View 1 RepliesWhere can I find free web hosting that supports Php?
Basically so I can have my viewers post me form messages on my website to my email?
Also which is better to use Php or .asp & whats there differences?
I would like to know how I can find out who hosts a particular website. I checked the whois info at whois.sc but it did not provide the host. Is there another way to do this?

I can see thousands of free webhosts, many of which even don't put ads, and still support Databases, custom domains, even unbelievable bandwidths. Still, how does premium webhosts remain at the top? Or what is the problem with these free hosts?

I need this hosting for a non-profit that I'm doing a website for, and need 1 MySQL database with it. The site will not require huge amounts of bandwith by any standards so I'm looking for good quality free hosting for this organisation so they don't have to spend the extra bucks.
I am looking to get hosting for site that I want to build. At the moment I am looking for shared hosting. Things that I need from the host are unlimited MySQL databases, Unlimited Domains/Sub-Domains, 5GB Disk Space and 10 GB Data transfer. My budget is about $10/month. I know hostgator provides 1 month for 1cent after coupon. I know hostgator oversells but their plans meet my requirements and from what I have read here they aren't too bad. Are there any other hosts that provide the first month for free or close to free, I would like to try out the hosting service for a month to see for myself how they are.

Should we change the hostname? Should we change the main IP? Submit a ticket with the DC? (This'll be faster, thats a last min option)
hostname: piper.bluepipes.net
IP: 208.53.131.149 (i think)
how can i do a search for all files (probs using regex) of files consisting purely of numbers?
for e.g. find:
53243.php
24353.php
24098.php
(always have 5 numbers).
seems one of my accounts has had some script run which generated a bunch of these in various subfolders, and the php file basically does a callback to www3.rssnews.ws and www3.xmldata.info, which seem to be some sort of spyware servers.
I was in the market for a new dedicated server after a couple of years with my previous provider. The previous provider did nothing wrong but they were no longer competitive when it came to CPU and memory.
I moved first to geekrack. And I left them after a week and a half as they never were able to get my rDNS records setup.
I found Universal Hosts on this forum and gave them a shot. I had asked for an operating system that they didn't offer normally (Debian 64 bit) and they said that they could do it. However, when my server was setup it was 32 bit Debian instead. They apologized and had Debian 64 bit setup less than 24 hours later.
When I asked them to get rDNS records setup it took a few hours but they were setup correctly and they worked.
Universal Hosts is also a BurstNet reseller but compared to my other attempt at using a BurstNet reseller they are fantastic. While the initial config was incorrect they worked quickly to fix it and were very professional about it.
So after two weeks - so far so good. Keep up the good work UniHosts!
I am running Apache2.2, PHP5.I have been running with virtual hosts on a Windows 7 environment fine for a couple of years successfully, but have just had to move to a Windows 8 environment.It looks like Apache and PHP have installed and are working fine, but my Virtual hosts are now not being recognised. From what I can tell, it is the Windows 8 hosts file that is having a problem, as it looks as though it is now just setup to Block websites.
If I make the host file just have the one line127.0.0.1 localhost entry, then the very first Virtual Host from my apache config file will come up, but the rest are not found.If I put the usual 127.0.0.1 mywebsite.name aliasname is appears as though my website works momentarily and then is blocked..
Do you think if a company offered free web hosting and free domains people would snap them up like there is no tommorow?
Also does anyone one how much ICANN acredited registrars pay ICANN when they register a new domain?
any feedback would be great!
Simplehelix offers a 128/256 bit RapidSSL Certificate for just $99.95/year. In addition, this certificate comes with a year of dedicated IP address with free installation.
Do you think the conditions are normal?
Recently I stumbled along a host on here with a good rep and that uses direct admin.
Because they were very nice on the live support I signed up to see what direct admin was like.
Its very diferent from cpanel. Some parts seem to be harder to use like the phpmyadmin requires the username and password to the database you created not the control panel username and password like cpanel. Although I guess that could be a good security feature just in case some one gets into the control panel they can not get into the phpmyadmin, then again if they are smart and were able to get into the control panel they could get into ftp and look what the username and password is on the config file for the script you are using.
The bandwidth meter seems to be better in direct admin although I think its acting up for me as its putting yesterdays bandwidth on todays. I was told by the host that it updates every 2 hours and at first it did but now its gone to every day. Oh and unlike cpanel this bandwidth meter includes bandwith used by the control panel.
Niether one from what I can tell counts sftp though at least for the hosts I have right now.
I can't seem to figure out why this is not working. I want to cd into a directory and only compress certain files. However, what I end up with is a file called ..tgz (I am not sure why it is adding that other dot).
Here is the command line:
find . -mmin +1 -exec tar czf {}.tgz {} ;
I have a CentOS web server at my company. It's dual opteron. That server also acts like a router and I have about 5 computer are connected to that router. My web server has been slowed and can i find out who is using my bw ?. Those 5 computers has only local ips (10.10.0.x).
that my website is just for me, no one else know that website.
I cancelled a VPS ages, ago, and they stopped charging me, but it's still up, and I can use it. I emailed them saying they hadn't stopped it, but they haven't replied in 2 days. Should I just keep using it?
Think I might just set up a CS server and leave it
Someone posted some code similar to below, I made modifications or two after trying to detect PHP "nobody" users, after dumping a few printenv I found PHP exports PWD when calling an external program such sendmail. Basically the PWD will show the user directory that is coming from, which is enough to detect who is sending SPAM even as nobody! It's not 100% secure in that they could wipe /var/log/formmail but I don't imagine any spam will notice the logger, they presume any cPanel server (or other CP for that matter) is the same.
mv /usr/sbin/sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail2
pico /usr/bin/sendmail (paste the below code into it)
chmod +x /usr/bin/sendmail
echo > /var/log/formmail
chmod 777 /var/log/formail
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
# use strict;
use Env;
my $date = `date`;
chomp $date;
open (INFO, ">>/var/log/formmail.log") || die "Failed to open file ::$!";
my $uid = $>;
my @info = getpwuid($uid);
if($REMOTE_ADDR) {
print INFO "$date - $REMOTE_ADDR ran $SCRIPT_NAME at $SERVER_NAME";
}
else {
print INFO "$date - $PWD - @info";
}
my $mailprog = '/usr/sbin/sendmail.real';
foreach (@ARGV) {
$arg="$arg" . " $_";
}
open (MAIL,"|$mailprog $arg") || die "cannot open $mailprog: $!";
while (<STDIN> ) {
print MAIL;
}
close (INFO);
close (MAIL);
i want to know more about there service.
does any one work with them?
i need more review about them.

i run LAMP
also,i m looking for a specific cron right now (xbt_cron).once i find it ,what command do i use to run it manually.its supposed to run by itself..i just moved to a new server last week and now its stopped working.
I tried searching for it on google but couldn't find any server company offering VPS using Litespeed instead of Apache. Yes, I know that Apache could be optimized, but would like to try a VPS or dedicated server with Litespeed, just for testing and learning to use and troubleshoot Litespeed. Does anybody here know of a supplier? I would need less than 10 gigs, 250+ Ram as well as cPanel.

For example, my host says ffmpeg is in usr/bin/ffmpeg,, how do I find /usr/?
Here's my situation:
I run a site that does a lot of transfers AND uses a lot of CPU resources. I think I would like to get two different hosting plans to deal with these different patterns of usage, but where can I find a good host offering lots of bandwidth that is content to have it actually used? I've been with DreamHost for a while but they don't allow "data archiving" or whatever (and I have arguments against their claims but it's neither here nor there). So, really, where the heck can a guy find a good host offering plenty of space and bandwidth? Keep in mind I need pretty much no CPU power with such a plan; the web server can be stone cold stupid for all I care, as I can just get a VPS to run the CPU-intensive part of my site!
I was wondering how you guys go about finding a host?
Where do you do your research?
What forums do you use?
What else do you do in your process before finding a web host?
Do you subscribe to newsletters or web host magazines?
Weve got a server where the /var is setup at 7gb, which is now %100 full.
Weve deleted the common logs we always notice, but thats only gotten us down to %94.
Anyone have any ideas what we should be cleaning or a good script that might help?
seems 5.5gb of data is in /lib
What is safe to delete from /lib and why is it taking up so much space?

Assuming that one was to get a local office in a town, how would someone find building or area that had a high availbility of fiber nearby, but was not a datacenter? Are their fiber maps for each big city? Does anyone have fiber maps for Houston, Texas? I would be interested in seeing these maps if possible.
