    Bash Remote Exploit (https://securityblog.redhat.com/2014/09/24/bash-specially-crafted-environment-v

    A bowl of dicks.... Bahahaha... never heard that term tossed about prior.  Somewhere in Africa..... right now.... A proof of concept isn't something new.   The notices in various places *probably* mentioned or pointed to similar.  Sort of have to usually prove the issue exists to say here is...

    Does your VPS provider install patches in your container in stealth?

    I am unsure what gets labeled as security updates vs. the many updates I see in such normally. My issue isn't per se the container access part, it's just that updates are being done without folks being aware.  Along the way random breakage I suppose could happen.  It's one more random thing a...

    Does your VPS provider install patches in your container in stealth?

    In light of the latest BASH exploit I've been patching and updating things. Someone pointed me to Vultr and their approach where it appears they maintain inside the container access: Appears they have unattended security updates inside folks containers if others are reading correctly and so am...

    BTSync - Bittorrent Sync file replication Mega Thread

    Does BTSync offer remote file view/preview without downloading the whole data set? "... but it got pretty resource heavy scanning through 20 or 30k small files." That's not a ton of files.  Those were spread out and not a single directory worth, right?

    BuyVM 128MB OpenVZ NJ

    Your story @Tim is similar to mine with BuyVM. Rare company in a sea of child operators, hacker wanna bes and gaming kids pretending to be hosts. Trust goes around a long race track and the pony stable runs the good race.  Never been let down by them and I know they've taken a lot of bad...

    BTSync - Bittorrent Sync file replication Mega Thread

    Well I just got daring and spun up a new remote VPS to fuss with Syncthing.... It's damn nifty once you figure out the plumbing.  It's a bit slow getting started and figuring out what to config and where. Web interface on it too [built in]  pops open on localhost which is dumb on remote servers...

    VPN.sh Launching New VPN brand FixedRoute

    ^--- What can I say other than I too really expected a cleanup of vpn.sh along the way.  There have been major issues and major long spans of no replies from ownership.    Often right after all that I'd see some limited offer buy now promo thing and would mumble to myself "OH GREAT, f#@king...

    BTSync - Bittorrent Sync file replication Mega Thread

    Well Syncthing *looks* nice, but they are shipping updates darn near daily. Android version installed and nothing configged and it's taking a chunk of battery. Meh.  Android the OS that will bring back the backphone battery ;) @sv01 "but for files that are constantly change, btsync will...

    Kansas City, Missouri Based Datashack gets into Gigabit Municipal ISP Business with FREE Services

    Kansas City is an old city.   Can't see them running most of it any other way than telephone poles as right of ways would be littered and non existent in most places. I know Google was being blah about pole fees with KC proper and some early special treatment / franchise whining from others.  ...

    hubiC by OVH 25 GB of free storage in the cloud!

    Well I tried Hubic.... Unsure if this is how all the services at OVH roll or what.... 120KB/s download speeds from Hubic.  Meh,  retro transfer speeds. Their legal docs say capped to 10Mbit on the service. I *may* try monkeying with their Linux hack in the datacenter and see if anything...

    T-mobile USA Customer Endorsements here? $80 Unlimited.

    I've been a Verizon customer and a customer of their prior companies for decades.   I don't the like direction anything dealing with them is heading. Their throughput here 3G wise is a laugh.  Calls and texts are fine though. They are good when traveling (i.e. usually have signal).   ...

    BTSync - Bittorrent Sync file replication Mega Thread

    Appears that a bunch of us are experimenting with file replication solutions lately or maybe have such running for a bit. This is for BTSync / Bittorrent Sync. Some questions: 1. Anyone successfully running BTSync on a LAN/WAN on all internal IP arrangement?   Does it work with such or does...

    Synchronised Home Directory / Workspace

    We should get some tutorials constructed - even if short cliff notes versions for the various file replication tools at play here (BTSync, Syncthing, Seafile, etc.). Anyone have such for BTSync before I waste 2 hours searching and failing?

    looking for dedicated sever

    On site support is pretty important the few times a year something actually really breaks. When it comes to who provides such, you can toss out all the resellers, as you will have monkeys in the middle and ticket times will be in hours instead of fractions of hours. It is a pre-sales question...

    CloudatCost Coming Soon 2.0

    We've covered CloudAtCost here on vpsBoard with mixed fanfare. They have a well produced video teasing about their 2.0 re-launch of CloudAtCost coming soon.     It's nice to peer a bit into their operation and get a view of their setup, datacenter, etc. [hint to others]...

    looking for dedicated sever

    You just have to keep reminding me of Reliable Hosting Services :)  Tempting. Any idea about their network and network protection?   Dacentec, a long favorite of the cheapos out there continues to get dinged by DDOS attacks, so constant concern and bunch of people looking for alternatives.
