Sep 2, 2008
I am having issues with spy hosting. I signed up for a shared hosting account on Saturday the setup was fast but DNS will not resolve my domains. I get this error when doing a DNS Traversal
ns9.dnscloud.com [66.249.19.217][Broken DNS server: Reports a server failure]91ms
ns10.dnscloud.com [66.249.19.218][Broken DNS server: Reports a server failure]92ms
What is this?
I made a ticket and NO REPLY AS OF YET!

This is my review of Spry shared hosting. This is a negative review
I bought a shared hosting account on Saturday when i noticed a problem. It said DNS Server reports a failure so i just though it was normal but i waited 72 hours and guess what it still does not work. They attempted to fix it and said it was fixed but did not even to bother to check my site to make sure it worked. The support is slow and they will not reply on Saturday or Sundays. The main con was the the broken DNS server. Just as a note accounts are hosted on a VPS not a server because in cpanel it says VPS Optimized. They did however refund me.

last month i came here asking about a VPS provider to replace my shell provider that died, i was on a very tight budget and ended up with VPSLinks smallest package, Link-1, 2.5gb disk space, 100gb monthly bandwith, 64mb ram, 1 dedicated ip, all for $7.95 per month.
I signed up, the setup was done before i managed to get to the login panel (must have been instant). There i was presented with OS choices, i choose debian. 10 seconds later my VPS was online and ready for me to connect with SSH. Very good
Setup - 10/10
Installed all the stuff i need (My IRC server, my bouncer, and bitlbee gateway) this takes up about 60mb ram (few, just inside the limit) and all was well.
Networking is the only problem i have with VPSLink so far, there are odd lag spikes every now and again that last around 20 seconds, there was also just under an hours downtime this month. The administrator in vpslinks IRC channel had this to say.
[lylev] No, I cannot. I did just receive word from our network administrator that one of our racks main switches died, but instead of dropping connections, it created a routing loop, overloading the rest of the network. That one rack has been taken offline, so the rest of the network is back up, but some clients will still be down.
There is real room for improvement with networking, so i'm giving it 5/10.
Customer support was pretty nice, the representatives in the IRC channel are quick to reply with informative answers, links to pages with more information, they also have a large wiki with various configuration examples and tutorials. I can't give them 10/10 because i didn't really have to deal with the customer support that much, i only asked one or two questions, so i don't know how they'd be with more in depth questions. On that basis i give customer support 7/10.
So that really puts us at an overall rating of about 7/10, not bad at all really for $7.95/month.
I'll do another update at the 3 month mark, hope this is useful

I currently use a HostGator shared plan which caps off database connections at 25. HG support said my only choice is to move to a dedicated server which means my monthly hosting cost jumps from $14.95 to $174.00! Something I'm not too excited about paying.
Can anyone offer any suggestions on Virtual Private Servers running *nix? Would a VPS be a good alternative to an expensive HG dedicated server or do you recommend I just suck it up and go dedicated? I just can't believe how much they want considering I've seen some VPS for under $100. If I did go with a VPS, would there be an easy way to move all my files, databases, SSL certs, etc to the new server?

I'd like your feedback on what you would consider being the perfect shared hosting account.
What features would be valuable for you, which wouldn’t?
Any features not listed?
If you had to put together the perfect feature set for a shared hosting account, how would you do it?

Our web site has been hacked many time over the last few months. The hacker only puts links to other site in our html code. We changed the FTP password many time but we are still finding malicious code in our main index page and other pages on the site.
We can figure how and from where they are coming in and how prevent further hacks.

I ideally want to use Fasthosts as the hosting provider, on a shared hosting account. Are there any CMS's that install and work well in such an environment?
I dont need a CMS with bells and whistles, just one that is template driven, and has 'friendly' URLs.

im running a few blogs on a shared hosting account (steadfast) and i noticed the 18 sql queries being generated by a fresh install of wordpress 2.7 are taking 0.246 seconds to execute.
<!-- 18 queries. 0.246 seconds. -->
considering this is a shared hosting server with over 800+ more domains on it, is the performance better or worse when compared to other shared hosting providers ?

I have a spry vps, and is great. But have a major problem with a directory script, that no-one can work out the cron error's ,the author or hosting company!
So I was thinking of moving to see if their might be a set up problem from the host? A resource, or a script that not running properly. But I've read the posting and from a whole spry has been great, and cheap, but no one is talking about them?

I have set up a CentoS 6 & Plesk 12.0.18 server as master and a reseller. I enabled the shared IP under IP address in the tools section.
I then added a customer and domain. then I added reseller with domain and 2 customers with domain under that. I changed the nameservers at registrar to the IP of the new server. When I use the control panel and under each domain I use the PREVIEW and each domain shows the index.html file I uploaded. When I choose OPEN it opens a new window to the domains address and I get webpage not found. And yes it has been almost 36 hours since the registrar change in case you are wondering.
Is there a setting I am missing or is the server set up wrong? Why wont it show the webpages as it does in the previews?

I have WHM 10.8.0 cPanel 10.9.0-R10737
Fedora i686 - WHM X v3.1.0
One of my resellers got a bunch of complaints this morning from her own customers that their crons have stopped running. She checked her own sites, and they're not running for her either.
I double checked. They ARE running on the rest of the server. I have no complaints from anybody else on the server, they show from shell as running on the server, and crons are running in the site I'm working on to fix a broken script (in a different reseller account).

I have an account on an older server. Its plesk.
But now that I pointed the domain I can no longer access the old server from the web.
So this is my shared ip:
66.235.201.136
Now there are about 10 domains on the IP.
what would my URL look like to access one of those accounts in plesk in the browser?
66.235.201.136/~rgratitu
I've tried the above and it doesn't work.

This is my first time with shared hosting and I went with hostgator because they are well known. Well, my site is getting decent traffic but well within my disk space and data transfer allotment, and I get this email saying my site has been suspended and my site is inaccessible.
Dear customer,
Due to an excessive amount of Apache requests on our gatorXXX server we have been forced to suspend the directory /home/username/public_html/sitename at this time as all other users on the server are experiencing issues due to this :
...http requests list...
Please let us know when you're ready to investigate and address this issue so we can work with you further. Thanks.
Sincerely,
Ford Merrill
Systems Administrator Supervisor
HostGator.com LLC
Is this what most shared hosts do? Just suspend your account once your site starts getting traffic?

I'm trying to find at least three web hosting companies to choose from to host a Joomla websites on a shared server. Would consider dedicated if the deal was right. I have a friend of mine who wants to create a church website, and is looking for the best deal. I use Netfirms which I have never had an issue with, but I didn't want to be bias, and would like give him other options to choose from.
Is there a good WebHosting Review site, I could check out, or maybe someone could recommend their top three. I reading threw the forums here and I noticed there are not that many complaints with Hostgator. Again, I just want to see if there was anything out there better.
