    AnyNode, Exclusive Trial?

    I do not have a problem when a company is posting a thread that it will invite 15 people for a test. What is the difference between "the fastest 15" and "the 15 people the company selects"? Well, if it is not about "the fastest 15" the thread would be quite pointless. Everyone would be moaning...

    Looking For Vps Sponsor

    If I look to the current domain prices I think you domain might be more expensive than a low end vps. You can get a vps for 15$ a year. Enough to play around with php. Suggestion: First buy a vps and then buy a domain.

    What are you using IPv6 for?

    Well, just for the sake to support it. If noone is offering something on IPv6 noone wants to use it. One thing I really like about IPv6: They are dirty cheap. So I am able to separate my services - so I do not need to switch port numbers on socket based stuff.

    KVM vs Xen for the end-user

    Both support full virtualization. So it is all about your favourit flavour. Both do their jobs reaaly good if your provider knows how to manage them. I do prefer KVM because it is build in the Linux  kernel. You can create a KVM server out of any Linux pc/laptop.

    HOW-TO: Protect from recent SolusVM exploits.

    Maybe time that someone is building a little GUI on top of the SolusVM API. I knew before that I do not want to be a hoster.

    Cannot install MySQL Server 5.5

    That is a bug in the MySQL setup skript. You have to use a empty password during installation because it is not stored correctly. You can change the password afterwards: shell> mysql -u root mysql> UPDATE mysql.user SET Password = PASSWORD('[your secure password]') WHERE User = 'root'...

    Mailserver with nullmailer

    This is the start of a small series of mail related posts. I will start with nullmailer which is the perfect fit for a small vps that just has to send some emails from time to time. No need for a whole mail server but the need for a sendmail like mail service. Installation: apt-get install...

    RamNode Down?

    Considering the timezones the timing was perfect to catch RamNode cold. But deleting (reinstall) the vps of users? This attack is at the expenses of others to damage a host. Can't believe the whole thing and the lower stairs ethics of the attacker. Heads up @RamNode. Hopefully you can now get...

    Pros/cons of owning own IPs

    Totally agree with it. In my point of view this is the difference betweeen a hosting company (owning everything) and resellers.

    KVM, LUKS, I/O

    As long as there is shared memory the host can always catch the encrytion key out of the shared memory. Second thing is that you have to enter the key through VNC on boot. Third thing the disk access is decrypted if the server is running. The host can just jump into your VM. I would just...
