    Static website generator

    Kirby has an admin panel. I admit I've never used Kirby, but I've admired it from afar.

    Static website generator

    I liked Pelican, which is python-based. Really, there's a million...Jekyll, Pelican, Hugo are names I hear a lot but there are many others.

    Hey MannDude! How was the rebirth behind the scenes...?

    Because I'm curious: (1) So vpsBoard moved from IPB to XenForo. Why? I know you've groaned about IPB (and I have some negative stories of my own time adminning it) but I'm curious what specifically drove the move. (2) I'm sure XenForo sells/offers a converter but still...I'm amazed it...

    Looking for Windows 7-10 VPS

    I don't think I've ever seen sound drivers as a VPS requirement before :-) I'm that's some kind of software dependency.

    Unexpected

    Me, too. The "hosting discussion board" world is - LET - vpsB - WHT - HostingDiscussion though maybe only I read that one...it's glacial WHT has long since become a boring joke. I'm glad vpsB is back to break up the LowEndMonoCulture.

    Starting a VPS business with $10,000. How would you spend it?

    Great!  And how much have you raised prices on your unmanaged, lowend services? I ask because from what I've seen, the vast majority of customers will leave and go to the next guy who offers the exact same thing at a slightly lower price.

    Starting a VPS business with $10,000. How would you spend it?

    Except that logic doesn't work in markets with extremely low barrier to entry, and there is practically none in the hosting industry.

    100,000

    Freakin' sweet. So jealous. Congrats @MannDude!  vpsboard is hosted at GVH, right?  At least, that's the rumor I've been spreading.

    want a VPS 100% DDOS Protected

    Your other LowEndDDOSProtection options are SecureDragon and Ramnode.  Probably others, but be aware that most LowEndProviders who say "DDOS protection included!" are just hosting at OVH, which may or may not meet your needs.

    Who is your fave premium Wordpress studio?

    I've looked at: - Elegant Themes (long time subscriber, they seem to be all Divi all the time these days) - StudioPress (have heard mixed reviews of genesis) There's also ThemeForest, MojoThemes, etc but I'd prefer a studio that provides support rather than a large market where you...

    How to do the following...

    I don't believe you. In my experience, being a mail admin sucks no matter what you do, and has for at least 25 years.  Weird concepts to master, weird syntax (regardless of mail package), arms race with bad guys, shotguns constantly going off as people try to defend themselves, crappy...

    How to proxy port 8080 on cPanel?

    I have Jira setup and running on port 8080.  Let's call the server webserver.domain1.com.  If I go to http://webserver.domain1.com:8080 I am into Jira. I want to be able to go to http://jira.example.com to get to Jira.  I do not want to enter the 8080 part.  Note that example.com is hosted on...

    Starting a VPS business with $10,000. How would you spend it?

    So in all seriousness and admitting my ignorance, I ask why. The D120 has 4c/8t of 2.2Ghz Xeon.  Not a monster but assuming the box was doing very little else besides network and RAID md, is that not enough horsepower to drive RAID10?  Ultimately, there will never be more than 80MB/sec or so...

    Starting a VPS business with $10,000. How would you spend it?

    Dammit, now I can't stop running numbers :-) OVH Xeon D-120 with 5x6TB, setup maybe 24 x 1TB and sell them for $10-15 each...hmmm...

    Starting a VPS business with $10,000. How would you spend it?

    This sparked an idea in my head, and so I ran some numbers. 7EUR a TB would be great, but let's say you wanted to sell storage for $10/TB.  Is that profitable?  Maybe if you build the box yourself. Here is what I came up with if you don't: OVH E5, 64GB RAM (overkill), 12x6TB drives, I...
