    Incero Review - AVOID

    Well I was impressed seeing another provider with Columbus, Ohio, recently. Capitol city of Ohio.  State capitols have bandwidth  probably always. New York city metro certainly, consider.  That includes Philadelphia and nearly all of New England for consideration. Metro DC. Western Virginia...

    SolusVM WHMCS Module Vulnerability

    Wow.  That's a total hack job... Full access. Wish this info would have waited until after their "audit" :)

    Incero Review - AVOID

    The biggest thing about another provider offer these days is not seeing such on the same ding-a-ling everyone else has as their networks. If I were jumping into this industry, I'd be looking in markets that aren't already saturated with every Tom, Dick and Harry offering the same services at...

    ChicagoVPS / CVPS Hacked. New SolusVM exploit? [PT 2/2]

    Wow.  That is bad. That node was being backed up to server with Colocrossing in Los Angeles on a weekly basis (198.23.250.202): select * from nodes where hostname like 'la-vps19%'...

    VPS Services In Metro-Detroit / Detroit?

      I remember a "datacenter" in past several years in Chicago where vandals crashed and robbed the place I believe twice. Inner cities aren't any place for sane business folks, at least in the major US metros.

    Incero Review - AVOID

      Well, I think there are more options than Incero and Colocrossing even at the low price point. I scratch my head when folks think these are the only options.

    Forum downtime / maintenance RFO

      They call that a "feature"?  That isn't a feature.    Why would anyone running a site want to see their posts disappear from their site?

    ChicagoVPS / CVPS Hacked. New SolusVM exploit? [PT 2/2]

    0-for-3 = 0% success rate. :( Were you on different geographic nodes and still managed this?

    This post made me laugh: l00k1ng for phr33 VPS plezze!

      Ahh, are you subscribing to the Fabozzi school of thought now?

    ChicagoVPS / CVPS Hacked. New SolusVM exploit? [PT 2/2]

    So, who is still down at ChicagoVPS?  Everyone get their accounts sorted out?

    Forum downtime / maintenance RFO

    Yeah, lots of posts no appearing in public. How you are able to get it figured out and documented for long term sanity.

    ChicagoVPS / CVPS Hacked. New SolusVM exploit? (Content Restored) [PT. 1/2]

    Fabozzi never fails to amaze me with his abuse of the English language.   He calls this SITUATION a scenario? Nothing imagined about it.  Nothing planned.  It is pure post-apocalypse mopping of the floors.  Scenario would be appropriate if he had contingency planning and policies in place which...

    Incero Review - AVOID

    The thread topic wandering, it happens even in normal conversation, unless you interact with robots. I've never understood why folks care so much about such.  Getting the topic back on topic, well that is self correcting via participation from others. Now, what I will say is CC is rather...

    Using mutt to send mail from a Gmail account...

      Ahh all the time - if this send messages directly out when configured and had some easy means to output a structured email... (as opposed to a one liner pipe). I have a person I help with technical job aspects who lives in browser with 50 tabs open and bunches of other job-necessary crap...

    VPS Services In Metro-Detroit / Detroit?

    Definitely not a local market I think would be very compelling or lucrative.   Detroit has become the land of $2k or less for a house.  For population 25 years and over in Detroit: High school or higher: 69.6% Ouchie there! The crime rate for last 10 years is only 3x the national average...

    ChicagoVPS / CVPS Hacked. New SolusVM exploit? (Content Restored) [PT. 1/2]

    Yes, indeed.  Odd to have nodes go down 24 hours+ after the attack.  Wondering if things were left running on some of these servers from the attack. I'd be mighty concerned if I were on a node that did this on Tuesday.

    ChicagoVPS / CVPS Hacked. New SolusVM exploit? (Content Restored) [PT. 1/2]

    That's very strange.  Know I saw others say Tuesday they went down.  Pretty sure that was the admins trying to fix something and probably declaring the node unsalvageable, necessitating a full server rebuild.

    ChicagoVPS / CVPS Hacked. New SolusVM exploit? (Content Restored) [PT. 1/2]

      Yeah well, they aren't backing everything up. Backing all this up across the internet = mega slow process in mass. I'm pretty sure if you are on one of the following nodes, your data is gone for good:   +--------+-----------+-----------------------------+ | nodeid | name      | hostname...

    ChicagoVPS / CVPS Hacked. New SolusVM exploit? (Content Restored) [PT. 1/2]

    The database for SolusVM was borrowed on the 17th. RamNode was hit by this Solus issue a day or more before this. RamNode got taken down Sunday morning 9AM or earlier Eastern time on Sunday, June 16, 2013. ChicagoVPS noticed their hack and node damage around 2AM Eastern time on Monday, June...
