    ColoCrossing Companies

    Aye! @GVH-Jon,  I claim the HVH = CC claim.  @Kris will claim that too. Interesting people manning the tickets for HVH... At least one fellow is a lowend host :)  There was data that indicates the relationship being more than just a customer --- like HVH customer(s) being billed by CC. But...

    vpsBoard advertisements and availability

    Reliable aka Choopa! Seeing tons of Choopa love the past quarter or two.   DDoS protection though?  Haven't seen anyone chatting it up.  Must cost a hefty bundle.  Love their network though.

    The truth about ColoCrossing

    We all thought that Fran! Problem is I am 100% sure Rob came to CC via Jere. Remember Jere liked to try to give folks a chance to get involved in the industry, learn the support systems, etc.  It is why we saw one weird misplaced sysadmin/support person in CVPS dump initially. I am 100%...

    A sad state for VPS offers

    True @SeriesN.  Unsustainable pricing unless being funded by some other profit center.  Sliding positive income towards the loss leaders. No doubt CC is up to something far more sinister at this point.

    The truth about ColoCrossing

    Wowzers, where's my Captain to go with my @Jack. Jack needs a PIMP avatar. No kidding, they purged this from LEB/LET?  At least those clowns are consistent. So now the question is how many other folks are moving away from Colocrossing or reducing their servers there? Dirty, ugly underhanded...

    PHP advertising software --- recommendations?

    Anyone here run a site with self hosted ads? I am looking for recommendations for a PHP based advertising script/package (prefer FOSS or similar good licensing). Anything out there others recommend?

    If you're at Generation-Host - Backup your data NOW!

    Looks like their business was all over the place in offers (PBX, VPS, OnAPP, CDN, etc. etc. etc.). Spread themselves thin hunting for fish in the wrong pond I think.

    Follow Us - Colo@ Datacenter Facility Construction Progress

    Well server cases in general are a pretty big waste of cash.  Treating servers as slabs and modules with minimal casing would save a ton. Eliminating the PSU per server would where appropriate also save potentially and allow you to move that bulky part to a designated zone. I think it's...

    If you're at Generation-Host - Backup your data NOW!

    Never heard of them.  Or just don't remember seeing them. Sad how companies implode like this and abandon folks.    To those future fails out there, reach out in the same datacenter to other companies when this happens and see if someone is interested in assuming the clients --- at minimum.

    I like this thread and hearing about the various approaches implemented by folks we know in the community. Anyone know/care to speak about how much overall the aisle containments ads to the overall project costs as a percentage?

    Do you wear computer glasses? Share your experience

    10 inch screens will make you go blind in no time.   Have a netbook with one of those screens and it's about to be decommissioned and work as a server of some sort since ultra low power draw (good for solar powering).

    Rage4dns question.

    +1 for FlipHost.  Been a customer of FlipHost.  Just so folks know, the provider offered Rage4 doesn't include usage caps on lookups.  The only caps are the number of domains for the subscription amount by the provider.

    A sad state for VPS offers

    Every time I see such a disclaimer I want to say wow!  Someone with more restraint than mere old me. I have two CC locations with service :)   Backupsy wouldn't stop taunting me and they cut Continuum out so Chicago = CC now. The other sin in my pile is BuyVM and Buffalo.  Yeah I bought in...
