look at the Combo deal. basically you buy ASUS M2N-LR Socket AM2 NVIDIA nForce Professional 3600 ATX Server Motherboard - Retail and get AMD Athlon 64 X2 3600+ Windsor 2.0GHz 2 x 256KB L2 Cache Socket AM2 Processor - Retail for free.
how's this combo for a windows web server with 4gb none ECC RAM and a 2U case to go with it?
I was wondering if anyone here had experiences with the Pittock over here in Portland, Oregon. We need more space, so we are looking to get a few full cabinets and fill them up with large dell servers. Anyone used them before, how are they? I read a few threads here about them but none of them explained their service.
I am going to schedule a tour in the new couple weeks to get the feel of the datacenter.
Also if you guys have the phone number for the colo guy can you PM it to me, he left me a voice mail awhile back with this phone# but I don't think I kept it.
Let me start off by saying I'm not here to trash TheNYNOC or anything of the sort, in fact they've been fairly pleasant to me sofar. But I'm wondering if anyone else is having problems with the recently advertised E7200 dedicated server special they've been advertising here at WHT?
When I first ordered my server a couple of weeks ago it was delayed an extra couple of days because they were having problems with the E7200 Core 2 Duos getting along with the motherboards they were using - no big deal, I know from experience that the E7200 is a great little C2D but it can be a real booger with certain motherboards. (Some boards still can't handle the new 45nm cores) But they finally got my server delivered and BOY was it FAST compared to my old Celeron 2.4ghz that I had at ExistHosting (now GoGax). I was one HAPPY camper.
Well tonight I come home from a party to dozens of emails from people saying half of my sites are down, email isn't responding, etc. Upon logging into the server I quickly discover that there is an apparent hardware failure of MASSIVE proportions going on. Half of the files on the server were missing, what was still there was corrupt, and almost every basic linux command resulted in a nasty I/O error.

Before Vim completelystopped working I also spotted some errors in /var/log/messages complaining about a couple of bad sectors on /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 so I suppose I could have just gotten a bad HDD... I dunno though something seems weird.
So I'm wondering, has anyone else with this particular server from TheNYNoc been having problems after a few weeks, or am I just unlucky? Hopefully it's just a bad drive and not some weird exotic problem with the E7200 + mobo combination. I don't fancy having to setup my server a THIRD time in the next few weeks. A second time is going to be bad enough.
Dang it, I just had everything perfect the way I like it too.
This box is a dual xeon, 4gb memory server with a dozen domains only. What do you recommend for optimal performance and speed?

OS: CentOS or FreeBSD?
Httpd: Apache wich version?
Database: MySQL or postgresql which version?
PHP: 4or5?
I am still using Freebsd 5.4 apche 1 and php4, so far I didn't see a need to upgrade.
I wonder if there could a distribution which has the best combo setup for web servers.
A server I have runs DA. On this server I switched php to SUPHP. This combo has worked 99% good so far except for one big pain in the ***.
When ever a new domain, sub domain or a pointer domain is added I get a php_admin_flag error and Apache will not restart untill I rem out all instances of php_admin_flag lines in the httpd.conf file.
Code:
Stopping httpd: [FAILED] Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 31 of /usr/local/directadmin/data/users/****/httpd.conf: Invalid command 'php_admin_flag', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration [FAILED]
Has anyone solved this? Apperantely the new version of DA was suppose to fix this but I upgraded DA today and at the end I ended having to rem out all php_admin_flag instances for all domains on that server which = good times.
What will be best combo of those 3 which is main core for running almost any web server.Presently i have latest mysql,apache and php installed,but some people says how that is not good beacuse newest version arenot tested yet well enough.

I've heard of many taking the higher quality motherboards and removing the audio post in order to fit into a nice SuperMicro case. Does anyone care of share their method of doing so? I was thinking a Dremel possibly, but I'd like to gather opinions as I'd like only to have to use this Motherboard as this will be a personal Dev server.
I have this new 160 GB drive that I got from a friend and is in great working order. I can't install it in this machine (I would love to, but one of the ports on the motherboard is snapped off, so I can only plug in one SATA drive in at a time.
So I've decided to put it into my server machine, just an old computer I setup with Linux and whatnot to be used as a network server if anyone needs to put anything on it. Plus, it's fun to toy with.
Anyway, I ran into the problem that the motherboard is IDE, which means I can't plug it into my hard drive... Is there anyway (that won't cost me an arm and a leg) to plug in this new hard drive into an old computer?
Or am I just out of luck? Incidentally, if anyone knows how to replace an SATA plug in, or knows of a cable that can plug in two cables which in turn plugs into the mobo, let me know.. that'd be awesome.

I have a forum that is growing fast ( using 1 webserver and 1 mysql server now), and i am planing to add one more web server to load balance.
What options do i have?
Which one is best for Forum vbulletin load balance?
traffic has been surging lately and is expected to continue surging. i am already on the fastest chipset my webhost has.
current configuration
single server (centos), webserver (apache), single filesystem. many dynamic pages (perl script) but no mysql database. no php.
ideal configuration
multiple webservers (apache), single file system.
assuming my scripts do not write to the filesystem (read only), what do i need to install or do in order to send a request for www.domain.com to server1.domain.com or server2.domain.com or server3.domain.com according to the load of each? it should look the same at the front end. anyone know what i need to get?
Due to our bad connectivity in our actual French hosting provider (OVH), we need to search for alternatives.
Please post opinions about other hosting companies that can give same configurations at a reasonable price, if possible with related experience with them.
Actually -from 1 year ago- we have the following configuration at OVH:
1xDBServer: Intel Q6600, 1x250GB, 8GB DDR2, 100Mbps (not real on a daily constant), Wind2K3 STD. : 130eur. + vat
1xWebServer: Intel Core2, 1x160GB, 1GB DDR2, 100Mbps (not real on a daily constant), Win2K3 WEB Ed. : 49eur. + vat
All days we have traffic problems, with low real bandwith connection, also with poor pings to/from Spain (where most percentatge of our users come).
We need to find a hosting provider with a same or a litle best configuration with the follow requisits:
-100Mbps per server [If possible, 100Mbps dedicated (non shared, without aggregation ratio)], UNMETTERED.
-IMPORTANT: Good bandwith connectivity
-Preferable Datacenter hosted in Europe
-WebServer same config, but 2GB DDR (also can be an AMD), if possible with W2K8 WebEd.
-DatabaseServer same config. preferable with 16GB DDR, also preferable -optional- with 2x or 3xSAS 15K. (RAID 1 or Raid 5)
-Possible upgrades (specially beacuse OVH is the first to launch a server with Intel 25GB SSL drives that are superfaster (look at ovh.fr for model HG2009). Any other has support or previsions to serve SSL Drives?)
-If possible, with X days break of contract agreement (money back guaranteed)
We can pay some more at a month, but on the first months we can't pay more than around 500$/Euros.
to do a standby fail over solution for a web server box. I would like the solution to be automated so that in the event of a failure the change happens without any manual intervention.
I have 2 identical hardware boxes and bandwidth is not an issue.
Awhile back I was scouring the site (and the web) to find a single location where I could learn how to set up a Linux webserver on my Windows machine. I found many great references and tutorials -- bits and pieces of some really great stuff -- but not one single location to walk me through the entire process.
So... I created one!

This blog in intended to assist knuckleheads like me in setting up their own Linux webserver. In it are step by step instructions for VMWare on Windows, Linux Debian Etch, Apache, MySQL, PHP, Ruby, Rails, Mongrel, PHPMyAdmin, GD and more. The goal was to create a real world environment where I could learn how to prepare a Linux webserver, so when the day comes that I purchase my own VPS space, I will be ready to set it up...
This was a great learning experience for me, and I hope a good resource for other newbies like me in the days to come.
Recently I signed up with a new hosts. I am a reseller. I am trying to upload my website - about 155MB. I am only getting 2kb p/s upload taking almost 20 hours to upload.
I tried using a different PC at home (connected to the same internet line) but still same problem. I am not sure what is the problem.
Called my ISP, they ask me to try a few things such as deleting temp files and caches but still no luck.
I also notice my antivirus (Avast) showing - blocked Dcom Exploit very often.
My download speed is fine - getting around 70kb p/s. I am on broadbank 512K download and 256 download.
There's a bit of a project which I am going to be launching hopefully within about a month or so. Its going to be fairly server intensive, and as I don't know what the outcome will be, I wish to host it myself on a few spare machines I have for the time-being.
Now, the issue at this stage is installing all the necessary webserver software and controling it from one page, like a control panel.
I don't mind looking into control panels such as Plesk or any others, but would these automatically install all the software that is needed by the CP - such as Apache, MySQL, PHP, Perl etc?
I'd appreciate if anyone could give me some guidance as far as control panels and web server software is concerned.
