I am currently finding a server which is located in the Europe side, preferably in Germany or Netherlands.
Server with 80gb of space, min of 512mb of ram and 1tb of transfer per mth. 100mbit connection.2 ip is enough.
Hope ircd can be run too.
Hope the price does not exceed 35 pounds. But willing to negotiate.
any dedi server company worth its salt provides a control panel of sorts where you can check bandwidth, raise tickets, etc. Is there anyone who has got a really, really good one that is miles ahead of the rest? I'm wondering what the consensus is on who has the best panel? I want to find the best portal and check it out.

View 13 Replies View RelatedI've recently purchased a new dedicated box and am noticing via phpsyinfo that memory is pretty much always around 87% (It was at 97% used today for a good hour and quite often its at 90+%)
This system has a 1GB of ram, and runs DirectAdmin. There are only 4 sites on the server and none of them are busy sites currently.
I've read around and studied a few of the threads here on WHT regarding high memory usage but I am at abit of a loss on the cause here and what I can do.
I found a few commands to run to help try and establish the cause - After running ps aux I noticed:

I don't really understand the results above, I can obviously see the ps aux shows some high percentage of memory used by some processes -
We are just porting our site over to SoftLayer running linux, cPanel and two Raids (one for DB and one for OS).
What companies would you recommend for Dedicated Server Management?
We would also want this server management company to move the website and provide a suitable level of security going forward.
We do not have the people to manage the server (it is only a few of us plus application programmers). It is just that we need to keep costs reasonable. I do not want to pay more than $100 per month and would like to pay less.
I just purchased a Debian server with a plesk control panel. It is suppose to be online within 24 hours. I have no idea how to set it up because so far I have only used shared hosts.
I need to know the following
1. how do I create the httpdocs/public_html folder
2. is it possible to FTP? If not what can I use for file uploading?
3. How do I setup a MySQl database? Is it possible to do this using plesk control panel? (Shared hosting can do this through plesk)
4. How do I setup my domain name servers? through plesk?
How do I run a virtual instance of Windows server 2008 on my Linux dedi? Do I need to partition the server and create a VPS for this or can I run it on something like VMware? (Please look at my other thread here [url]t=857377 to learn more about my server, its resources and current config.)
Why would I want to do this? Because my primary desktop OS is still Vista Ultimate 64 and I've invested a lot in Windows-based software and hardware--too much to make a total switch to Linux. But, I don't want to invest more than I have to in order to run a Windows server that allows my business partner to access documents remotely or for us to share various files securely and privately and still serve my mostly Windows-based clients and colleagues. I'm one of, well, two people I know who even use Linux (at least at the OS level and know it).
Since my research shows I **can** do this on Centos 5, the responses that would be most useful to me would be those that focus on how I can do this successfully (even if it seems complicate; I can figure it out with help and/or direction) and what to consider or avoid when creating this virtual guest OS on my Linux dedi.
I'm very interested in a dedicated server with the following specification:
Dual Core Xeon
4GB DDR2 RAM
2TB + 73GB SAS 15,000
UPLINK PORT: 1000Mbps (gbit), 5TB of data traffic (bandwidth)
I don't want it in .nl or .de (so please no leaseweb, grafix, ecatel, netdirekt, vectoral, etc)
where to buy server chassis in Europe?
View 7 Replies View Relatedi would like to know if you can suggest me a good datacenter to buy and colocate servers.
I need EU bandwidth, possibly Germany or Notherlands.
Do you have any suggestions?
I could only find 1 "big" provider on the offers section.
I'm looking for a dedicated server for webhosting business. The server should have atleast 1Tb HD space and it should be in EU region. The best prices I've found so far are from hetzner.de. Can you recommed other ones?
View 12 Replies View RelatedI'm specifically looking for a server in the European area since I am from South Africa.
The reason being they will be more or less in the same timezone as I am and they also generally provide the fastest ping times (220ms to a server in Europe as opposed to 350ms to a server in USA).
I will be using the server as our own hosting space and hopefully be able to rent a monthly license for Parallels Plesk so that I may be able to resell hosting space - this is the primary reason for the dedicated server. I would like to know whether getting at least a quad core for this setup is essential or if I can get away with a dual core (in the case of hosting say 50 - 100 different websites).
So far I have been looking at keyweb.de which has a dual-core setup at 79euro installation fee and 49euro monthly fee. Their quad-core setup is 99euro installation and 59euro monthly. One drawback is it seems that they don't install Ubuntu linux (which is the OS i'm after). Another one is that their website isn't very intuitive - I cannot see whether it is possible to bundle Plesk with my order. I do however like the fact that they generally allow torrents.
actually I have my dedicated server with ThePlanet since many years ago, where I'm really happy, but due to recent spanish laws, I need to move everything to a european dedicated server as ThePlanet isn't certificated at the "Safe Harbor directive".
============
This is what I actually have:
2x1024 MB DDR 266 ECC
1 Dell 1600SC Dual Xeon MB DAT54AMB8C2
2 Intel P4 Xeon 2.8 GHz 533FSB (4x2.8)
2500Gb Bandwidth
Linux+Cpanel
============
What I'm looking for, is a serius company (no reseller company) with similar dedicated servers configurations. What I'm looking for is also a 1Gbps uplink connection. Bandwith is not so important, as my monthly bandwidth is only about 300Gb.
I've seen very fast (connection) servers in Netherland but don't know how serious they are.
OVH (apparently) looks also fine, but I've read very bad reviews about them.
Can you recommand me a company or a private reseller for dedicated servers in eastern europe or russia?
Here are my requirements:

-512MB RAM
-10 GB hDD
-50mbit dedicated and unmetered connection with nearly all traffic to the EU and a ratio of 1:1
-good ping and speed to the EU
After being hit by a DDoS (managed to evade it for a while, but it's still painful due to downtimes) I'm looking for a DDoS-protected server somewhere in Europe. I don't care about the exact location, it just has to be outside Canada and the USA. I do not require a lot of traffic - using just about 1.5GBs per day, diskspace also is not an issue, so the main things is the DDoS protection, connection availability and the general level of service.
Searching through this forum, I've found the only possible option for a DDoS-protected being DataPipe (contacted and awaiting for a quote already). Have I missed something else? Are there any alternative good hosters with reliable networks and protection in the EU?
Does anyone have any recommendations for a company that could provide a reasonably priced, reliable, unmanaged server for me somewhere in western europe?
I'll need a reasonable amount of bandwidth, so this is a consideration.
I'm based in the UK, but willing to look at other, more digitally enlightened countries nearby (Norway, Finland, France, Germany, etc) to get a better price since servers are very expensive here.
The server be hosting a big AJAX application so latency is a consideration also.
At this moment I would like to test how is webmin and directadmin;
I read that directadmin is more power but I not want to offer service type reseller or hosting, I want to have a professional manage of my sites;
I have make a posted for to know which are the limits of webmin; every clarification is appreciated.
so I looking for host that can offer a vps with this two panels; is important that the host know good this panels and have a support; so I am not interesting at host that can only install but not have experience;
if you have only one panel send me always your feature;
Any Dedicated Servers within $50 to $80 price range? and where IRC is allowed. US or EU, whichever.

I am interested on VPS 200W.
Requires a dedicated server in Europe.
Requirements:
1) Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 2,2 GHz;
2) RAM: 2024 MB DDRAM;
3) Hard Drive: 2x 250 GB SATA (can be smaller);
4) Traffic: At least 1000 GB or unrestricted;
5) Port: 100 Mbit / sec. (ideally 1000 Mbit / sec.);
6) IP-Addresses: 2.
Mandatory conditions:
1) A great date-center;
2) Operational and anglophone support;
3) Ability to establish a panel, for example: ISPmanager.
Recommended requirements:
1) Protection against DDoS-attacks;
2) The ability to administer the server, a company that provides services to lease (regular updates, round-the-clock monitoring, etc.).
The server is designed for the site, which will:
1) Forum;
2) Video and audio materials (up to 20 spots, for up to 10 minutes each), which can be viewed directly on the site using flash-player or download. Clips will not be frequently changed or supplemented;
3) Downloading developed software, up to 0.5 Mb;
4) Download documentation formats: DOC and PDF, up to 2 Mb;
All audio, video and documentation for its own production.
Additional information:
The number of visitors, initially to 10000 per month (probably much less or slightly more, not yet known) The audience will be visitors from the following countries: Ukraine, Russia, Poland, UK, Germany, France, USA and Canada.
Budget:
up to $ 200 a month. But if such amount is not sufficient for the entry requirements, are ready to revise the budget.
Need a really high-quality channel of communication and operational support, etc. Perhaps for these tasks, you recommend other requirements to a server and placing the territory? Check your real council.
Also look in the direction of affordable rental server and utilization of services: Akamai Technologies. If someone has experience working with Akamai, I ask, share their views. Should I use it for such a project?
A lot of information has been revised to servers in Germany, UK and USA. But the single answer, yet to be found.

Does that mean I have installed GD? I am new to this dedi thingy.
I asked my host to reload/rebuild my dedicated server as I wanted to clear my entire server so that I can used it for a brand new project but I was told that it would cost me $75 per server.
Am I able to engage a freelancer to do it rather than getting my hosting provider? I would also need to change the server hostname from www1.xxx.com to www1.yyy.com and the name server to be changed to ns1.yyy.com and ns2.yyy.com instead of ns1/2.xxx.com. In short, I do not want yyy.com to be traced back to xxx.com at all. I do not want a traceroute, cpanel or other means to link the two site together.
About 4 days back i ordered and got a Xeon dedicated box from Softlayer
BUT i am stuck adding one domain. First i tried making a new account for this domain through WHM but problem was not solved, so today i parked this domain to a domain's cPanel account but after that also problem was not solved
So, let me first explain you whole problem. Suppose my domain is my-domain.com
This domain my-domain.com was added to shared hosting account at ace-host.net. But after purchasing dedicated server, i shifted whole site data to new server and changed the nameservers of my-domain.com with new ones and atlast i removed this domain from my Ace-host.net account.
Then i waited for about 2days to domain to propagate with new server's namesevers. But when nothing happened (i checked the domain whois record, they were showing my new server's nameservers), atlast i contacted Softlayer regarding this and after sometime they replied We have given the correct server alias for your domain my-domain.com in apache configuration and it was working fine that monent.
But after sometime i checked that my-domain.com is loading fine but it is taking whole data (including database and templates) from my OLD HOST ... Ace-host.net!
As i have already mentioned that i have already deleted my-domain.com from Acehost account and also updated the my-domain.com's nameservers with new dedicated server's.
And i checked many times WHOIS records from different websites at that moment. All were showing nameserver records of my new server.
I now contacted PSM and they after sometime replied that its working now as they just had to restart dns server.
BUT NOW , today again samething is happening! (on the 4th day)
so, i terminated my-domain.com's account from my server's WHM. and then parked in other domain cPanel account on same (Softlayer) server but still problem is still there!!
Domain is registered at Namecheap.com
NOTE: I am not saying anything against PSM or Softlayer and their support staff. They are both THE BEST in the market! and they have helped me a lot manytimes.
I also have two more domains on this new server and both are working fine from very first day. They are registered with local registrar not with namecheap.
i've purchased a dedicated box with Plesk webhosting, but i can't get the email forwarding services to work
The domain is registered with Domainsite, set in plesk to forward admin@domain.com to my gmail... and it doesn't work no matter what i try...
First settings i tried( I use domainsite's nameservers and set the dns in there, if you know a better/other way, please reply) blanked out the last 2 chars of the ip just in case
Code:
Record Type Record Host Record Answer TTL Priority (MX only) Create Date
A *.domain.com 84.244.-.- (delete) 300 2007-11-10 07:43:03
A domain.com 84.244.-.- (delete) 300 2007-11-10
well that didn't work, so i figured i needed a MX record
I added:
Code:
MX domain.com 84.244.-.- (delete) 300 10
but it still didn't work( i did wait a few days after each change)
Then i tried the domainforwarder from Domainsite itself
which added 2 records:
Code:
MX domain.com mx0.domainsite.com (delete) 300 10 2007-12-01 12:17:37
TXT domain.com v=spf1 a mx ~all (delete) 300 2007-12-01 12:17:37
but it still doesn't work
i'm also getting mails bounced back with the line: "Reverse DNS lookup for your IP address is failing."
what changes need to make?
Am curious about Wildwest Dedicated Servers and VPS Servers.
I'd like to know for those of you - your thoughts either way on your experiences Good, bad, what you learned while being there.
1. What you like about Wildwest Servers Dedi or VPS
2. What you don't like about Wildwest Servers Dedi or VPS
And anything else you'd like to throw in.
I had shortlisted a few, although there may be more choices..
SoftLayer have lesser discount, but they have an excellent DC, hardware & more~
Gigenet have up to 30% discount and 15% at least, which is a plus, but I'm not sure about other stuffs, although they are also pretty reputable around..
LimeStoneNetworks have very little discount, and their servers are cheap, but their specs are pretty much *fixed*, and they do not seem to offer as much as the above..
HandyNetworks have cheap servers too, but they are not as competitive with the above 3, in the sense that they are not much interested to join the competition, remaining on their own track completely..
HiVelocity - No information, although their requirement is pretty simple..
Take2Hosting, although they have really cheap servers, their datacenter isn't as advanced as the others, and... Cogent... IMO more suitable for personal use, small sites etc.
IMO I will prefer SoftLayer, but their servers are quite expensive, so even if I get 4 dummy servers, which cost $119(their cheapest server) and multiple by 4 is $476, and get a server used to sell hosting, it will not be cheap.. However, on the other end, Gigenet has cheaper servers(especially their specials, really better than SL), although their entry server is $154, which I suppose everything will balance out, I just can't think of anything they can be better than SL, in terms of network, support, server administration(I heard and tried SoftLayer's portal to manage the server, it was excellent!) etc.
I will actually love to resell Gigenet servers, since it is a lot cheaper(in terms of discount), and their prices are roughly the same(except SL RAM is more expensive)..

They fixed it.
Today i got a time out and after 2 reset and restaring of services the server was back again.Then i got this messages and it still coming (3 hours now i get 1 similar message per 5 second )
Code:

Also the firewall stopped the port scanning from a server within the same dc.
I checked it on google and the explanation's varies but most say that is a problem of the router/switch or similar.
I have non-english languages being showed as ? on different servers / vps.
I have tried "yum install french support" which installed but the problem persist.
On one of the VPS i switched to lighttp and the problem disappears.
I guess it has to do with Apache?
I would like share my experience with CreativeVPS/CreativeRACK, I've been around this forum for a while now but rarely post and I never shared my bad experiences but sometimes it is necessary to do so that others would know and maybe improve the service people get. Forgive me if I misspell and the bad grammar English is not my first language.
I currently have a a VPS with Servint which is Great
but lately I felt it wasn't enough and was thinking moving up to a small dedi and yesterday (March 31 2009) I found "[CreativeRACK] Closeouts! DUAL CORE / 2GB RAM / 250GB SATA - $59 (Managed!)" under "Dedicated Hosting Offers"
the offer looked good and Joseph r00ter been around the forum for a while now and has a nice posts counts so I decided to go for it so yesterday March 31 2009 I talked to Joseph on the messenger, he was nice and near midnight(thumbs up to Joseph for working late) I ordered the "last" Intel Pentium D 925 for $59.95+$20 cpanel, he emailed me the invoice I paid it right a way.
I woke up in the morning <--thats how I actually look in the mornings , and saw that Servint had upgraded all the packages, which changed things to me and I decided not to move to a dedi and stay some more with servint. so I opened a high priority ticket to cancel the order, before my morning coffee . the response I got was "Payments made to CreativeVPS are non-refundable as it says in our Terms of Service, which you were bound to when you placed the order..." later that day I messeged Joseph but he said the same thing and that they already bought the hardware *reminder* it was closeout clearance sale server* and that I'm obligated to their TOS that stated that there no refunds.
he quoted "Q: Do you have a moneyback guarantee?
A: Due to the amount of fraud orders we get, we do not offer a moneyback guarantee."
from the offer page.
the worst thing in my opinion is that when I stated that there is no visible link to the TOS on their "Legal Information" page which contained AUP and SLA which did not say anything about refunds Joseph just changed the page.
I can post the entire conversation if needed.
Unfortunately I had to open a dispute with Paypal, I hate doing it and before this incident I only charged-back only once (when RegisterFly charged my credit card and closed their business)
aside the legal part there is a right way to run a business and handle clients, this is not it. you need to be fair and honest. and not just profitable.
I shut down iptables on my dedi to try to install Poweradmin but, when the install did not work (probably because DirectAdmin was controlling files and processes I needed for the package) I attempted to restart iptables by running "/etc/init.d/iptables restart" and "service iptables start". It didn't restart. I restarted the webserver running "/etc/init.d/httpd restart". I even rebooted the dedi. Still, no iptables.
