    Red Hat, Inc Aquires CentOS

    Ubuntu doesn't position itself as the enterprise production distro and it has long since lost it's chance to be perceived as such. It is a fine server, plenty capable of production, equally capable as Debian. However, perception is key. Ubuntu takes more risks with package upgrades than Debian...

    Red Hat, Inc Aquires CentOS

    Figures. Let's face it. CentOS is a unique distro in that it's generally thought of as the most well maintained RHEL variant for production systems. Either we're looking at the time for Scientific to rise, a new distro to fill it's shoes, or a Debian revolution. I mean there's Fedora but I...

    The truth about Mao and BuyVM

    You know there's one thing I got from this entire thread. Mao, you need to take up drinking. Seriously. Join us. This is called peer pressure. Also, bro, you need to realize just how much of what Francisco says to you is purely to watch you freak out, because it's so easy to make you lose it...

    Anyone using vestaCP? vestaCP review?

    I've used ubuntu 12 and didn't have that problem. Make sure to run "dpkg --purge bind9" first but I would think it would give an error before it installs if it was already installed.

    ColoCrossing Makes List of Largest ARIN Free Pool IP Acquirers in 2013

    ARIN has so much to deal with they probably overlook some key details. They've learned how to work the system is all.

    VPS Slabbing - Who Does it and Admits to It?

    I think one benefit is less impact from a kernel panic on one "node." It depends on your reason for splitting up a node. If it's to inflate numbers and oversell to a stupid degree while making the end user think its different physical nodes....I might judge you a bit. But if it's to minimize the...

    We have a winner. Why else would anyone be so invested in the bottom of the barrel? Easy sales, easy justification.

    LunaNode being booted from SingleHop

    Spam can go on for weeks before reports. Monitor port 25 and open a ticket at x number of simultaneous connections. It's worth it.

    LunaNode being booted from SingleHop

    The spammer must have really been successful for it to come to this. Heavy handed as SpamHaus may be, they would be working toward their own irrelevance if a little spam caused them to start blacklisting such large subnets every day. After a while they would just be a list of subnets that, if...

    UGVPS = Thomas Dale = Crystal Dale = ChicagoVPS = Dig the Mine

    I believe Crystal has been in contact with them over it. With the complexity of the situation, they may just be more interested in leaving it alone unless legal action is involved. In their position, that's probably what I would do, because the details are so twisted that any action probably...

    md5 hash of process names

    I've found md5 hash to be a great way to identify abusive processes that usually belong to bitcoin miners and DOS applications, because the new trend seems to be random generated file names. Don't know if that's what you're doing, but if so...great minds think alike :)

    UGVPS = Thomas Dale = Crystal Dale = ChicagoVPS = Dig the Mine

    This is the key. Here's what proves what I wanted to know, which was whether or not Maartin actually had values or was just very good at acting like he did. I needed to know this so that I could finally know for sure whether or not LET was hopeless. Here's the only thing that really matters...
