have been online since 95 and I've got a lot of information I could help others with regarding web development and interface design. One thing I'm terrible at is System Administration, but I'm getting better and my first step is to pick a reliable operating system for both the webservers and the database servers. Would anyone be willing to answer the following questions or point me to a thread that already discusses these? A little background, our site has 200k members, 30k active and is growing by about 5k a week. We still run MySQL 4.0.27 on the DB servers and they are running FC2. The webservers are Apache 1.3.37 and PHP 4.4.2 running FC2 and FC4 as well. My questions 1. What OS would you prefer to upgrade to for the web servers? and a "few" reasons why? 2. What OS would you prefer to upgrade to for the database servers? and a "few" reasons why?

Which Windows Operating System To Get For DB Server
to get a dedicated sql server 2005 box and am not sure the best operating system. These are my choices: Windows Server 2003 Enterprise - 32 bit Windows Server 2003 Enterprise - 64 bit Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise - 32 bit Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise - 64 bit This is the server I'm thinking of getting - Dual Woodcrest Series - SATA Dual Intel Woodcrest 5130 Dual Core Processors 2 x 500GB Hard Drive 4096 MB RAM Currently, I have my IIS web server and sql server 2005 on the same machine and it's just too bogged down. That one runs windows 2003 standard 32 bit on a Dual Xeon 2.8GHz Processor 2 x 80GB Hard Drive 4096 MB RAM

Which Operating System
There's bloody heaps of them. Which one do I go for on my two new file servers? Which operating system out of these is the most common, has the most support, is most compatible? The server will be used to host videos and will run c-panel. A light weight OS is probably preferred but I really have no idea. And incase it helps, the servers have 512mb of ram, about 30 - 40GB of hDD (not actually sure) and an old AMD Duron. CentOS Debian Direct Admin Fedora FreeBSD Gentoo LiveCD Redhat Slackware

Determining Operating System (Linux)
Without having all of the operating systems at my disposal for testing, I would like to figure out a way to determine the operating system of a remotely accessed Linux machine. It seems pretty strange though, since cPanel reports both machines I am using as being CENTOS Enterprise 4.5 i686, yet one's uname -a reports: Code: Linux hostsentry.crucialwebhost.com 2.6.9-023stab044.4-enterprise #1 SMP Thu May 24 17:41:23 MSD 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Code: Linux main.7kb.org 2.6.9-55.0.6.ELsmp #1 SMP Tue Sep 4 21:36:00 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux I'm assuming there is a way to determine the OS from this information. Anyone know how?

Conduct Or Legal Operating Practice
I have a ethics and legality scenario I would like to pose here. This is to be considered a fictional scenario and any similarity to any real company or person is unintentional. COMPANY X has colo racks in DATACENTER and hosts a client named COMPANY Y. COMPANY Y also hosts 50 small web sites on cpanel and 40 VPS servers on their linux VPS node in exchange for a discount or other compensation. During the month of may and COMPANY Y's bill raises from being 3000 past due to over 12000 past due to various reasons including purchasing of hds from the DATACENTER using COMPANY X's account, tech work dont by DATACENTER for COMPANY Y needed also billed to COMPANY X's account, as well as BW and rack costs. Seeing this alrming bill by the end of May COMPANY X begins putting pressure on COMPANY Y to pay some invoices as no payments were received during the entire month of may and COMPANY X is also having a hard time paying DATACENTER due to not being paid by COMPANY Y but makes efforts to pay 25% of the outstanding bill in June. Near the end of june COMPANY X has had enough and arrives at the datacetner to attempt to move theritr clients off COMPANY Ys hardware so they can suspend service of COMPANY Y completely. On the visit COMPANY X brings 2 new servers in and begins moving clients of their over and COMPANY X notices this action and begins to suspend and remove access to all of COMPANY X's clients. COMPANY X then decided to power off the boxes of COMPANY Y and removes drives containing COMPANY X customer data for offline recovery. and because they beleived the DATACENTER might be untrustworthy enough to release hardware fromt heir rakcs without their permission. The drives were for as much colatteral purposes as for recoverying customer data. They then pack the drives in boxes and a bag and leave the datacenter having spent nearly 20 hours working and head on a long trip home and signs out of the data center in front of various techs holding the server parts and tools. Upon arriving back to their office/home They were informed that the removal of the HDs was not allowed byt he datacenter because the account was past due and it was discovered that several drives with cOMPANY X's clients were left in the datacenter which COMPANY X now wishes they had remembered to get. DATACENTER is furious and demands the account be paid in full by a fixed time or the entire colo will be cut power. COMPANY X scrambles to find others to help them and another major client who has alot at risk decides to help and a payment of $7160 is made to DATACETNER but it came in a few minutes past the deadline. DATACETNER had suspended servuce, and cut power but stated they wil return service shortly. Shortly after this it is discovered that several servers belonging to COMANY X and two other companies who were supsended in the same day were not int he rack anymore. DATACENTER accout rep responds with the following message in ICQ/AIM .....

Server Became Read Only System
I had a linux server (CentOs 5, mysql5, php5, directadmin). I had problems with apache few days ago, that's why i hire sys. admin who tweak the system (install the PAE kernel), and some more configurations, and during last 7-8 days server work w/o any downtime (before this server had 1-2 downtimes per day-> OOM killer.) Now i had only ssh access (emails, directadmin access - give "wrong password" answer). As told my sys.admin It became read only system. I cann't even reboot system Quote: [root@server sa]# reboot reboot: /usr/local/lib/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2) such few commands work, the most commands that i know don't work Quote: [root@server ~]# ls -la ls: error while loading shared libraries: libacl.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Why Is RAID 1, Just Use A Backup System/server
I haven't yet broken into the realms of dedicateds, although I have a decent VPS and am anticipating the need to get a dedi in the future. Hence I'm wondering briefly why exactly RAID (insert some random number?) is recommended? I know it does something to do preventing hard drive failure, although would an efficient backup system be a decent alternative with regards to cost?

System To Control Server Load On Cpanel
a good method to have processes controlled in the resources they use, in a shared cpanel environment? For example, it appears that the cpanel backup (compressed) made the load skyrocket to beyond 60% cpu and 95% memory usage today, and this server is beefy to begin with. I want some system to kill processes immediately if they exceed X amount of resources or kill processes that spiral out of control (X amount of processes from same user). I'd like to be alerted of this action as well. How can I set this up?

New Domain Name, How To Point It To My Server 2003 System
I have always been using a no-ips service for a domain name. It was really easy with the dynamic update client because I have a dynamic ip. I have just registered a domain and would like to point that to my server also. My registrar says it is currently parked, there doesn't seem to be an option to unpark it anywhere. I have also changed the nameserver to my no-ip domain name. Nothing is happening. I have also googled dns.. If I want to point my domain directly to my server do I need to go and install Active Directory and then dns or can I just install DNS, do I even need to do this?? Seems like a lot of hassle tbh, this is really frustrating me because i'm pretty tech savvy but am completely lost here..

Windows Media Server & Web Server

Web Hosting On Same Server As Game Server
Does a typical LAMP setup for a high enough traffic site(s) take enough resources to affect the performance of a game server? (we'll say 1million page views per day) I'm speaking of say, 2MB of ram, dual xeon 2.8 type machine, with IDE drives. Nothing too fancy. 1 milion page views per day may be pushing it, so what about say, 200 per day? Just wondering if anyone has a setup like this and how it fairs out at the game server end. I'm thinking of moving my websites over to my game server + add more sites over time, but don't want it to lag the game. I know as a fact bandwidth would not be the issue, I'm thinking more ram/cpu. The game I host (Ultima Online) uses very little bandwidth with even 30+ people online. I use less then 1% of my link capacity at most times. I've seen it spike to 5% and that's most likely when I was downloading data.

Network Web Server And Database Server Together
I am going to setup our new database server (call it beta) in our data center. Previously we only had one server (call it alpha) which was web, email, ftp, dns, and database. Beta is taking over alphas database duties. We have a Sonicwall router/firewall as our main connection access point. I am trying to decicde if we should simply connect alpha and beta together locally via a gigabit crossover cable, or if I should connect beta into our sonicwall router/firewall. Beta does not need to be outside accessible at all. So if I connect beta to the sonicwall I simply would not open any ports. What do you guys think is best for performance and the overall right way to do it.

DB Server And Web Server In Different Data Centers
DHas anyone got experience of having a web server and db server setup where the servers are in different datacenters? Is this a viable solution or would the performance of sites suffer too much due to the added latency? The only other problem I can think of is additional bandwith usage but that's not a major worry. Reason I ask is beacause I've found and excellent deal for a DB server and would like to keep my current server for the front end..

How To Setup A WEB Server Which Talks With DB A Server
I have been shooting away a lot of questions on these forums lately, but you guys have been very helpful. Thanks. My problem is this. We are going to get rackspace. Then we are going to purchase two servers. The first (WEB) is a httpd, dns, ftp, smtp, pop3 server. The second (DB) is purely a database server which will run mysql and mssql. The first server (WEB) runs a asp/php applications that need to connect and talk with the database (DB) server. I was thinking of only connection the WEB server to the physical internet through the co-location drop. Then connecting the WEB and DB server directly via a CAT6 cable. Both servers will have gigabit NIC cards. Then in theory in the asp/php applications all I have to do, is point them to the local ip address of the DB server as this should work. Is this a good solution? Will speed be an issue, the delay from talking to the WEB server and talking to the DB server? I was thinking this is more secure, because the WEB server is the only machine physically connected to the internet, the DB server is not. Though, is it true, if hackers compromise the web server, they then would be able to compromise the DB server as well via the WEB server? I am open to suggestions though, and better ways of setting this up.

Using A Second Web Server
in a site to help save some Ram: Use a 2nd server You can use a tiny, lightning fast server to handle static documents & images, and pass any more complicated requests on to Apache on the same machine. This way Apache won't tie up its multi-megabyte processes serving simple streams of bytes. You can have Apache only get used, for example, when a php script needs to be executed. is this Good? if yes how could it be done, having apache and another one at the same time

Web Server
we have 2 servers at different data centres we have successfully managed to have 2 A names that point to 2 different ip's/data centres so if we switch one server off the other is there seamlessly which wouldn't be a problem and is ideal for a website that doesn't rely on a database because you cant guarantee what server you will be viewing, so we need to find a way of having normal mysql replication (master/slave) on both servers but have the slave server hidden/disabled until the master server goes down then have the slave server come to life someway,

Outside my network i can type my WAN IP (72.72.x.x:8080) and see my files. I bought a domain and used zoneedit to assign it to their DNS and am using the Zone edit updater to update my ip because it is dynamic and always changes. The zoneedit looks like its working because my current ip always shows up on the zone edit website..and running nslookup mydomain.com, the current ip also shows BUT when i type mydomain.com in a browser, it says that teh page cannot be found...

Web Server Has Been Attacked
Server info: Windows 2003 box Dedicated server currently hosted at the planet. Problem: It would appear there has been a security breach into the server recently. This morning we cleared off a Trojan, and also a new user that had been created on the server. All of our websites we host (around 200) had been affected. Almost every file had new javascript or links to an .swf, they load in iframes and are very malicious, actually giving any vistor to the site a virus. I tracked down the embed code that I found in most files appended to the end of each file. Below shows up in most .asp, .cfm, .html files (no spaces, just can't paste a url in here yet)... <scRipT s rc=[url] <scRipT sr c=[url] Below shows up any any .js file (no spaces, just can't paste a url in here yet)... document.writeln ("<script sr c=[url] document.writeln ("<script sr c=[url] So I got a script that opens up every file looking for this code and stripping it out. Seemed to work at first, but now all the sites have been rewritten again..... and again. So obviously something is overwriting this.

Web Server Logging
Firstly this question is not related to running a web hosting business, but to dedicated servers hosting our own websites. I was just wondering, other than security reasons, what is the importance (if any) of keeping Apache/WWW logs? Are there legal reasons? If it is best to keep Apache logs, how should we go about this? If we don't look after them properly there will be massive amounts of logs being kept - what is the best way to store them? I know they can be "rolled over" and kept for a certain amount of time, which is the best utility to do this? The OS is Linux (CentOS) and the web servers are Apache and Lighttpd. and should proxy/gateway/cache server logs be kept?

Over the course of the year, I got the students to post their pages through FTP process, but I’d like to add other features similar to those offered by other hosts. We are not going to be in the business to host pages, other than learning how-to. Things I see that I’d like to add and need direction: Email Control Panel – to allow student interaction. 2.0 technology (if you will) Simple Scripts Fantastico I have asked that they install mysql and php and they did.

Running Web Server
I want to start up my web server again. I have Windows XP hosting my web server right now. and, it's slow. Should i stick with Windows, run IIS and use httpZip from Port80? I really like microsoft, and don't want to change and adapt to something else. give me advice Or, should I run Linux I would run Linux on it, but I don't know how. And they have different version of Linux. Example Redhat, Ubuntu etc. Which one should I go for? Also, what do I do if I have a netgear ethernet card? Is that Linux? Is it compaitable with Redhat? And last question, what do I use for security? I'm a hacker, yeah.. I know what all people can do to websites. How do I stop them? DoSing, Cross Scripting, XML Attacks, MySql Injection.. Etc. If a linux fan can respond, that would be nice.

Making Web Server
I was wondering I've been having problems with getting my web server going. I'm using Apache 2 on my Windows XP SP2 machine. I have a Linksys WRT54GX2 router, and I have Charter 3MB Cable internet. I already called charter to see if they allowed web servers and they said they do. I also asked if they block ports, and they said they don't. Now my problem... So, I originally thought maybe charter blocked port 80, so I used NO-IP to work around that, I did port forwarding through that. Well, I used there tool canyouseeme.org and it said it couldnt read any ports i put in. All my firewalls were off and i had my router firewall off. I even put my computer in the DMZ part of my router. I'm about to see if i can connect my modem directly to my computer without having a problem but i wasn't able to a bit ago. Anyone got any clues to waht i could do if nothing changes when i put my modem to my computer.

Web Server Specs
I have been hired to build a web server for a fellow student at school. I am used to building desktops for personal use but this is my first time putting together a web server so I just wanted to verify with you web hosting pros what should go in it. Purpose of server: He wants a server that is capable of hosting a website mostly dedicated to a vBulletin community. He wants it to support a community of 30,000 members with a max of 1000 active users. He is also active in local politics and wants to host some local candidates web pages but I assume since they are local candidates and not very well known and most likely going to be very static pages this wont cause much of an extra load. Limitations:I know the connection is going to be a likely place for a bottle neck but he wants to have a server that is capable of hosting the above mentioned type of load and will upgrade the his connection as needed. Also he does not know how to use Linux or Unix so a windows based system would be strongly preferred even though its generally considered worse. what is the most necessary specs on such a system? I would greatly appreciate any input.
