They're likely going to have to rewrite it. The way backups are handled is a complete and utter clusterfuck. For the longest time the platform never even *made* working backups. The backups would be a few K. Yes, the primary exploit that solus had was that they took straight $_POST right to a...

Zahra was a staffer of Joel's, I remember that. No one really knows where Joel is. Liam claims to still hear from him once in a blue moon but who knows. Last time I heard from him is when he called me before the Vegas move to wish me good luck with it. I got back home and never heard from him...

WHT uses a 15 minute timer so that's what I'd recommend. It gives enough time to catch any minor spelling errors/grammar but doesn't allow for someone to come back a day later and start changing replies. The 'EDITED' tags are a nice touch to help keep everyone honest. Francisco

Jon has personally said to me that Joel started trying to hock the site within weeks of getting ownership. There was someone who was bidding against Jon (be it they were willing to pay more I don't know) but that in the end CC took ownership. The change of hands happened when CC got their ad on...

Who knew you weren't supposed to pass $_GET and $_POST to the command line on a SETUID root process? Francisco

I wasn't aware it happened until someone brought it up in the volumedrive thread. Francisco

So one fun thing I'm plotting for this system is the ability to mount a read-only backup/snapshot into your running VM. This will only be supported in KVM for now until I can come up with a really clever way of doing it on OVZ. I may end up providing a file browser of sorts to allow them to...

They're still going on. Didn't Burst sell their UK location? Francisco

They're entirely opt-in :) Francisco

You're still asking a lot, especially with Windows :) Francisco

You can't do Windows and cPanel at the same time. Francisco

It's easy to have profit when you never pay your vendors. I could offer $10/y 2GB's if I used stolen equipment, never had to pay my datacenters or my guys, etc. Francisco

15% is sounding pretty OK. Originally it was going to be 'all backups fire at this time', but it wouldn't be very hard to allow users to change what time of the day backups fire. Give them a 1 week view, let them set their start times and it'll automatically fire. Backups are automated and...

Thanks! KVM templates were rolled out earlier this week. Right now we're looking for feedback on pricing for backups: http://vpsboard.com/topic/1767-feedback-on-prices-for-backupssnapshots/

That opening line is so bad. I need to stop changing my mind on sentence construction mid way. Francisco

Hello everyone, We're currently working on adding snapshots & automated backup options to stallion. For backups we're looking to offering keep 2 weeks of rotating snapshots as backups for each user that buys on. Users will also be able to take snapshots at any point and reinstall their VM's...

I'd do direct Choopa. The network looks nice and the pricing is solid. Francisco

You aren't the first alas. I have a lot of people on my case to get out of Buffalo since they refuse to use our east coast spots. They aren't making excuses either since they have mid/high priced services in LV and want to match the same on the east coast. Francisco

It's up to vote. I already brought this up to Jon earlier in the month though. Francisco

CC is better than EGI since CC doesn't fuck us out of any resources we pay for. Minus a few crap routes that they adjusted we've not had any network complaints. While I would love to have level3 again it's just not going to happen at the price bracket we pay for. Jon only listed we got a gbit...
