    BuyVM announces Europe, Anycast IP's, Floating IP's, & Bandwidth pooling!

    Oh that's right!  I haven't gotten into that at all, but that makes total sense. I should have picked up on that. So what happens if someone needs a specific template?  Do you build them up as they're requested?   Impressive for sure.  :-)

    BuyVM announces Europe, Anycast IP's, Floating IP's, & Bandwidth pooling!

    I always find it reassuring when I log into a container for the first time and can tell off the bat that a certain level of care has been taken on the node level. Kernel modules, boom.  Proper elimination of unnecessary UBC parameters? Check.  Adjustments to prevent accidental overcommit? ...

    Good VPS specs for remote desktop?

    Just a little curious which distro you ended up going with.  Have though about spinning up an X2Go next time around.  I've done just about all of them now, except Cinnamon. https://openvz.org/X_inside_VE <--- this is horribly outdated but I'm going to update it with some of vpsb's success...

    Good VPS specs for remote desktop?

    I just put two and two together on the thread topic. I was pretty tired last night.  :D  *stomp-stomp-clap, stomp-stomp-clap*

    We will, we will DDoS you...

    Yeah.  The Dude popped in around Midnight I think. Said that RamNode was taking hits at that time also. Realized we could get to the front page of https://biggiesmalls.vpsboard.com - but that was prior to finding out it was a DDoS. Before that we thought it was maintenance, and that pulling the...

    Single cheapo HDD in QA on a Ploop device. Look at the "Enterprise Pure SSD RAID 10!"  Hurl.

    [OpenVZ] Ploop, Fuse, ext4 improvements in new test kernel

    Two things I feel strongly about - figuring out a way to log all instances of containers accessed with "vzctl enter" and calling out the providers who attempt to get away with misleading customers. I've already seen the tweets to OVZ about how happy people are with their 400 MB/sec DD output. ...

    Zopim live-chat may have been compromised.

    If that's true, it marks the 4th or 5th time that's happened I think... I was emailed the last time they were breached, not sure why I wasn't this time. Figure I'm pretty well done with them if this turns out to be valid.

    Well, another day, another fraud attempt in the Inbox for fake awards I've "already" received ...but "forgot" to pay for they claim ...  for $300 a pop?  Complete with public URL to press release. Nice FB scrubber. Yeah, will be dealing with this if only for the fact that one person could...

    No ploop support in the kernel, or kernel is way too old. - CentOS 5.11

    Crap that had to be hard to tell one way or the other. Must have been in the earlier days of vswap, like within the first year or so? Vswap was pretty wonky up until ... hmm, around 068.8 or so.

    No ploop support in the kernel, or kernel is way too old. - CentOS 5.11

    If I recall correctly there's never been any Ploop device support in 2.6.18, nor will it work at all under an ext3-fs.  I ran through the ext4 conversion in Dev a couple of times without problems.  Do you have a testing environment?
