I'm upgrading to a new server but when I change IP's on the nameservers I dont want to have data loss due to DNS cache, so I want to forward the old server IP's to the new server IP's, how do I do that?
View 1 RepliesWe are interested to buy different C class IPs so we can host many related sites on the same server. Our hosting provider does not sell different C class IPs. I wanted to know if there is anyway to buy IP addresses from somewhere else, lets say from other hosting companies, or private providers, who would forward the IP to our server. Did you ever hear of such service?
Does any one want to offer us this serivce?
Site is currently running on a single code single cpu p4 server. Am thinking of upgrading to a quad core Xeon server.
My site is pretty dynamic with lots of hits to php / mysql, and has trouble keeping up with the requests sometimes. Would a quadcore Xeon significantly help?
Server Software:
Windows 2003 Server
php 5.2.6
apache 2
mysql 4.1
Current Setup:
P4 2.8 single core/cpu.
Proposed setup
Xeon 3210 quadcore
I guess my confusion lies in the following:
1. Can win2003 server make use of the quadcores?
2. Does php / apache / mysql make use of the quadcores?
3. Will i see a significant increase in the amount of pages i can serve?
I have a collocated server which I'd like to do some upgrades to. I'm having it shipped back to me so that I can do the upgrades myself. However, since I use this as my primary email server, I need help setting something up so I have no email downtime.
I have a cheap shared hosting account with DreamHost so one idea I have is to point the domain to their servers and handle things through there for a bit. This seems like the "brute force" way to do it though since I have to wait for DNS propagation and what not. Another idea was to use a service like DynDNS' MailHop BackupMX which does storage and forwarding. However, this service is kind of expensive ($30) considering I'm only going to use it a week or so.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a Win2003 dedicated server (with The Planet) that i use to host a large IPB forum site.
I got it about 3yrs ago and as I was a complete newbie to server management I got Plesk CP installed so that it would take care of all the SQL, PHP and mail installation and setup in one easy go.
I've since found Plesk for Windows to be a complete waste of space.. but it's still on there and has never been upgraded. I don't actually use it as a CP.
Similarly PHP and mySQL have never been upgraded.
Now I've got to the stage where, to upgrade the IPB forum software, I need to upgrade PHP and mySQL.. but looking at the installation, they seem to be embedded in the Plesk installation. They're inside the SWSoft/Plesk/ folders and none of the ini or config files appear to be in the places you'd expect them to be.
My question -
Would these upgrades be simple?? A case of just running an update package?? Or is the fact that PHP/mySQL are embedded in Plesk mean that it'll all mess up?
I'm worried that a failed upgrade will knacker the forum, which is why I've delayed for so long.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am having a pretty weird problem about ip s at my server. I have a dedi at netdirekt and they gave me like 4 free ips,
all of the sites are at main ip, but today i created a new account and also add 1 of those ips to server and i changed ip of the site.
After that problem started, when i try to ping site it shows ip of the site (new ip), but it gives request timed out. Also sometimes it says, 89.149.218.46 : Destination host unreachable.
If i change the ip of the new site to main ip, site loads well but when i change it to new ip it doesn't load plus gives that ping problem
How to add an IP adress to CentOS server?

How can I add secondary adress using SSH?
What command?
i just got a 2nd server
i had a problem at the beginning that i had to reload
so i think the tech forgot to add my other ips to my network card configs
i remember layeredtech once reloaded my server and the same problem happend so they advised me to add it to a config file in my server
My story starts with my getting burned by fumiNET (the first *grrr*)...
Burstnet reactivates my server (for an additional payment of course). The server seems fine but I thought that I might do better with a BurstNET reseller (better service). So...
I sign up with a reseller, and since I got my new server I've been plagued with email bounces, rejections, etc. Seems that my server (via the reseller) was supplied with a bunch of banned IPs (in other words, crap IPs). (the second *grrrr*)
I've reported to the providers abuse department, but was told that I have to handle this. (third *grrrr* - or is it just continued from the second?)
I've had it. I'm ready to fold up shop. As it is the sites keep me busy - but then...
- I get screwed by fumiNET (losing a big chunk of money)
- the hassle of trying to get my fumiNET server back up (thanks BurstNET)
- transferring to the reseller for better service, and finding out that perhaps BurstNET service was better than the reseller's
I'm open if anyone has suggestions. Some that I've come up with myself...
- finding yet another server provider (recommendations welcome)
- drinking large quantities of Guinness (worth it regardless)
- pulling the plug on the server and getting shared hosting to hold some minimal content
- forgetting the whole damn thing and getting a job as a [pick one]: store clerk, street cleaner, used car salesman
How to view all ip on the server ?
os linux
I want to change whole server IPs. I use cPanel.
I have main IP used for first nameserver and client sites, and second IP used for second name server.
What steps I have to make if I would recive 2 new IPs from my Data Center?
I have DDoS and my DC said that they can only change my IPs to new.
Is there a limit to assigning maximum IPs on a server.
I am not using any contro panel (plesk or cpanel).
Due to some of my projects I am looking for a good Dedicated server hosting provider who can offer Muliples IP addressess from different IP Pools.
View 14 Replies View RelatedWe require a server with 10+ IP addresses (Each one with a separate OS and external IP Address, i.e myip.dk)
This is to be used as an added security level for our employees logging into our system from outside the office. Our system monitors the IP Address and we need to restrict access to certain items depending on the IP. We basically would like to set up multiple VPS on one server.
Can you confirm how this would work?I know we can buy a Windows VPS for around £15, but we need multiple of these (10-20)and figure our own server might be the way forward.
how to configure linux so that it allows for two ip addresses on one machine?
I know this is possible because my server administrator setup one of my servers to have two different ip addresses so that I could have a static and dynamic http daemon (two different daemons but listening on different ips).
What do you need to configure?
I've been carrying some weird hours lately, so I'm able to see activity on my sites that I normally don't see.
Certain IPs are trying to diddle their things into my server and need the boot. It's not consistent (ie not happening every 5, 10 mins)... it's periodically throughout the months. I'll see an IP I blocked 2 months ago just randomly show up at 4:30am and try accessing the same files it was probing during it's last visit. Assuming this is just some sort of bot, can I block it permanently?
I know APF has a collection system that purges an IP list to keep it from bloating, and I had PSM do some hardening so I'm not entirely sure about the workings of APF firewall. So far my IP blocks are blank (which is a good sign!), but I'd like to add some nuisances to it, to keep their crap from appearing in my error logs anymore as "Denied by Server Configuration"
My question is: Can I block people at server level permanently? I do not want their IP being taken out with the purge list that comes by every so often.
There are lots of hosts who can give you IPs on different blocks. You should easily be able to find one hosting account that can do this. Of course, you'll need to get a low-end dedicated or colo server to do that, but the IP address thing is no big deal. With the money you would be spending, you're well within the range of a low-end dedicated anyway.
Hi Eric,
I know this thread is old BUT...
This comment interests me a lot, and I hope that somebody can clarify for me that does 50 IPs on one dedicated server require multiple routers (like 2x IPs per router?) to manage all of the IP's communicating with the dedicated server?
Our dedicated server runs our virtual machines for us and the NAT option is terrible...the virtual machines work REALLY well when they use a Bridged connection. The problem is that our virtual machines have to acquire an IP address somehow, and the hosting provider we currently use says they only give one IP address to our server which is fine if the NAT within the software worked really well...is there a webhost that can provide a setup where they have a router hooked to our dedicated server so if we need more local IP's they can be given/assigned by the router. This would then allow us to run our virtual machines much better. Does anybody know of a dedicated server host that will do this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am setup in a co-location facility. I just recieved my new SonicWall TZ180 which I am trying to setup.
Previously I had my server connected to the internet drop via a static ip address assigned via windows tcp/ip (1.1.1.2), nothing special there. Then I used Plesk and assign domains and ip addresses as normal.
My co-location facility gives me 4 static ip addresses, lets call them:
1.1.1.2
1.1.1.3
1.1.1.4
1.1.1.5
And an ip address called Network Gateway at:
1.1.1.1
And DNS ips at:
2.2.2.2
2.2.2.3
I am trying to figure out how I make this work now with the SonicWall. I am using Plesk, and I have already assigned all DNS settings and name servers to their proper static IP address, such as:
ns.mydomain.com -> 1.1.1.2
ns.myseconddomain.com -> 1.1.1.3
So I cannot use the local ip address (192.168.168.2) assigned to the server box by default by SonicWall using DHCP. I must use the actual static ip addresses assigned to me and already configured in Plesk. I have heard I need to use NAT, and assign the SonicWall the ip address of the network gateway: 1.1.1.1, then add the 4 standard static ip addresses into a pool in the sonic wall.
