I'm trying to test my colocated webserver's bandwidth. I found speed test links such as this one: [url]
If I just run this on from my colocated web server, would the result be credible?
Although I think these tests are designed for dsl/cable subscribers.
How do I test to see if I am getting the bandwidth I am signed up for?
Right now I have a vps with futurehosting.biz IP: 75.126.49.194.
On their advertisements they say everyone will be on a 100mbit port.
However, I have never gotten speeds above 10mbit UNLESS I am downloading from another machine in the same datacenter:
dallas.futurehosting. biz/test100.zip*
When I try downloading from a machine outside the same building such as:
www .futurehosting.biz/test100.zip* (Their Chicago DC)
I never, ever get speeds over 10 mbit outside the same DC.
I opened up a ticket regarding this, and all they say over at future hosting is that Virtuozzo confirms it's a 100mbit link, and that other users in the node may be using the bandwidth at the same time.
The only explanation I can think of is that it truly is a 100mbit port, but is capped to 10mbit once it goes outside the datacenter. If this is the case, they should clearly state this in their advertisement. Or is this a common practice with VPS hosts?

We are a small development team mostly coding in php/mysql as an unpaid hobby. Anyways yesterday our test server had hardware problems and to get a decent new one would be $300. Well this seems a lot to ask for someone that does get any compensation for it. So we are looking for some cheap way of providing a test server. We need at least a way that provides svn, apache w/ php and mysql. We tried to use the webserver, but the head dev didnt like the idea. Any suggestions?
The three devs are in charge of wcreplays.com .
it possible to test own server in my home(only to test)
iam haveing centos 5.4 with vmware
need 2mpbs for testing it be good i think so
but only i haveing issue is ip(iam useing dynamic ips
it anyway to test as local server with dynamic ips?
What is the best way to test the speed of a server?
CPU/processing wise, and not bandwidth wise?
Is there any script or method where I can test my server security?

i want to test speed like my customers worldwide.
Let's say you ordered new server,do you make active same moment(install httpd server and all other components)or you running test before like memory and hardware test? If yes,which programs you would recommend to test fully hardware?

i just buyed a dedicated server with 100mbps dedicated port..
how can i test the traffic on port to see is is realy working on 100mbps?
I have a problem. to buy dedicated server but I don't really know what to buy. I need some kind of stress test for server so that I can be assured that my website won't crash when it will be on front page of digg. Does something like that even exists?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a question getting the setup of my DNS and email server working correctly.
In my mailserver, lets say I set the SMTP server to mail.BLUE.com. Through my DNS, I set an MX record for mail.BLUE.com and I set an A record for mail.BLUE.com to 1.1.1.1.
I create different domains on my mail server and give each an IP address. BLUE.com is 1.1.1.1. RED.com is 2.2.2.2. GREEN.com is 3.3.3.3.
Each domain is setup in my DNS as a forward lookup zone. Each domain has an MX record (mail.domain_name.com) and a A record (pointing mail.domain_name.com to it's IP address). There are other records of course... but they're not important for my question.
When I want to check or send mail from BLUE.com I use mail.BLUE.com. When I want to check or send mail from RED.com I use mail.RED.com. I do this for all my email accounts.
But, when I check dnsstuff.com on any domain besides BLUE.com, it tells me the following:
****************************
mail.RED.com claims to be host mail.BLUE.com [but that host is at 1.1.1.1 (may be cached), not 2.2.2.2].
****************************
Now... this can send and receive mail just fine... but I think this may cause issues when it comes to SPAM settings (some servers may consider our mail SPAM because we're "pretending" to be a different mail server).
So... here's my question... what's the best way to set everything up to run multiple sites and email accounts on one server?
How can I use 1 SMTP mail server (BLUE.com) and get my other domains to pass the dnsstuff.com test?
Can any one tell me, How to perform speed test on my VPS...

HTML Code:
ERROR: I could not complete a connection to any of your mailservers!

If this is a timeout problem, note that the DNS report only waits about 40 seconds for responses, so your mail *may* work fine in this case but you will need to use testing tools specifically designed for such situations to be certain.
also on DNSReport.com mail test, got this error message:

[Note that if your mailserver takes over 30 seconds to respond, our test will timeout, even though real mailservers will wait longer] what makes my server failed on this test?
I have a Sonicwall NSA 3500. Does anyone know if you can use it to create bandwidth charts of Network Objects (e.g. IPs or Groups of IPs)?
I am thinking something like Cacti, but I don't know the code to pull that info or if it's even technically possible.
Any good and simple script to see Server status, server load, bandwidth, etc...?
is there like a simple script where it shows me the server info?
Like how much RAM is being used, bandwidth, load, etc?
I have a dedicated for my site using Cpanel/WHM. My bandwidth limit is 1500GB and I usually have about 1000GB/month. But 3 weeks ago my hosting provider notified me that I am close to my bandwidth limit. I have checked both Cpanel and WHM and they showed half of that number. The company was telling me I had 1500GB and Cpanel/WHM that I have 800GB. They told me that the data center was counting the right number and gave me a link to check my real bandwidth.
My first thought that they might try to fool me. After their prompt I have checked through ssh that my site sends about 3-9MB. They told me that they can not find from where my extra traffic is coming from. My users are about the same and my statistics show the normal stats like every other month.
I was wondering from where all this traffic is coming from? Is it from hotlinking? Is it from some flash games I have? They ensured me that all these are included in my stats. Could it be my RSS?
My other thought is that might my server is hacked and used for bad causes. My hosting providers are searching it right now. The last 2 days I get a "High 5 minute load average alert" from my WHM. It usually was from 1 up to 4 but the last days it goes from 6 to 50!
That made me believe even stronger that someone is using my server..
I do not have the experience to deal with it,
My server processor is always loaded but I use only 150 GB of bandwidth. Is it possible to find a powerful (quad core) dedicated server with only 500 - 1000 GB of bandwidth that will be cheaper?
They usually come with 2000 GB included and more.
I have recently switched from shared hosting and there I had a strange deviation between cpanel bandwidth and AwStats bandwidth. Unitl I changed to a dedicated box I got about ~180GB in AwStats but Cpanel only reported ~130GB.
So now I have whm setup and host my site on one cpanel account. Can I trust the bandwidth reported in that cpanel account or is there a definitive number I can get via other means? I just want to be sure I have an exact figure so I know where I'm at with regards to bandwidth. At the moment I am wondering whether it may be underreported as well?
Im currently runing many Linux servers with your basic cpanel/whm server config
Im looking for a way to limit the speed/band per user account, now i know in whm u can limit there monthly usage however thats not what im looking for.
Our small hosting company has taken off this last couple months and all our servers are located in our facilities were not using any external DC.
Because of our huge increase in clients we recently upgraded to a T3 line.
What we would like to do is limit each account to a specific speed limit cap if possible.
So for example account A would be limited to 5MB MAX , so if account A was running a illegal file hosting service that we have not caught yet our other clients would not be slowed down in the meantime.
So basically we would like to evenly distribute our band to each of our users.
If this isnt possible is there a way to limit download speeds?
For research can someone tell me what is the average transfer ratio for a game server (ie Inbound vs Outbound)
So if a game server used 200GB outbound. How much Inbound would this equate to?
Is there a way to check someone elses server for bandwidth usage?
I was asked this weekend if there is a way to get an estimate of bandwidth for a similar website to one a person wants to design?
