        Is it normal for a ton of packets to be dropped? My server goes so slow after it gets a bunch of connections, even if I kill everything (i have to restart), and I can't figure out what the problem is. on my other servers it says no packets were dropped. how can i fix this?
ifconfig eth0

        I just wanted to check with you all to see if you have experienced an issue with cpanel that drops the www when you access directories and if so, how did you go about fixing it.
For example - if I were to go to - www.domain.com and then access a sub like /test - it would show up as domain.com/test - dropping the www.

        I currently have my own dedicated server located with the following prefs;
Linux: CentOS 4.6 (final)
Kernel Version: 2.6.9-67.0.15.ELsmp
I know this is possible, but I am seeking how to drop empty udp packets automatically with iptables.

        I have been getting ddossed for the last month, my host has tried many things on my server that are commonly suggested around here, however we have over 40 000 connections hitting the server from this attack and it keeps rising.
I am on LiteSpeed.
I also have NetScreen 50 firewall which helped for a little while, however the server still keeps going down.
I am spending $420 a month on my hosting for my dedicated server
Now it is costing me an extra $400 a month to have Netscreen firewall running which is a waste of money as it can not effectively keep the server running and i'm not sure if I can even effectively afford that much money a month, however I might need to spend a little more if need to just get the server running finally.
basically I need some options as to what I can do.  I would like to stay with my host, they have been good to me, however if my options are better suited to changing then let me know.  I just really need to get my server running great asap and to keep it running great when i'm away from the internet.

        after putting up a very simple email program and having it email me a set of text, it looks like it is not a software problem, but something to do with the IIS email server.  Has any one ran into this?

        ip_conntrack: table full, dropping packet
What does that error mean?  It's related to iptables right?  When I do this  cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max, I get
65536
I increased it 
131072
Because someone recommended me this number because I have 4gb of RAM.  But I still get the table full errors or 
host kernel: printk: 500 messages suppressed
What should I do?  Should I keep increasing the number?  How do I know how much I can increase it by?

        I have 2 identical boxes with FC6 and the same settings and almost the same amount of traffic.
Kernel is 2.6.20-1.2925.fc6 SMP
One is running without problem. The other become slow after few days and from errors I get this message:
nf_conntrack: table full, dropping packet
The table do not clean up automatically as reboot solve the problem. How to flush nt_conntrack table without reboot?
The limit is 65536, setting it double seems to solve the problem but I'm not sure it is the way to go.

        I own my domain [url] and have a reseller plan on a shared host [url]I have the DNS on godaddy pointed to the nameservers of reyox and on the Cpanel of my domain at reyox I have a forwarding account [url]set to forward to my gmail account.
To the best of my knowledge this has worked flawlessly for years but recently I have been starting to not receive emails from people. I found out when I wasn't getting replies I had been expecting and when I inquired or called the people instead they told me that hey replied... it's been happening over and over again lately.
When I asked my host last week they replied: "We did clear up some mail issues last night, some issues with the queue processing."
However after that it kept happening and now I am at a loss.
I don't know what's wrong nor how to troubleshoot it... It happened with people that are on all sorts of domains (gmail, aol, personal domains etc) and it happens sporadically...
It's really frustrating because I don't know what else I am not getting considering that every other day I find out about an expected email I didn't get.
The werid thing is that none of the senders whose emails got lost reported that they received a bounce issue...
how I can address this in terms of troubleshooting it and finding a solution?
Is there some sort of email monitoring services like there are site uptime monitoring services?

        I normally order SFPs from MemoryDealers.  I've seen their prices nearly double the past 6 months.  Is there any reason behind this (component pricing) I'm not aware of?
Are there any other good third-party SFP suppliers?

        Today I wanted to configure server for colocation and I went to both HP and DELL, and everything was ok until I started to configure HDDs. Price of regular 1Tb HDD is about $500 on both DELL and HP, while same drive costs $84 on newegg. Whats the catch? I mean processor, RAM, and everything else has normal prices, but HDDs are 6X more expensive than normal price.
Do you know any good site where I can configure server and order it to colocation address. Also it must be very cheap  ? Best would be if I could order components from new egg, send them to company which assembles everything and then send it to DC.

        We all see this and not just in the hosting industry. Prices like 7.95$ or 5.99$ or 1.90$. They mean just 8$, 6$ and 2$ on the excel sheet plus come cents more or less.
But for the customer he prefers to see the first digit only, just the 7 instead that he know hes is almost paying 8$.
Now, do people actually think this has some effect in the customer?
Do you think a price like 7.95$ actually looks cheaper then just a straight 8$ for example. 
I know then when i look at such an price i just round it directly to 8$ so i that trick doest work on me and im sure it doesnt in allot of other people. When i shop online i just calculated all the products rounded directly so i get a higher price of what im paying. On the checkout i save just a little cents but i know i paid basically an exact number.
Now my discussion was to be able to know in what benefits and or hurts to use those prices for a company. Do people prefer decimal prices or do they just prefer a straight price. And why instead of 7.95$ people dont just use 8.20$. The price is basically the same, 8$ for the viewer or shopper but you are still making 20 cents more that the customer doesn't, care instead of actually losing 5 cents in each transaction.

        Shared rack space is $30/month per 1U and that includes power, cooling, and 8 ip’s.
Burstable to 1Mbps                 Overage
100Kbps = $35/month            $350/Mbps
256Kbps = $75/month            $300/Mbps
512Kbps = $125/month          $250/Mbps
1Mbps     = $180/month          $180/Mbps
What do you guys think of these prices?   
Are they standard or should I look for a better deal?

        I am considering adding offsite secondary backup servers in house on a full T1 (multiple? or a fractional T3?). Servers will be located in Ontario Canada. Does anyone know the average, upper, and lower cost for a full or even partial T1? I am trying to go as cheap as possible since the line probably wont be used unless the datacenter looses service.
If anyones had any experience with T1, as far as price, reliability, best providers etc

        Just finished a conversation with a friend and business partner. He wondered if the the prices of shared plans will increase. My position was they would... or at least many companies will increase it withing the next few month.
 
My arguments is there was a pricing war since 2005 and many dropped their prices close to zero. Now the dollar is weak and there are many other reasons prices of shared account go grow.

        I am currently hosting with WebNX. I have been a happy customer with them, but in this economy it is important to pinch pennies. I was paying $600 a month after a discount. I am a low maintenance customer. In 6 months my only customer support ticket was asking where remote reboots can be requested (I never have needed one). Here is my current setup:
Server 1
Dual e5440
16GB Ram
2x 500gb Sata II w/ hardware raid 1
cPanel
Server 2
Dual e5440
16GB ram
8x 36gb 15k rpm SAS w/ hardware RAID 10
Other services
4TB pooled BW
Servers connected with a cross connect.
8 IP addresses (I think)
I am looking for servers with similar specification, but specifications do not have to be exact. <<snipped>>

        Like if you try to make your own server, it would cost a few thousand right? Or bought one from IBM or something. If you rent a server, it could cost you like double that I notice or even more in a period of a year.
I was looking at the prices of Xeon 5420 and they are like only 400 or something.  Motherboard, ram, hdd's shouldn't amount to too much right?
And companies are charging like 50 bucks a month for a 2 gigs of ram.
Or am I actually looking at this wrong and actually am looking at desktop components?  So is bandwidth the cost for these prices?  In the long run aren't people being ripped off?

        I'm wondering what kind of prices you would be looking at for some private data center space, maybe in the InfoMart or one of Internaps data centers - somewhere in Texas though, preferably Dallas.  Is there any kind of rough monthly price I should expect?  Maybe a standard per sq ft charge?
Also, if you rent a private "suite" does that include office space, or would that still be needed separately?  How much would it be to get a small (100 to 500 sq ft) office in the infomart?
Cabinet Suite (Internap only it seems), and private suites would be considered.  Possibly a cage or private rack, but not preferred.
