    Our new logo

    My opinion: Don't wait for more feedback, swap it asap and work up new marketing to include it.

    Zimmerman found not guilty.... Your thoughts?

    Not my job to have an opinion. Not sure where everyone (not necessarily here) gets off thinking they know everything about everything. This is for people who were there to know what happened, and for a judge and jury to determine the validity of the charges filed against him. Justice is not...

    What happened with Robert Clarke?

    Smartest move he's made in a while.

    SwiftVM Shutting Down

    Well, can't be mad at them for being honest. They gave it an honest try, obviously learned a lot in the process, and never left their clients without notice. Best of luck to them in their futures.

    WHMCS Vuln again?

    Someone needs to teach this kid what it's like to get punched in the face, that's all I'm saying. I'm not being unfair, I needed a good punch in the face at one point in my life. I got it too. Anyone in Canada? Obviously I'm joking, except about his need for a cold introduction to reality. If...

    What are you using IPv6 for?

    We're holding out for IPv7. (I joke)

    PhoenixVPS SSD-Cached VPS Review

    Looks good. Bandwidth never drops to bad levels to some of the furthest locations tested. That E5-2609 is a beast in the right hands, which I know includes Marc.

    Looking for a business name (and domain name)

    I trolled godaddy domain auctions until I saw "catalysthost" float across my screen. The rest is history. Maybe you'll have some similar luck.

    Do you think this will make to the Market?

    I don't think it would make it into consumer hands in the US, at least. Our government is pretty strictly opposed to us having any potential upper hand. That's not even the paranoid side of me talking ;)

    SSH Attacks

    Just watches for IPs that try to hit port 22 on a bunch of IPs on the node at once. One less person hit from a dumb password, one less ticket/termination/angry review ;)

    SSH Attacks

    Ssh check? Yeah I love that thing. Not a false positive yet. I modified it to write to a new chain and I just flush the chain every day. If a single ip pisses me off enough I just black hole it.

    SSH Attacks

    "Hacking" is a sensitive word between the US and China. There's a lot of blame on both sides of the table. I believe a popular theory is that a lot of these scans from China are government sponsored to gain any intelligence or innovations that they can, from US government/business. The US...

    Anyone using a YubiKey for SSH authentication?

    This looks promising: http://code.google.com/p/yubico-pam/wiki/YubikeyAndSSHViaPAM I use Duo (free on phone) for 2 step auth for wordpress & ssh, but only on low priority stuff as I really don't know if tomorrow it becomes a liability. I like that my phone pops up and requests my permission to...

    Best password manager? What are you using?

    A paper notebook wrapped with barbed wire and I keep a gun on me at all times. You think your passwords are safe. Mine leaves a trail of blood, mostly my own.

    Who can offer me the cheapeat vps on the planet?

    Beat me to it. I was thinking something in the neighborhood of $3000. Totally sustainable.

    Do you send abuse emails?

    The words "uphill battle" come to mind but I do believe it absolutely vital that misused IPs be reported. I'll report US residential/datacenter IPs. I'll just block anything malicious from China Telecom (because their abuse email rejects anything I send) and I black hole ecatel. Picking your...

    Why high RAM vps?

    Hosting a lot of clients in cPanel will easily make you keep a lot of memory in your back pocket for a rainy day.

    KVM in Atlanta (34 Peachtree)

    Go hit up their TinyVZ brand now. It's worth it.

    Reserving Disk Space you Purchased from the Oversold VPS providers

    Oh dear. The thought of letting a node get that low makes me cringe.
