An old friend of mine wanted to get a vps so I made one from a dedicated and gave it to him. The only thing he has done is made it so the only ip allowed to connect to ssh is his. what are the pros and cons of hacking.exploiting with this.

My site needs "raw" processing power due to the applications it runs. ram (over 2 gb) and hdd are not that important to me.
could someone point me in the right direction.
does anybody know a company for a cheaper ded. server (unmanaged) who will accept also a IP net (min. /24) within a BGP4 connection instead of single expensive IPs ? I know some in Europe who will do it for additional costs but often the server are too expensive.
View 12 Replies View RelatedMy website has been under a constant Syn Flood DoS attack for the past few days. However, the attack originates from a single IP address that changes every few hours (Possibly a syn flood script with IP spoofing capabilities).
The Syn Flood attack isn't creating any spike whatsoever in my usage graphs, however, its still rather annoying. What firewall should I use to combat the DoS attack?

However I am unable to understand over how can I point [url] (bought at Godaddy) to my VPS host.
I only have a single dedicated IP address for me. So it makes more challenging on how can I host DNS on my VPS only.
I have the impression that I am being affected from a kind of DDOS or email worm attack. Is there a way I can track the sources of the connections?

I have three sites running on three separate servers behind a single router with DDWRT. One of the servers is a Windows 2003 server that I have DNS running on.
Each domain name points to my public static IP address.
My router is set to use the windows 2003 server as the DNS server.
I have port 80 forwarding to the windows 2003 server.
I can access the sharepoint site that is on the 2003 server from outside my network and within it without any problems.
When I try to access one of the other two sites from outside the network, i get a 400 error. When I try to access the same sites from within the network, they work fine.

if it is better to host two related websites on single host or on separate servers?
currently we are hosting three related websites on 3 separate webhosts. one in US, another in UK & another in Nepal. can anyone please explain if is it better to use single webhost?
Our web server encounter a problem lately, that an IP address in India repetitively sent requests that uses up all connections available in Apache. All connections appear to be in W state. The connections are not terminated by Apache even though timeout has been set to lower 30 seconds. Similarly, MySQL connections also are not dropped until Apache is restarted.
View 7 Replies View Relatedis there any sort of ssl certificate that will 'secure' any domain, hosted on a single server?
For example, I have the following domains and subdomains:
google.com
test.google.com
mywebsite.com
hello.example.com
All will be hosted on the same server (same IP) and I want all to be secured, through a SIGNED certificate, not a self signed. I assumed that wildcard ssl would be fine for this, but I just took a look and it's only for subdomains: example.example.com hello.example.com.
Is there any way of having every subdomain and domain secured, using ssl, through one certificate? I don't want to have to buy individual certificates for every domain, that'd be... expensive.
We have a few single CPU (54xx quad core)systems running Hyper-V and looking at the Hyper-V Logical Processer Total value in Perfmon its staying pretty much from 85% to 100% all day long. Perfomance is mostly ok with an occasional hesitation, but the biggest reason is we are trying to avoid doubling the cost of SPLA license by not adding the second CPU. Most motherboards we have only hold 16 gig to 24 gig memory and by adding a second CPU both will probably be less then 40% or 50%
Any problems keeping a 54xx or any CPU for that matter running flat out as long as its cooled OK?

Based on todays equipement I know a person can spend Thousands on a good server, I'm looking to build my own and just want some advice on which way to go.
I'm thinking of just building the server pc in one case and the hard drive setup will be in a seperate case with the following:
3ware 9690SA-8E controller
Mass-Storage 8x by A-Tech Fabrication for a case
8 - SATA2 SEAGATE 1TB (7200rpm) 32MB on the controller as RAID
Can anyone give advice on what would be a good setup if you were running 1 single server for local businesses. I don't want to hear just pay for a provider as I've heard that one before now I'm looking to know what hardware setup you would run I like to play and learn. Even though sometimes the headache playing isn't as much fun as we sometimes may have hoped.
What are m/b and processor options for running a server?
What is min. amount of ram a person should run using linux and cpanel?
Should linux be on a max. amount of space for root and server files on a seperate mnt?
What connection up/down would be min. for usage of about 5gig/month?
This is kind of a followup of our thread
"More RAM or better CPU?" [url].
Sorry if we were supposed to post in that thread in stead, but this is a different question that in that post.
Our server is still crashing a lot and unfortunately we can't afford a multi processor with multi cores.
So the question is as follows:
For a site with a lot of database activity, what would be the best thing to go for:
a) Single processor with multiple cores, or
b) Multiple processors with a single core.
a = Intel Xeon 3060 Dual Core Conroe Processor (2.4GHz)
b = 2x Intel Dual Xeon 2.8GHz Processors
i got my server. I'm still shopping for hard disks but the server is pretty much there.
i'm in Houston, Texas. i'll like to know if anyone can give me tips on what to look for in colo. what question should i ask or be aware of.
my budget is $100 per month. i don't use much bandwidth and it doesn't have to be premium bandwidth with basic service.
I'm a web developer for an educational institution. We have a site that over 300 students must access each semester. Our site is hosted by a popular shared hosting provider. Our site is accessible to everyone BUT several students living in a particular dorm on our campus. The dorm has a different internet service provider than the rest of the school, so the site IS accessible on the rest of campus.
The dorm ISP insists they have no firewalls blocking any sites including ours. Indeed, the students confirm they have never had a problem accessing any other sites. Our webhost ran some tests and said they do not have a firewall up against the dorm's IP address therefore the problem must be on the dorm's end. Indeed, no one else has problem accessing the site except for these dorm students. Both companies are claiming it must be on the other's end and neither are willing to look into it further.
Some additional tidbits. The site was hosted on a Mac G5 dedicated server in our department in the past and students never complained about access issues. However, that was in our beta phase and less students were accessing the site.
We had one of the students in the building run some ping commands and a tracert. The general ping and tracert commands appeared to indicate the site was working. However, when the student tried various specific ports, the command got stuck on: "connecting to ..." where the dots were our website.
This test seemed to affirm to the server company that the problem was at the ISP level. Again, the ISP insists the problem is not theirs.
My main question is, does anyone know what on earth could be happening and on what end this problem may be on?
I would like to run fsck in boot up. How can I run it? Please let me know.

From reading these boards for a couple years now, I always had the impression that colo was cheapest in Texas or thereabouts, and was priciest in places like NYC. (Of course, I'm referring to relatively comparable service.)
Now I finally have a need for a single server colo (1U). The most-mentioned places in Texas on these boards are cologuys, colo4dallas, etc. Most of them have reasonable rates listed right on their website, around $100-170 for the bandwidth that I need, about 1.5Mbps.
But I've also been requesting quotes from various providers in NYC, who are also popular on these boards. And while there are some in the $200-250 range, which is what I was expecting, there are some that are mentioned highly on these boards (toqen, thenynoc, razorblue, etc.) that are quoting $60-100/month for the same amount of bandwidth.
I.e., not only comparable but in fact *lower* than the Texas colos.
What am I missing here? It's very possible that I'm comparing apples to oranges, cuz I really don't know any of these businesses. Just forming an opinion based on what gets recommended here on a consistent basis.
Does anyone know if there are providers left in Dallas that provide single server colocation solutions? If so, who are they and what can I expect in terms of pricing?
I am used to reselling shared and dedicated servers, but I've leased them for long, I could have paid for them by now. Some of my clients have their own systems too. They tend to request Dallas.
I am starting a small template based company. How many unique websites in their own unique folder can I host on a single server?
These websites would not get many hits, maybe a few hundread to a few thousand a month per site. My goal is to minimize the number of accounts I will have to open up with a web service provider.
Should I purchase 1 package per site or is there a way to get around this. Each unique site would have its own unique domain.
Have a domain, and I want to make a single Contact Us/Order page SSL. Have purchased the SSL certificate, put the domain on its own IP and it's ready to go. Now, how do I go about altering the page to be an SSL page. Do I simply call it as [url]? It makes some calls and loads a little SWF contact page from within it's own directory, and then shoots an email out to the contact email.
This will be the only page that ever needs an SSL on the whole site, so no worries in expanding it later.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a user who says he cannot get to any site on my server from either home or work. He has been a user for many years, and has never had any problems. He has also checked with his IT at work and they confirmed the site is not available. He is computer savvy, so I trust he is telling the truth.
His work and home are only 10 miles apart.
Do you guys have any ideas what could be happening? Is there a DNS entry wrong somewhere? He can't access the site even when putting in the IP address.
There is one other user reporting something similar but other than that no other complaints. The site works fine for everyone else.
site is gm-trucks.com
