View 4 RepliesI'm running an VPS account running CEntOS 5 and LXadmin, on a Parallels Virtuozzo platform.
I've did some updates and seems like a few services comes up after the update. I want to keep my VPS running low on resource consumptions, so which are the minimum services I have to keep alive? I'm running a SMF forum (so mysql/php), I use IMAP/qmail, spamassasin enabled. I'm specifically curious about saslauthd and xinetd services, are really need to be enabled?
I got this new server with FDC today, I asked for CentOS 5 minimal package installation, when I got the server I checked with rpm -qa |wc -l and seeing 572 packages. I have other CentOS 5 servers running with only 220 packages installed. So I asked the tech to reinstall it but he says the install is as minimal as the default install will allow. it doesn't seem right to me,

My real need is to be able to do this remotely if and when I can't have someone onsite do this to help speed up turning up a server where a client has cancelled, and we are reinstalling CentOS to turn up to new client.
I'm almost certain there is no quick and easy way to do a OS reinstall remotely without utilizing something like NOCmonkey, correct?
I do have KVM/IP so I was curious if there is a way remotely to do this that is possible because of the KVM/IP?
How do you go about getting hardware info so you know what drivers to compile in? I want to build a very small and fast loading kernel for this web server.
I'm running CentOS 5.3
I'm running off of a VPS and the default install of MySQL uses a lot of memory. Is there a way to just download the sources and compile a minimal install of just what i need to run say WHMCS/forum?

Is there any VPS Provider that does Managed Hosting but also as part of that managed service, installs 3rd party scripts whenever needed?
I have been using Future Hosting and they were providing this for me but have been told today that they have changed their policy and will no longer install 3rd Party scripts.
There's a new Wordpress out, so it's a good time to make sure you have any/all wordpress installs updated.
Running this will find versions for every one installed in /home/
Code:
find /home/ -type d -name wp-includes -exec grep -H wp_version {}/version.php ;
The latest version is now 2.0.6
I am needing the following configuration:
2u of space + ~1A of power for a pair of switches at 529 Bryant in Palo Alto + 2 fiber cross connects
Full GigE transport between 529 Bryant in Palo Alto and Market Post Tower (55 S Market) in San Jose.
Anyone have any suggestions for who I could contact that would be able to meet both of those needs for me? Right now, I'm just talking with WVFiber.
A company i am working with is looking to install a VMWare setup comprising of something like this :
6x Dual Proc Quad Core Nodes with 16GB RAM
2x Clustered iSCSN SAN Nodes
I am intending on purchasing the full suite including DRS/HA/VMotion.
Now this is all well and good but the software pricing is absolutely horrendous! So my question to you chaps is :
Is anyone using the latest Virtual Iron or Xen Enterprise in a high end environment?
Obviously VMWare is the market leader, the big boys are using it and its something you can bank on. (literally! HSBC use it ALOT!)
Is it even worth looking at VI/Xen for something like this? The cost would be like a quarter of the total cost of a VMWare license.
Is it possible to use a remote database server on two or more Plesk installations without issue?
Plesk A (192.168.1.1):
Local MySQL (default)
Remote A MySQL (192.168.1.5)
Plesk B (192.168.1.2):
Local MySQL (default)
Remote A MySQL (192.168.1.5)
... etc etc. Is that possible? It'll allow me to create databases on the remote server from both/all the Plesk servers without conflict?
I have a small VPS with Serverways and to be honest I have had no problems with it for a week or so - suprising when you see the spec!
My question is - are there any other providers around the globe (looking for VPS servers all over the place) that would sell me a VPS with the following specs:
CPU 100MHZ
100 MB RAM
10GB SATA (Could probably do with less if needed)
No control panel
100GB Bandwidth on- 100mbps port.
4.90 USD

My [new] host doesn't offer custom DNS records. Obviously, this upsets me somewhat as I need some custom DNS records (mainly A Records).
Would this be possible:
I've got a few servers with SoftLayer. If I pointed my domain to SoftLayer's nameservers and handled the DNS there, could I simply forward everything to their servers from SoftLayer's "Manage DNS" (such as www, mail, ftp, etc), then create the custom DNS myself? Would this work?
Hope that's clear enough to understand!
If not, is there another possible work-around? I need custom A Records!
FastHosts is offering unlimited bandwidth, is this for real?

How to offer hosting is my current dilemma; I can of course refer the client to a host and receive a referral kick-back, but the idea of reselling hosting accounts is also appealing, though I have no knowledge currently as to how this works, and I'm basically just curious how other's manage this aspect of the business. I do not mind offering customer service on hosting accounts, so this is not an issue

View 5 Replies View RelatedAre there any web designers/developers who offer hosting to their clients as part of their website creation package. I am toying with the idea of only creating websites for people who host with me. I currently have a colo server, but only use it for personal things. So I have no experience with the needs and demands of clients in regards to hosting. What are some of your experiences with hosting for clients? Is it worth it?

I use Pingdom "Pro" (or whatever the paid version is to be branded as), and I think it is fantastic. It is yet to let us down or misinform us. It'll be interesting to see whether we see quality dilution from the inevitable rush of freebie accounts.
I have read many on this forum express that people should avoid providers offering unlimited space and transfer.
