setting up a server running ZFS as a backup server. My only problem is that it's very new to me, and naturally I'm skeptical of it's redundancy capabilities etc, I don't want to get burned. Anyone used ZFS, what's your experience with it?
View 2 Repliesi just lease a server that comes with 2 hard drive.
i want to make use of both hard drive as fully dedicated backup server to backup my other server via ftp.
i have no problem with first hard drive as I can easily create the ftp user via directadmin to /home/backup1
the thing i am having problem is now, i've mounted the /dev/sdb1 as /backup2
now the question is, how am i able to create a FTP account (in DirectAdmin) pointing it to /backup2 ? Or how do I do it in ssh command?
Getting error while running backup on server. Plesk 12 windows 2012.

Most people probably run Linux on their media servers, but since I don't know much about Linux and the media server we have is unmanaged, I was wondering how you guys feel about running Windows Server 2003 Std on a media server instead of Linux. We'll only be using the server to host Flash video files (.flv) and we'll be serving those vids on websites hosted on other servers, resulting in approx. 50,000-100,000 media views per day (filesizes range from approx. 5MB to 10MB). We don't want to run Windows Media Services, just a Web server (IIS6) and have the Flash video players on the external websites take care of the streaming/downloading part.
View 0 Replies View RelatedThis is the scenario, domain.com are setup on server1, however server2 also has the same profile of domain.com as we use ns3 and ns4 using domain.com. This works fine with the nameserver setup on server2.
However I encounter problems as the emails from server2 won't reach server1 as there are duplicate profile on server2.
My question is how do I setup the DNS in cpanel/whm from server2 so the emails from server2 will reach server1?
Server1 (www.domain.com)
ns1.domain.com
ns2.domain.com
Server2
ns3.domain.com
ns4.domain.com
I currently have one dedicated server and four VPSs all using Plesk and all having their own name servers controlled by Plesk. What I'd like to do is consolidate everything so all my sites use one set of name servers.
I'm a PHP developer (and will be developing my own front end), and only have limited knowledge of administrating a server, so first of all if anyone has done this before and made mistakes in the process, please could you share them with me so I can avoid making them?
Secondly, I would like to use a MySQL database for storing the DNS info - I've found a tutorial at [url]which I'd like to use - could someone who knows what they're talking about have a skim through this and reassure me that everything there is correct and up to date (the article was written in early 2006 - just checking nothing in the world of DNS has changed since)?
I'm using Fedora.

give me advice
Or, should I run Linux
I would run Linux on it, but I don't know how.
And they have different version of Linux. Example Redhat, Ubuntu etc.
Which one should I go for?
Also, what do I do if I have a netgear ethernet card? Is that Linux? Is it compaitable with Redhat?
And last question, what do I use for security?
I'm a hacker, yeah.. I know what all people can do to websites. How do I stop them?
DoSing, Cross Scripting, XML Attacks, MySql Injection.. Etc.
If a linux fan can respond, that would be nice.
why not just setup my own server. I have the connection and hardware necessary. So I am wondering why do people pay for web hosting? Why not just run your own website from your own server?

1) What does it take to run your own DNS server?
2) How to determine server specs?
3) Where to locate?
4) Do you need multiple server?

I take it I need to make the machine into a domain?
I have 2 IP Addresses assigned to me. and I have 2 domains, so I'm thinking about configuring each domain for an IP Address.
I would ideally like to have email addresses for both domains but going to test it on 1 domain first before proceeding onwards.
It would be appreciated if someone could just jot down on how to go about setting up Exchange, how to configure it...and pretty much it. I will be using Exchange 2003 Enterprise
In the future I'm thinking of running a web server from my residential house.
I currently have rogers cable , but they do not allow you to run a server from their residential internet connection.
Does anyone run a server from their house? What kind of internet connection do you have?
I'm guessing most people don't do this because they find out it cost way to much to get a special connection ran to their house. Colocation might be the only way to go.

View 7 Replies View RelatedIf i want to run e-mail server on my machine are those thing all that i need:
1) Separate machine running Linux + UPS
2) Internet connection - ADSL/WiFi (what is minimal acceptable down/up speed for running server normally?)
3) Domain name + one or two static IP addresses acquired form my ISP
4) Email server and webmail software
5) One man that know everything about server security and settings.
Why i want to run server at my home is because i have two spear machines with lot of HD space which can be perfect for this use. Only problem could be internet connection... Is ADSL good enough for me?
Also target public for my E-mail service will be 99% from my country (so ping should be lower than other commercial VPS from USA...)
But still i would like to hear opinions from people that know much more about this topic than me. So what do you think is VPS better soultion than hosting server at home?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to install a FTP Server in my computer so that I can simply login into my own computer to grab important files at work... since carrying laptop and loosing flash drives are becoming annoying .
In my home computer I have Linksys Router, and Verizon as my ISP (blocks port 80, 21 I believe).
Since Verizon blocks those ports the configuration has become a nightmare.
Using BulletProof FTP Server I made the FTP Server listen to port 5000. And in my router's forwarding section I opened the port 5000, and made it listen to 192.168.1.100 (Port Range Forwarding, TCP UDP both).

Guest OS - Linux (e.g. CentOS)
Can someone here recommend me a piece of software (both free and paid) allowing to run a guest system and set the abovementioned limits?
