in a domain environment, how do I enable users to be able to access the Desktop properties and allow them to change their wallpapers. I know it should be a simple one but I'm still looking through policies but can't find what can be. By default/ after some group policy changes, all users are denied from accesing this properties window.
View 4 RepliesI've been trying to set an active desktop of a group of users that log into XP machines to an html webpage. So far I haven't had any luck getting the webpage to appear.
What exactly needs to be done in order for this to work correctly? The primary domain controller is running on windows 200 server.
about policy of softlayer reseller
I am reseller with softlyaer. (not direct client).
in above url, have this item
"Preferential cancellation policy—cancel any time up to billing day"
my billing date is the 14 each month.
04/14 this days, I submitted 2 cancel request,but Softlayer "can't accept"
haha.
I lossed > 300USD because I am the reseller.
have any body same as me?
I dont bash hosts often, because i realize some problems will come up that are out of the host's hands. Network downtime, hardware failure, etc.
Most ive been with, have been very understanding, and willing and ready to remedy the situation by compromise on both the customer, and hosts sides.
I decided to switch my forum to a VPS and decided to go with ZONE.net. They seemed reasonably priced, and ive seen some good reviews here on WHT.
So, this past Saturday evening, I signed up and get the first few payment confirmation emails.
Monday morning, I get an email from my current shared host, that I would not qualify for a refund for that month since it was past the 30 day money back guarantee. I had been with them for 3 months. I had 2 weeks to go so I said ok, it seemed fair.
I email zone.net on Monday to cancel the VPS since it hadn't even been provisioned yet.
Tuesday morning, I wake up to account info from zone.net
I shoot back in email asking why it hadn't been canceled since i would be staying with my host a little longer. I asked them to cancel, and issue a refund.
They quickly point me to their TOS and state they dont issue refunds for any reason. I would be inclined to agree, but certainly these are special circumstances. I asked to cancel my VPS BEFORE it was even created.
I shoot back an email saying that I would be willing to settle a refund, minus the costs of the control panel license, which is the only thing they are out anyway. I have not even logged in to the account. This was all Tuesday morning. I have not heard back from them yet. They are probably ignoring me.
I will not email them anymore, I will not even ask for the refund back anymore.
So, be warned. If you decide to get a VPS with zone.net, MAKE SURE THERE ARE NO HICCUPS, and BE SURE YOU WILL NOT CHANGE YOUR MIND AFTER HITTING THE SUBMIT BUTTON. Oh and expect 48hrs+ of setup time on something other hosts do in 3hrs or less.
If they need to hold on to a customer's money like this, they obviously need it more than me to keep their so called business afloat.
Virpus don't respect own policy..
14 days moneyback is not true. virpus don't refund at all.
servers are overloaded. very slowly and if you ask for moneyback he. just don't answer you
i have buy signature vps with them and on 10 days.
servers have 1 downtime every day. and sometime (2 days) you cannot log into servers or view page because is overloaded.
when your servers back online. its take aproximatly 30 seconde before " website or panel " load.
just think before purshase. virpus network scam her client and don't respect own moneyback policy.
now i wait paypal issue.
I'm trying to establish a policy for hosting requirements.
I keep running into this recurring problem where a company hosts their own site or they want to host with a business associate or friend that has some kind of side business.
This often results in:
• Drastic responsiveness issues
• Half @ss server setup
• No back up mechanisms
• Non-standard setups
I'm thinking of bumping the price on all my quotes by 20% and offering a 20% discount if recommended hosts are used. Another alternative which I would prefer is just to refuse to work on any other, but I don't think I could get away with that.
I try to rent a vps from cheapvps.co.uk today and get this message:
In order to keep security and high quality of our service, all new orders needs to pass our fraud checking screen. In order to pass it, we ask you to email us scanned version of your Photo ID, Passport, Driver's license or your credit card.
Once we receive necessary document(s) we will happily proceed with processing your order.
I wonder any provider still offering Price Match policy?
I saw some before but not anymore.
I don't know anything about CPU. According to BlueHost, they offer 40 seconds of CPU processing within a 60 second period. Our sites are mainly forums and blogs. For the next year, at most, we'll have 200 unique users a day, we're guessing. Do you think running something like WordPress or forum software would be too much with BlueHost's restrictions? We will focus on 10 sites during this time, so it'll be about 2,000 unique visitors a day across our entire account.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently got a Windows VPS from 1and1 internet. I tried to run Windows update and Baseline Analyzer (SOP for me)..but neither would work. I learned that it seems to be Sw-Soft that have taken it upon themselves to test and push Windows updates to the hosts. Is this just for the big boys like 1and1? Or is this something Sw-soft does for all hosts?
Just wondering..say what you want about 1and1..I must say my experiences have improved over the last few weeks..and it does seem like they are really trying harder.
Seems like my IP is blocked by comcast and clear channel. Comcast sucks and do not respond. They have the worst customer service ever. Clear channel is just another monster corporation as well with no concern.

We brought a RootServer with Hetzner after being recommended them. We did research on the service and they seemed to get positive review and the fact we are ordering from New Zealand we do not have to pay VAT.
We ordered our EQ 4 Server on 16/09/2009 and it was provisioned on the same day.
We were billed on the 2nd week of October which was fine. In the 3rd week of October the server exceeded 2TB and therefore it was reduced to 10Mbit/s which is fine.
It's now November and we expected the server to return to 100Mbit/s as per the definition on their website stating the following:
Quote:
Traffic Usage is for free. We will restrict the connection speed to 10 MBit/s if more than 2000 GB/month are exceeded. Optional, a permanent 100 MBit/s-bandwidth will be charged 14,90 € (incl. VAT) per additional TB.
Well of course my monthly bandwidth was reset to 0MB on November 1st and therefore we have not exceeded our usage for the month.
We emailed Hetzner Technicial Support with the following:
Quote:
Our server EQ 4 #XXXXX exceeded 2TB by roughly 650GB last month and was restricted to 10mbit/s as per Hetzner's policy.
It is now November 2nd and our server still remains restricted to 10mbit/s.
Can Hetzner please have a look into why this is the case and resolve the issue?
We received the following reply from Hetzner
Quote:
Your network connection has been throttled. Please contact our product advice.
This will tell you everything about your options.
This was not the response I expected, therefore I emailed their Technical Product Advice team with the following:
Quote:
Our server EQ 4 #XXXXX should not be throttled as it is November now.
Your website states "Traffic Usage is for free. We will restrict the connection speed to 10 MBit/s if more than 2000 GB/month are exceeded."
The Hetzner Robot states our usage is 10GB for the current month. Therefore it should not be throttled as we have not exceeded 2000 GB for the current month.
In turn I received the following response which was very unexpected response by Hetzner
Quote:
if a server is reduced once it stays "for ever" on 10 mbps or you agree paying overusage over 2 TB for the future with 14.90 Euro/TB or you remove traffic intensive application from server.
I have read and screenshot all their terms and conditions and also system policies which does not state any where that I agreed to stay on 10mbps once going over the 2TB/month.
Since Hetzner Online AG operates out of Germany, And since Germany is a member state of the European Union. It is bound by the Consumer Protection Directives of the European Union.
My question is have I interprated what Hetzner are offering/selling incorrectly or they have mislead me?
If they have mislead me then some of following rights and responsibilities apply, these apply everywhere in the EU.
Quote:
If the item you bought does not look or function as it was advertised, or if it is not satisfactory, you have the right to have the item replaced at no extra cost or to get your money back if the replacement was not completed in a reasonable time.
If you buy goods that turn out to be faulty, manufacturers must compensate you for any personal injury or damage caused to property.
When you buy goods or services by post, telephone, fax or through the Internet from a professional trader, you have the same rights in relation to guarantees as if you had bought them in a shop.
If they have mislead me I will be asking for a full refund of my last invoice which included setup costs and have no additional charges added to my account as I will be terminating my service with them asap and start searching for a new provider.

After some yum updates last night one user and group called xfs were created on my dedicated server. Does anyone know what this group/user is used for?
View 0 Replies View RelatedCurrently I have
Umask 027
The problem is, how do I get the group to be set as apache on a file/dir upload? I really do not like having other permissions set, as it can be a security risk, allowing others to access someone else's files.
Another issue is, I can't remove privileges, but I can add them.

I've finally made the leap to upgrading from shared hosting to a VPS. I'm still setting up my configuration before I point the domain name to my new server, but for now, I have the site mirrored and I'm ensuring that all is running well. For the most part, everything is working, but I am running into a few permission issues...
As of right now, all the files in my htdocs directory are owned by root, and I am logging into my FTP client as root. However, I'm pretty sure that this is not how I should be doing this, because I need to allow write permissions to some folders from my php scripts.
I was just curious, how do you you guys set up the users and groups on your linux servers (running apache). I'm just not certain of the best way to handle it. Should I make a new FTP user, and if so, what group should it go in? Should that user be the owner of all the web files? When is it safe to set folder permissions to 777?
APache is running under the "nobody" user/group as default in CPanel servers
as a suggestion I should change it to another user/group to improve security!
But in CPanel servers its hard to do that because you must edit some scripts and files to prevent the backing to nobody when running some scripts such
PHP Code:
/scripts/chownpublichtmls/scripts/enablefileprotect
or when create a new account
Some sites says "the secret of changing the user/group is in the UID/GID of nobody < 100 !"
so I found a solution :
1 - delete the user/goup nobody
2 - recreate it with GID/UID > 30000
3 - run /scripts/chownpublichtmls
so the question is that solution improve security or i should change the user/group to another one! like "www"?
I have just restored an account to my directadmin box and it appears to have restored with the wrong owner / group.
Easy I thought, a quick 'chmod secure.secure -R *' should crack that but how wrong was I.
After running that I get the error: chown: invalid option -- o
Now - both the user and the group exist, so why won't the files change owner and group?
This might be a very broad question, but do they split up IP Address Groups for each region in countries? I know my country is quite small and all, but I was interested to know if IP addresses can be tracked for regions, more specifically in other countries.
