    GVH former head guy Eric Walstrom Charged for Hacking His High School

    Something similar happened when I was in high school. Except, I went to a private school so the kid was quietly "asked to find another school" and disappeared. It only came out a few months later, when someone was like "Hey, whatever happened to XYZ?".

    So much to do!

    That might be the best answer to my question. It has so many features that I hadn't considered, but we'd be able to make amazing use of. I'm going to have to take a look. Thank you for the suggestion! At everyone else: I do have a white board, but I need something where we can keep track of...

    So much to do!

    As we grow, I noticed that I am getting very disorganized. While I have a great idea of what needs to be done, I occasionally forget something or forget to inform my employees so there's some miscommunication somewhere and everything goes awry. I was thinking about a case/task management...

    How many of you have your own hosts?

    When we decided to deploy onto our own hardware, instead of reselling, it was for a few reasons. 1) To reduce our overall monthly spending. 2) To increase our overall profit margin, long term. 3) To allow us more flexibility and control over our servers. However, we also would gain the...

    Any experience with virtualizor?

    We use it for our OpenVZ. Quite a few bugs, but it's usable.

    No Good Deed Goes Unrewarded: ColoCrossing Boots the Booters / DDoS

    I'd be interested in hearing how this affects normal clients who push a lot of bandwidth intermittently.

    ColoCrossing's Buffalo, NY network is slowing down? Too many Spammers?

    See, I actually really liked the CC Spamhaus listing. I didn't have to worry about selling to spammers. Any client that wanted lots of IPs wasn't mailing. I still have some of these clients and they're fantastic to work with. So, it's not all bad!  :P DDoS mitigation isn't as simple as adding...

    That's actually very affordable if it brings in one or two clients a week.

    Webhostingtalk / Inet Interactive SOLD!

    It ranges from $300 for the shared section to $999 a month for the dedicated section (weekly). It might be cheaper in a few other sections, but those are what I recall.

    Things to consider when choosing Colocation?

    You might want to find out if the facility carries/offers spare parts on-site. It can help prevent prolonged periods of downtime. While this is personal, you never know when you'll need a backup.

    Webhostingtalk / Inet Interactive SOLD!

    I don't recall any discussions between us moderators about advertising volume. If you have any ideas, I'd be glad to bring them up and get a discussion going. Sadly, it's not so simple as just changing posting times as everyone would get pissed off. I have an iNet/WebHostingTalk shirt, but I've...

    Webhostingtalk / Inet Interactive SOLD!

    Thought I'd pop in here and just say a few things. iNet, for the time being, will remain an independent organization. The only change is that Dennis is leaving us and we will have a new person between iNet and the moderators/administrators. At this time, I can tell you that I know of not a...

    BoltVM review

    So I just noticed this. I know this wasn't directed at us, however it's still offensive. We have been working extraordinarily hard to provide some pretty damn fine service and just because our VPS clientele are hosted with ColoCrossing, doesn't mean we're anywhere near death. In-fact, DediCube...

    What is better: Renting or owning your hardware?

    Here's the problem. You'll only save a small amount if you're colocating a few servers. It really only starts to make sense, financially, once you've grown past a certain point. Let's do some quick calculations: Let's say you can purchase some server for $1,000 and colocate it for $100 a month...
