View 4 Replies View RelatedCan someone show me a tutorial on exactly how to point a domain name to my VPS? Not just a simple masked forwarding, I want it to actually point to my VPS so that basically [url]is the same as [url]
I'm running Ubuntu & HyperVM,
Does anyone know if the VPS tutorial thread (the one that told you exactly how to do everything) was distributed anywhere else apart from WHT? Because of the recent site problems, that thread was one of the lost ones.

If you have a thing or two to teach about managing it, please reply with how to do so and so.
I am at school now. I will get home later and then I can get back to my hobby of teaching myself how to manage a vps. I have a lot of time on my hand to learn how to manage a vps.
Can some nice person please write a good tutorial on setting up the game server cpanel addon?

View 4 Replies View RelatedIve looked for a long time now trying to find the perfect tutorial to migrate my clients (on cPanel) to my VPS without downtime. Every tutorial i found doesnt tell you how to make it so you dont have any downtime at all.
I know you can point the DNS from the old server to the new server by editing it through cpanel but i have more than 100 clients and it would be DAMN annoying to edit every single one of them one by one. Is there a faster way? Anyone have a tutorial that i can follow?
A Short tutorial to use SSH keys instead of plain password to login.
1. Logon to WHM and goto Main >> Security >> Security Center
2. Under "SSH Password Auth Tweak" and disable the Password Authentication.
3. Under "Manage SSH Keys" click on Generate new key.
4. Give a Key name and Generate a good password (remember it). Choose KeyType as DSA since it's more secure than RSA.
5. Once done, you will see a pair of public private keys. Authorize the public key to connect.
6. View/Download the private key to your system. If you're using putty it can also generate in relevant format.
7. Save the key in a secure place in your local system and chmod to 600 so that no one can read it.
8. Next, connect to your server:
Code:
root@localhost ~]# ssh -i /path-to-file/file.key root@server.ip.address
It should ask for the password, if you have used in step 4.
Other manual install Zabbix on CentOS 5.
Zabbix for used a vps, this is a problem?
I'd like to have the ability to offer hosting in two geographical and network diverse locations for both Apache and MySQL. Two entirely different instances, with different everything. ie: high avail to the max. Obviously the MySQL part is harder due to the dynamic nature.
I can appreciate the technical aspects of the question - such as data needing to replicate to 2 locations, dealing with static versus dynamic data, etc. In short, there's a few ways this could be done.
I've not been able to find a guide in my Google searches, but I'm sure this is something that has been setup before.
If you're someone with experience in having had set this up, perhaps it would be easiest if we just speak directly and work something out, either via payment or giving you a dedicated server on my network. My AIM name is IGSOBEHELPER.
Please note that I am hoping to start a technical discussion about this, hence I am not posting the message in the employment section. I hope this is not off topic because of this.
Is there a Windows GUI software for remote Admining servers that run on Red Hat Linux?
FYI: Currently I use Putty for remotely managing our servers.
So if you can recommend a GUI like Windows desktop software for remotely Admining servers running Red Hat Enterprise, I would very much appreciate that.
FYI: we have like 10 dedicated severs, so a desktop GUI that would allow one to monitor/manage multiple servers would be best. But if the GUI that you think is best can only remotely connect/manage one server at a time, requiring disconnecting to connect to the other server to Admin it, that is fine.
Also, I would love to hear what you think is the best book, best tutorial and reference guide for remotely Admining servers running RHEL? I am not looking for one of those books that are 1000 pages, but something that is a few 100 pages and can be read in 1 month assuming a few hours per day of reading.
I would like to know f.e the setup scenarios f.e for one,two or x fence devices.
The below docs just dont contain enough meat to get you going.

[url]
[url]
If you are aware of any good hands on tutorials or docs than please feel free to let me know.
I dont mind if the documentation has no screenshoots but the technical explanations must be sound in order to understand how to configure RHCS.
This can be adapted to other operating systems, for the scope of this tutorial it will be designed for Redhat enterprise / Centos ....

What I've got running:
Apache2, PHP5, MySQL5, Dovecot, Postfix
One of the sites is a growing forum with a MASSIVE photo album. This is the site where I notice the most slowness.
Changing the server software is not an option - Only optimization.

I have Plesk 11.5 (service provider mode) on a Windows 2008 server IIS7.Most of my sites are developed in .asp and therefore i use a custom 500-100.asp error page that check s the IP of the visitor then displays either a friendly error, or if its my IP a full error of what has happened (it also emails me the error). This allows me to debug pages easily whilst developing and to keep an eye on anyone trying SQL Injection hacks on my sites (as the error and email also have session variables and IP address).I dont have root access to the server as it is a Webfusion dedicated server.I have following the Plesk documentation -
1) Switch on custom errors for the subscription
2) Look in virtual directories and navigate to error documents
3) Find the error in question (500:100) and change it to point at either a file or URL
FILE - I had the data centre add in the 500-100.asp error page in to the virtual template so that my page is available in the list of virtual files - this didn't work but that maybe because its not a static page??
URL - when i add the path it says its incorrect, if i add a fully qualified address, it accepts it but it doesn't work.give me a specific example of the URL that can be entered relative to the root as the format in the documentation isn't accepted. The last step is to restart IIS which is also an issue as i cant seem to do this from the Plesk panel..It is as if it isn't catching the 500:100 error, and only catching the general 500 error??
I am currently running Google Analytics/Urchin 5 (v5.7.02), on a server, the server has started to act up, (on its last legs etc) and now I am trying to transfer the Urchin Software to a new server, where it would work effectively.
However upon installing the urchin software on the new server and running it (localhost:9999), I am presented with An Action Items Page, and these following choices
Obtain Demo License
Buy License
Activate Pre-Purchased License
I choose ‘Activate Pre-Purchased License’ pop in the Serial number and complete the registration then…
---------------------------------------------------------
Urchin Licensing Center -- Error!
An error has occured during your transaction, please use the back button and correct the problem. The specific error message is:
• Unable to generate a license. Some possible reasons:
Your serial code is currently active <<< How do I disable it and use it on another server?
---------------------------------------------------------
So all I want to do is deactivate the serial and reactivate it on another server.
Does anyone have experience with this or a similar problem or have a solution to this problem. Any help be most appriciated.
Or even a Contact Number so that i can get some one over the phone!
This is the scenario, domain.com are setup on server1, however server2 also has the same profile of domain.com as we use ns3 and ns4 using domain.com. This works fine with the nameserver setup on server2.
However I encounter problems as the emails from server2 won't reach server1 as there are duplicate profile on server2.
My question is how do I setup the DNS in cpanel/whm from server2 so the emails from server2 will reach server1?
Server1 (www.domain.com)
ns1.domain.com
ns2.domain.com
Server2
ns3.domain.com
ns4.domain.com
I just want to use a server for file sharing, it will have nginx and that's it. I'm looking at centos, or freebsd, but I been using centos forever now and I'm not sure how to use freebsd, should I just stay with centos?
Do I tell my hosting provider to just install the OS and give me ssh action and that's it? Don't install any control panels or any other stuff? I want one domain and one subdomain on it though and ftp action.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering whether it is possible to perform a full server migration to a new Plesk server with the same hostname or will Plesk give an error about the hostname being the same?
The new server would not be accessible by hostname (only via IP) until DNS and glue records were changed after the migration.
I've been developing a small 2D MMORPG lately. I bought a VPS to run the server on a few days ago and sadly it doesn't work so well. Sometimes the loads go pretty high (afaik not caused by me) and MySQL freezes, causing the server to just wait for MySQL to unlock, hanging all the players around on the map. Not a good thing.
Anyway, the game is very small scale, and I'm not planning to have more than maybe 30-50 players online. It does not suck up much CPU, I had ~10 guys online and loads stayed down at 0.00 on the VPS box.
Problem with getting a dedicated is our very low budget. As I'm still underage and living at home hammering my pc and don't have any real incomes, we're talking numbers like $ 30 - $ 50 USD per month - it's really hard to find for that price in Europe.
Requirements:
Monthly payment, $ 30 - $ 50 / month, no setup (or very small setup, like $ 20)
10Mbit/s or faster connection, 100GB traffic should do
500MHz CPU is all cool
512MB or more RAM
5GB diskspace is enough
Has to be in Europe due to ping times (< 100ms)
Linux, Debian 4.0 prefered
If anyone knows where I could get something like this for a low price, $ 30 to $ 50 USD, it'd be great.
I have been searching everywhere trying to find a tutorial but It is not going anywhere. Basically I need to create 2 nameservers for Godaddy and pretty much so when i type http://mysite.com it goes to my site. I can access everything from http://myip and everything works. Now is there a step by step on how to actually do it in the DNS Manager? I need help like what IP address do I use is it the router ip? The external IP?

View 8 Replies View RelatedSite is currently running on a single code single cpu p4 server. Am thinking of upgrading to a quad core Xeon server.
My site is pretty dynamic with lots of hits to php / mysql, and has trouble keeping up with the requests sometimes. Would a quadcore Xeon significantly help?
Server Software:
Windows 2003 Server
php 5.2.6
apache 2
mysql 4.1
Current Setup:
P4 2.8 single core/cpu.
Proposed setup
Xeon 3210 quadcore
I guess my confusion lies in the following:
1. Can win2003 server make use of the quadcores?
2. Does php / apache / mysql make use of the quadcores?
3. Will i see a significant increase in the amount of pages i can serve?
