    What happened to the TeraFire Refugee thread?

    Haha. There was another thread on it. Ask TeraFire, they requested it be pulled due to the DDoS attacks it was attracting. I'd burn this place down before I'd ever let Colocrossing run it, so no worries there.

    The pets thread

    Ducks you say? I used to live on an orchard with thousands of migratory birds. This consisted of ducks, geese, couple swans but mostly ducks. (We also had 40~ peacocks, tons of turkeys, 30 or so chicken, 25 or so pigeons). Coons are bad. They're vicious little bastards. Raccoons are one animal...

    No firewall? Meet ufw the easiest firewall ever

    Any tips for CSF on a KVM VPS? Seems like even with default settings it just blocks everything. Been playing around with it on a dev box, while I haven't looked into it much, it doesn't perform as I remember it working on OpenVZ VPSes I've used it on. Or it could just be operator error. :|

    NodeDeploy merges with Xavvo

    Martin runs a tight ship. I'm sure everything will be good under his ownership. The original fella from NodeDeploy is still on board too, which is great, because who knows the company better than him? I think Martin just took over the financial obligations and injected additional staff and...

    No firewall? Meet ufw the easiest firewall ever

    How does this compare to other solutions? I'm sure people will chime in with several different opinions, but I've never used UFW before except as a desktop firewall with it's GUI.

    The pets thread

    Also, I'd love to get an aquarium again. Used to have fish but it wasn't an elaborate setup. When I moved I let the room mate keep the setup as it was a 50/50 effort and it was easier for me to leave it behind than move it. Wish I still had it though.

    The pets thread

    If you've got pets, share photos! I've got two cats, though want to get a small-medium dog. (Don't have a huge yard) I just untacked my curtains from the wall so the cats are now getting in the window again. They tear the blinds up so I don't usually let them up there. The little one is a...

    Good looking offer! I hate to be a stickler, but can you list what DC's are used? It's a new(ish) requirement for VPS offers :) Good luck!

    Experiences with vps.net?

    For those complaining about it being 'overpriced', remember they're a big boy provider. It's not ran by a single teenager living at home (no offense to teenagers living at home charging $2/mo for 1GB of RAM). They charge a reasonable amount to pay employees, I suspect, a reasonable living...

    Experiences with vps.net?

    No experience with him. Terry is on WHT and is an active member there. Rus is actually a member here. I've heard the name, I don't recall what all was said but it wasn't good. Is he still there?

    Experiences with vps.net?

    No experience, but have heard mixed things. Namely the negative revolves around SAN related issues but that was a year or so ago. They're a big OnApp customer and have the resources to setup a 'proper' installation of it, so I'm sure they've gotten those kinks ironed out. People here will say...

    Fall vpsBoard Get Fit or Active Challenge

    Bout to go for my normal walk in a bit. Early enough that I'll probably do it again later today, so that'll be 4~ miles total. Nice day out.

    Tools for publishing to Twitter on a schedule?

    Curious if any tool like this exists. There is a vpsBoard Twitter account (@vpsBoard) that I manage that I link to noteworthy discussions, but lately have been lacking. Was wondering if there was a tool available that I could use to publish to Twitter, but also have the option of doing so in...

    Aim2Game = B2 Net = Servermania = Chris Niedojadlo = Jerzy Niedojadlo = Kevin Blanchard

    Pretty much sums it up. Illegal? Well, perhaps not. Unfair and shady? Of course. I've never said I blame Colocrossing. If I were a provider offering servers then of course I'd rather promote those who utilize my services more than others. They make more sales, need more servers, I sell more...

    Aim2Game = B2 Net = Servermania = Chris Niedojadlo = Jerzy Niedojadlo = Kevin Blanchard

    Ah yeah, these guys. Plus if you call all the numbers on their WhoIS like I did a couple months ago it's all the same PBX. Here is a collected list of their offers on LEB since March. http://lowendbox.com/blog/vps-ace-2month-256mb-openvz-server-in-new-york/ <–First offer by CC alias...

    Hmm, So we have bad language here?

    Haha, weird. I've never seen that. Mun, what company provides blocking?

    Blocking Tor Users and Tor Exit Nodes from Reaching Your Server

    Haha, yeah. I thought the python script was a nifty tool so I told him to share it here. Didn't realize CSF could do this, however.

    Blocking Tor Users and Tor Exit Nodes from Reaching Your Server

    He means him and myself. When the site went down and I was working on it he hit me up on Skype to see if he could do anything to help. I mentioned a lot of IPs connecting from Tor at the time so "we" worked on a solution to prevent Tor users from connecting to the site for a while.

    Blocking Tor Users and Tor Exit Nodes from Reaching Your Server

    vpsBoard is, but sometimes php requests get crazy and eat up resources. CNServers is good for most attacks, but not all attacks all the time. I'm not saying that Tor was cause of the attack, however logs show that there were a lot of Tor connections before/after attacks started so the main...
