    MySQL Issues

    apt-get dist-upgrade That isn't grabbing the MySQL upgrade? I usually don't mess with "stuck" updates.   Have had lots of breakage trying to force the package. aptitude seems to do a tad better in my experience with updates. Have you done? apt-get update && apt-get upgrade Then try...

    MySQL Issues

    Well.   Is MySQL running to start with? Have you tried starting MySQL manually?  Will it start? Checked the system logs if so?

    Dedicated Servers Starting At $79.95 Intel Core i3 2100 Affordable Prices

    Yeah, so homepage shows FDC's locations. Do you even offer services at FDC? The other two images of datacenters are equally "borrowed" and I suspect you don't offer services out of either of those. Reseller hosting?  Yeah, that's shared hosting.  Totally different.   What you are doing is...

    Wagers: What other VPS companies does Colocrossing own / ghost operate

    That's funny :) Certain BuyVM's support isn't CC's.   Oh yeah, plus all of BuyVM"s locations aren't CC locations :) I am sure BuyVM has no problem paying their invoices.

    Wagers: What other VPS companies does Colocrossing own / ghost operate

    Alright gamblers and minor bettors, get your wagers in. What other VPS companies does Colocrossing own / ghost operate? We already know they seem to own/control Hudson Valley Host.  And have something to do with that Chicago outfit (nee BuffaoVPS). Which other VPS companies cross the radar of...

    Looking for high-storage, high-BW VPS

    Backupsy keeps getting mentioned.  They are in Illinois = US Central, not the east coast. I'd look around for offers out of Dacentec in North Carolina and GoRack in Jacksonville, Florida. Latency to both should be low, but test first.

    Is HVH owned by Colocrossing?

    Someone call Shinkle and ask him about CC's treatment of customers and how he felt about that...  He was pretty unhappy about Biloh's attitude and customer treatment.  Jon in particular has used a slew of aliases in support to deal with issues, often using those to ram tickets closed with non...

    Is HVH owned by Colocrossing?

      The entire BuffaloVPS fiasco remains highly relative and probably a big piece of the neverending puzzle of how those Buffalo guys do business and bend the rules.   LowendAdmin was all over BuffaloVPS being a front/shill company for CVPS. Although the company was using Buffalo in the name...

    So who volunteers to post a message over on the e-vile LET saying "Hudson Valley Host = Colocrossing --- the proof..."? ...basically with just a small teaser and a link to this thread.

    Is HVH owned by Colocrossing?

    A link to the promo would help piecing this all together tightly.  Any idea of the managed VPS details --- RAM, disk and BW?   HVH's normal full rate plans are here: http://hudsonvalleyhost.com/managedvps.php

    $25 invoice amount..... right? What was that for from HVH?  Can you link the purchased item and edit that into the original post?

    Is HVH owned by Colocrossing?

    So CC isn't/wasn't supporting the hardware on the RTO?  That's insanity on their end.  It's a rental.  After 24 payments, well on your own.  Before then?  Yeah surprised someone has sued/contested invoices/etc. over hardware failures and long downtime. Any host who doesn't lock down the SLAs...

    Anti-anti-spam measures

    Solution to prevent this harvesting is to make the email and image and do so with a non-traditional font.  Something readable by humans, but not so simple to be OCR'd. I never push emails out in public.  But I've been know to push folks to a contact form :)  That works and gets around the...

    Is HVH owned by Colocrossing?

    I am a tad stumped why Ernie is doing support.   He's not a technical fellow and is employed gainfully in unrelated industry. It might have something to do with the outsourced  support desk somewhere in India he's not using any more. CC providing support desk for him now too :) ?  Hey, don't...
