I am leasing servers for about 2 years now, and now I wanted to start with colocation. I am selling VPS so I need VPS nodes. I would buy node with 32Gb RAM, latest Xeons, Hardware Raid 10, etc. so I figured that it is better to colocate in the long run.
Can you suggest me best colocation company in terms of quality of bandwidth and support.
I really need prompt support, ticket answered in 15 minutes, and only premium bandwidth.
Also, is there company in USA which assembles rack servers for a fee. I would like to pay them for the components I find on newegg and their fee, and that they order the components, assemble the hardware, test it, and send it to DC.
I need a budget chicago server -- I know, very difficult to find (last company I went with was Singlehop, and they're great, but I can't afford it for what I'd wish to do.)
Anyways, here's what I need my server for --
Some personal, non busy websites(my webhost that I've been using is being let go by me :[ I need this server for it reliably.) CentOS5 or RH4 is preferred. cPanel is required
I intend to host a few websites, and TWO counter-strike 1.6 servers (not busy or CPU intense really) So..
I purchased some services from hostfresh.com but after waiting 3 days for my hosting to be set up (just basic web host space) i decided to switch to wrzhost.com where i was ready to go within 10 min of buying the services. I sent a support ticked to hostfresh(before i asked for the refund) and a lady told me to contact sales , when i told her i was getting no reply she again told me to contact sales so i bought else where. I emailed sales and billing 2 times each and sent 2 support tickets to them over a week and a half but have gotten no reply at all and when i sent a ticket to the lady that was actually replying , she now wont reply to my tickets also.
Anyone else have a problem with them and how did you get your refund?
I've been with JaguarPc since 1999 and I just realized that through all my years here I never gave them a shout out. These guys are very helpful and it's amazing the type of service they offer for the money. I have 2 virtual private servers with them and absolutely no issues. They manage the entire server for me for $33.95 a month. So if anybody needs good hosting:
I need a company to register my domain, and then forward emails and urls to my actual site that is somewhere else. I don't need any actual web hosting or email pop (at the moment). My main requirement is reliability.
The company I currently use bounces some email to me and forwards other email to a black hole. They're also not replying to my mail, so it's time to leave. BTW, this is a company that has generally excellent reviews.
I've got a decent server, quad processor, 12GB ram, terabyte of hot swappable RAID 10 disk. Its at an Equinix site. They provide UPS, backup generators, etc and fiber to the usual major backbone folks.
But its a lights out facility. I want someone else to handle backups, rebooting when needed, etc.
I'd like to let someone else provide the service. Use my 2U server or I can rent yours.
Need MySql, Apache, Tomcat, SSL, Java, ssh access. I've got wildcard certs for SSL, domain registered, etc.
I'm guessing that I can get this for about $500 per month with low bandwidth (this is an IT application, not peer-to-peer or torrents.). Let me know if my budget is off base. I think one megabyte/second sustained over the month, 95% averaged is suffiicent. At least until the business grows, we can then talk about getting racks of blades at higher cost.
I am running a SQL test server here that is piping HUGE amounts of data for a test project I am running.
Approximately 30 queries a second - constantly. That's over 2.5M queries a day -- so we are talking big (I think?)
I am currently running this test on a
AMD Phenom 9300, 4GB RAM - SATA 500GB HDD and I am running MySQL 5.0.51a i386 on CentOS
I have programmed a process control for our applications purpose - basically it controls the launching of our SQL intense applications, and stops launching when the Load is greater than 2.5
I have plans to optimize the number of queries (I will build in a cache to some of the applications - and run INSERT statements all together) however I am looking for SQL tweaks that will improve performance. Would running the 64bit version work better?
Recently left a big corporate job and started my own consulting firm in the area of human resources/employee benefits. Right now, my technology consists of a laptop with online backup through Carbonite. I am ILLITERATE when it comes to technology, so bear with me please....
BackgroundThe business plan calls for growth by adding a small number of employees, starting with an assistant, along with working with independent contractors. These will each need to have access to the files that now reside on my hard drive. I don't anticipate more than 6 people (employees and/or contractors, combined) in the first year.
In addition to the shared access described above, I would need to be sure that the environment where files are stored is highly secure, and that I can grant access to files to some people and not others.
In addition to the above, I need to ensure that all the data are backed up routinely.
Employees/contractors will likely not be in the same office location where I am located, and some (most) may work from a home office.
My assistant, when hired, may/may not be in my office. Regardless, (s)he will need to have access to (and make changes to) my contacts and calendar in outlook. In addition, (s)he will need to be able to read and send emails on my behalf.
AT&T, as part of my advertising with them in the Yellow Pages, is developing (and will host) my website. Included in their service will be email boxes (up to 20) with my domain name.
Business Need Based on these points, I figured I needed to buy a server, so I've been talking with Dell. Of course, they'll sell me a server and they have a relationship with All Covered who will install it and make sure its operational.
But after talking wtih Dell, I learned that there was something called managed hosting, colocated hosting, dedicated hosting, and shared hosting. I called Rackspace, they said they would be overkill for what I needed and referred me to Mosso. Mosso said the same thing, and sent me to this site.
i install APF and config conf file but i have a problem for start APF :
root@server [~]# /usr/local/sbin/apf -r eth0 : error fetching interface information Device not found eth0 : error fetching interface information Device not found eth0 : error fetching interface information Device not found eth0 : error fetching interface information Device not found eth0 : error fetching interface information Device not found Development mode enabled !; firewall will fluch every 5 minutes. Unable to load iptable module (ip_tables), abroting
While i have loads a experience running servers remotely, I know to start my own ISP is a bit more costly and involves things like rack servers, temperature controled rooms and BANDWIDTH.
I have handle on 1st two, ( and yes htings like insurance and a store are looked after )
What i need are a list of T3 providers that I can contact about purchasing a dedicated T3 line for our store. While the location isn't yet set in stone and i may in fact look at a existing computer store owner who may be open to the idea already.
The company will host local websites, and others websites.
AND allow for reselling on a lessor level and include at least 6 others who host game servers.
With these 6 the T3 line will probably be almost half used, so the ISP must be scalable for growth.
The thing i need in nut shell are pricing on a T3 line of my own in or close to downtown Oshawa Ontario, Canada

I spent all my afternoon on this but I couldn't managed to solve this problem out. Hope someone knows the solution for this one.
I've chrooted Apache and now it won't start. I try to run it with chroot /chroot/httpd httpd and it doesn't start but instead enters a single error in a error log. Something about permission being denied and apr_proc_detach constant. The best part is that I managed to run it flawlessly on an another server, but on this one it won't start. If I start it with -X parameter then it runs fine. Has anyone came across this error before? What libraries I should put in chroot environment to avoid the apr_proc_detach permission denied error?
On another computer it runs without problems, so I believe it's problem me not including all the necessary libraries in the environment (I included everything on the ldd /usr/sbin/httpd list).

...Done. Restarting lfd... Stopping lfd:[ OK ] [ OK ] Starting lfd:[ OK ]
I've supposedly set APF firewall to start at boot time, by doing something like:
chkconfig --levels 2345 apf on
However i have my reservations to weather it is actually starting, its set to block port 80, after boot if i try and access it, the connection will get refused straight away, however if i go and manually start APF then try and access again, it will take a while, like its ignoring the connection attempt (which is good).
