I have a file server, and want to build a system that has network-based reload feature. However, I have no idea how to create it. Is there any tutorial to do that? So whenever I need to reload OS for my server, I can do myself, dont need to ask help from the tech in datacenter?

First thing I would like to clear off I DO NOT WANT TO MAKE VPS FOR PROFITS/BUSINESS. I need to make VPS because me and my friend have bought this server
[url]
I want to make VPS because my friend like to use Ubuntu desktop and I like to use CentOS from the OVH website they pretty much give you the basics to make VPSes so I have chosen virtuozzo
So my enquiry is
1. Can I have Ubuntu desktop and CentOS on it at the same time
2. How easy is it to create VPSes using virtuozzo since I need a GUI and ease of use
3. Also if I want can I change from CentOS to forexample Ubuntu desktop too
4. Also does anyone know and good tutorials
My main use of creating different VPS with different OS on them so I can learn there language and other stuff
I want to create from a Dedicated server some vps.
What software i will need ?
Some basic info on how to create a vps offering Direct Admin as a panel?
Cpanel i think is more expensive...
When you create a SSL certificate for www.mydomain.com vs mydomain.com, is the "www" vs "non-www" decided when you generate the CSR (for example, in cpanel/whm)? Or is it "decided" when you actually purchase the certificate?

I would like to create an account for my staff but im quite novice of this and i dont know the directories name
Create a FTP user group. eg: ftpaccounts
#/usr/sbin/groupadd ftpaccounts
Add a new user to this group, and set the default path of that user to /home/user/.
#/usr/sbin/adduser -g ftpaccounts -d /home/user/ testuser
Set a password for the newley created user.
#passwd testuser
Set ownership of /home/user to the testuser and ftpaccounts.
#chown testuser:ftpaccounts /home/user
Give Read/Write access to testuser and all members in ftpaccounts
#chmod 775 /home/user
Edit /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf file and make sure 'local_enable=YES' is uncommented.
Restart the vsftpd service.
#/etc/init.d/vsftpd restart
The server I got from LayeredTech has two hard drives, obviously they set up the first hard drive with Linux etc.
The second hard drive is just there, not showing any partitions in 'fdisk' when I checked, so I assume they just leave it blank in every new server for the owner to deal with however they want.
I've been looking up guides to create a new partition for the full size of the hard drive and then mount it. However, it hasn't been very successful. Everytime I created the partition in fdisk, I have to set a size, and then when I mount it, it only says that the drive is ~98MB big.
Is there a way to partition the drive to its full capacity? And then mount it somewhere on the system? Or anywhere I can go to to find out easily?
I have a old pentium 2 lying around. I was actually wondering if I install a smll linux distro such as DSL linux, is there a way to make it into a fileserver only?
3 comptuers will connect to it.
My main computer and server will use the same internet (ive got a 5MBS line but right now I am just doing an expirment so I dont care if its slow.)
theres a laptop which connects wirelessly using my neighbours (i dont have wireless) so thats a whole different IP and differnt ISP.
and my dads computer which is about 3 KM away.
So I want to do it, store like a couple of word documents
I want to create a forum and have not got any idea in where to start. All I have at the moment is a PhpBB2 template which I would like to use.
The few questions I have are:
1: Do I need to purchase Webspace, if so which are recommended?
2: How would I install the template to the webspace and would the users login information get stored in a seperate database or would that come with the web hosting?
All help would be very much appriciated as i have no idea where to start and how to get it up and running.
I have an AMD Athlon 1.2MHz with 512MB of RAM. I would like to change this computer into a server where to host my websites. However I do not have any experiance on what web hosting includes.
I am definitly going to use tomcat or jetty as application server. Would it be enough this computer? could I just upgrade it? would the people comming on my website experiance a very slow loading?
I'm looking for a cheap VPS with the following requirements:
- Based in the EU
- Unlimited monthly bandwidth
- Price under 50 EUR / month, the cheaper the better
- At least 20GB space, at least 10 MBit, other specs do not matter
- Linux distro or FreeBSD, SSH access
- Good reliability, doesn't mean i want a 99% uptime guarantee, but something that doesn't have too many problems
Preferred locations are near Austria, but anywhere in the EU is good. Also it is a plus if they have upgrade options to better packages if i need it at a later time.
I liked Kimsufi, however I cannot rent from my country even though I can pay by credit card or paypal. I am based in Slovenia and i can pay by Visa debit or Paypal (Visa preferred).
Can anyone recommend a decent UK based ASP.NET host?
View 1 Replies View RelatedJust a general question here but does it put you off signing up with a host if their HQ's are not based in the US or UK?
For example, would you always choose a host based in the US or UK over a host based in India, China or the Phillippines (i.e. English not being their first language as per communication with techs/sales staff)?
We've tried before several times RAM based hosting (where you have all files on RAM disk). Our systems were crashing, but my guess is that we were putting about 100,000 or so files on it and since it was formatted with ext3 (everywhere else we are using XFS) - this was a reason for crashing.
Since we have a lot of bandwdith in our data center, we are thinking about becoming a mirror for CentOS, gOS and some other distributions. I am thinking again about using RAM disk based hosting (you use 1 Gb/s port 100% no problem with it even on CoreDuo level of CPU).
Anybody has any experince, good or bad of running RAM based hosting? I am talking about dedicated, not VPS environment.
i suppose this type of post is common in this forum so i hate to do it but i do need come advice.
I hava a shared host but i need to move to a dedicated host. I'm having real problems finding a host that i think i can trust.....i was considering going with 123 reg....the price is about right....£40 monthly and they're in the uk so support should be easier............then i read loads of bad things about them an decided against it.
I need a dedicated host ( linux) for about £40 a month based in the uk....can anyone reccomend anyone reliable with good support....cpanel would also be good......and do they all have setup fees like 123 reg?
Is there a good one around on the internet?
HyperVM has a nice one.
As you might know if you read my other thread I'm often looking for VPS servers (at the moment Linux only), based around the world.
This weeks challenge for me is a china/hong kong based VPS, nothing too fancy, its only going to be used for small websites and as a proxy service for when we run ranking reports for our SEO clients.
Requirements
- English support if possible, although we do have some Chinese speakers in house.
- 128mb ram, 2gb disk space, 20gb transfer/mo
- CentOS 5 preferred, but any system with a working Yum or similar will do.
Budget
up to €30 a month, but could go higher if i had to.
Payment
-for various reasons we cannot use paypal at the moment, so even if its just paypal credit card processing they won't let us use it. This is something we are looking to solve but its not my dept so i'm stuck with it.
- We can pay by Visa Credit or Visa Debit cards, and if we really had to, bank transfer, but I'm told transfers to china are sometimes very tricky to get right.
I have had a look through the VPS offers forum but most of the china-related posts are from 2006 or so and so aren't relevant anymore.
Can I have a list of hosting providers that are equipped with SAS drives. Shared and Reseller hosts.

I have a dedicated business III linux root server (CentOS + Plesk) with 1and1.co.uk and have two domains purchased through them. What I want to do is set up resellers and then the resellers can point their own external domains to their reseller packages. To test the process, this is what I have done...
In the 123-reg.co.uk control panel (where I have my own list of domains), I change the nameservers from ns/ns2.123-reg.co.uk of example.com to ns59/ns60.1and1.co.uk and then proceed to set up web forwarding to my servers IP. Now, after setting up a reseller account through Plesk, I log in and click add the domain example.com. After waiting 24+ hours, when I type in example.com, I get the 'address not found' message through my browser. Clearly something is not set up right.
The only way I can host external domains is to use the domain control panel in the 1and1 screens to transfer an external domain to my root package - not an efficient way of setting up a reseller account.
Does anybody have any guideance on where I am going wrong? Do I need to set up my own nameserver for reseller clients to point their domains to?
I want to set up my server (a linux dedicated server) to automatically create daily backups of the pop3, mysql, & webfiles. I want it to go to a server which i have purchased with the exact same specifications.
I am not very good at unix command line/scripting. So what I need is for someone to help me define the backup strategy, select the scripts, and tell me of how to make sure backup server is secure.
I would like to create custom nameservers for a Server i just purchased. I seem to be getting unclear messages from my Host & Domain registrar on what the process should be.
I have [url] registered. i would like to be able to provide [url]& [url]etc. to clients to use as nameservers.
i have no other servers hosting nor do i have a DNS created somewhere's else? what should be the process in getting these created?
Do i have to have full root access to create a SSL certificate, it seems if not i have to pay my the host $10 to have it setup for me!

Now,I would like to create an alias/sub-domain for this URL. For example:
[url]-> [url]
[url]-> [url]
how this can be done? Do I have to create a subdomain for this? But when I try to create a subdomain throught the OLM control panel, it asks me for the real path i.e. '/var/www/html/subdomain_folder' which I don't have in this case. Secondly, can this be done without modifying any information in the DNS? Changing DNS costs be $5/change from OLM
I've created many vpn connections in the past using private ip addresses allocated automatically but I haven't really found much on making a vpn server that hands out a dedicated ip address.
The problem:
Basically, I have Windows Server 2003 x64 Enterprise and an extra public IP address that is unblocked from the internet. I have a private server (Windows Server 2003 Enterprise R2 i386) sitting here at home that is behind many firewalls (both my isp and my own) that controls my x10 light system, etc.
I have custom written software so that within my home network, I can goto my server's IP address via a web browser and http address and bring up a control panel that controls my lights, etc. Everything works great, but when I'm on my mobile phone, I cannot access this nice control panel because it is on the internet outside of my home network.
I am wondering if there is a way to configure my public web server to act as a VPN server, accept public requests from this IP address and forward them onto my private home server that would have a vpn established 24x7. I haven't found much documentation on doing this, and I'm not entirely sure what to search for.
I have a dedicated server with no control panel. I have a main, root FTP account. But now I'd like to create an FTP account with access to just one folder.
For example, I want the FTP account to only be able to view and upload files only to "mysite.com/special/upload"
It would also be nice if the new FTP user could only modify/delete the files that he uploaded.
I have recently bought a dedicated box and want to run some gameservers on it. I know how to install server at all with hldsupdatetool. But the thing I need to know: what is the perfect command line to get 1000FPS constant server with pingbooster and cpu priority.
./hlds_run -game cstrike +maxplayers 11 +map de_dust2 +port 27015 -autoupdate - I DONT KNOW THE REST TO GET GREAT SERVERS ( i know +sys_ticrate but not the value to add after this.. )
Just curious what the benefits are to:
- creating your own nameservers on your dedicated server
- using your datacenter's nameservers
- using your domain providers nameservers
I'm wondering if using your own nameservers uses server resources, so it might be best using your datacenters nameservers?
