CommercialMedia ($35/month) I'm happy with the unmetered 100Mbps port. # wget http://cachefly.cachefly.net/100mb.test --2013-12-24 20:05:17-- http://cachefly.cachefly.net/100mb.test Resolving cachefly.cachefly.net... 205.234.175.175 Connecting to cachefly.cachefly.net|205.234.175.175|:80...

If it's under $5/month then I only pay annually if possible, for bigger VPSs and dedicated servers I only pay monthly. For the LEBs, it's not a huge hit if the company goes bust and so far I've never had that happen but on multiple occasions I've cancelled my VPS prior to the 12 months but the...

Thanks. I've been using that site which has been extremely helpful. The create command I used was from another website which was used for generating a 24 hour graph for CPU usage so I assumed it would work for Load also, I guess I was wrong.

It's not embedded unfortunately, it's just a CNAME record but it's still really nice compared to other public reporting pages I've used.

NodePing gets my vote. Their new public status page feature is pretty awesome also (http://status.securedragon.net/)

Thanks both of you. This fixed it: /usr/bin/rrdtool create ${RRDFILE} --start N -s 30 DS:load1:GAUGE:600:0:100 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:2:1600

I think one of the biggest benefits of "slabbing" is mobility. For example: at one point we had a cPanel server that was an OpenVZ VPS, when it outgrew the node it was on I created a KVM VPS with more resources and just did a vzmigrate of the cPanel OpenVZ VPS from the OpenVZ node to the KVM...

I'm trying to build a script to graph the load of a server using rrdtools but for some reason my graph will only show the data for 12 hours even though the graph itself is 24 hours. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I've never used rrdtools before so this script was pieced together from other...

My test OpenVZ nodes are actually a KVM VPS and a VMware ESXi VM. With my personal hatred for KVM I would never want to run our OpenVZ nodes on a KVM and ESXi is too expensive to make it cost effective for us to even try it.

Thanks for all of the responses, some really interesting methods out there. I've found a workaround to my problem (I just do all of my coding on my Windows 7 VM and FTP works just fine), but keep the posts coming since I'm sure others are learning of new apps and protocols from this thread also. :)

I'd probably give most of it away. I've read to many horror stories about lottery winners and I know if I had a lot of money I would ruin my life.

When you sign up for anything money related you always have to check a box that allows the other party to look up your credit history. You also give them permission to report your history to those agencies listed above. It's a double edged sword which I have felt both sides of. :(

We've had about the same amount of people pay with Stripe as we've had people pay with bitcoins. Both combined make up less than 1% of transactions while Paypal makes up over 99% since Google Checkout went away. It does appear that Stripe is a big target for fraud as we've had more than enough...

No issues with my VPS in NC.

Normally I use SFTP/SCP but since moving to Comcast I've switched to FTP but I upgraded my laptop to Windows 8.1 and now my favorite FTP client (CoreFTP) doesn't work for more than a few files before failing so I've switched over to WebDAV since it's fast and reliable (unfortunately our...

That's only for 6 months a year though, the other 6 months you're stuck behind a desk or at a sorting facility.

I'd want to be in law enforcement. If I weren't married that's what I'd be doing.

Something doesn't add up here. Your 512MB plan comes with more bandwidth and disk space than your 1GB plan and both plans are the same price. Either way, 200GB is a lot for Australia if I remember correctly. I've been wanting to pick up a VPS with you guys for a while but have no idea what I'd...

I went to pay my invoice today and noticed the following message: While I consider my $35/m dedicated server with them a disposable server, their network stability and uptime have blown away some of my $200/m leased servers I've used in the past. The only negative thing I have to say about them...

I hope to have my new project finished by Christmas. I'm setting up a dashboard camera for my car using the RPi. Hopefully I'll get the HD camera for Christmas and then I'll just need to work on the mounting fun. I wish I could get it setup before our camping trip in the mountains but I don't...
