    Recent openssl website defacement

    OpenVZ allows vzctl enter <your container> without a password, so I believe he is saying you're only as safe as your host.

    Big RAM VPS - who actually uses them and for what?

    The only VPS that I have with more than 512MB of ram runs Windows. Even then I could probably get by with 1GB as I just use it for RDP. I'm a big fan of optimization, I've got Observium running on a 128 RamNode SSD monitoring 35 servers and hosting a frequently used looking glass, still...

    Cloudflare - why backends are easy to find

    From what I've seen most people use CloudFlare in an attempt to stop some automated attacks like WP login bots or to speed up page load times. It's not particularly effective at either of those tasks on its own but W3 Total Cache + WordFence + CloudFlare makes a nice combo. CloudFlare is not...

    DO not scrubbing disks?

    Yeah this is old news.  They give you an option to scrub your disk on Droplet destroy and tell you how long it will take.  I don't bother as I don't store anything sensitive on DO, I just use it as a dev environment to test scripts and such, if they want to recover my LXDE image, go for it.

    List of VPS/Dedi providers using Colo Crossing

    I flagged that post as soon as I saw it, a non-response within a very short time should = a pulled offer.  Even if everyone knows who uses who as their DC, if its in the rules for posting an offer it should be required, no exceptions.  I'm sure there's many others if I go comb through them...

    List of VPS/Dedi providers using Colo Crossing

    Cough... Like this one?   We don't have many rules here, the ones we do have should be followed.   Did you guys get Native IPv6 sorted in Choopa?

    Bring out your crystal ball: Some IPv6 Questions

    That would destroy the ColoCrossing business model.

    Computer opinions?

    That's a decent barebones, I wish they had that in Canada.  I'm building a desktop as my post XMAS present to myself as I'm tired of working on a laptop.  I'm looking at an AMD A-10, already grabbed 8GB of DDR3 1866, just trying to find a decent SSD, the Samsung 840's are what is usually used...

    DigitalOcean to add Singapore Region by the end of January

    Peering seems to be shitty in Asia, but I'm still looking forward to using up some credits, I hope there isn't going to be a premium price attached to SG.

    Recommendations for knowledge base software

    I have used this one, I've played around with some others that have more features and options but I didn't need anything fancy.

    Recommendations for knowledge base software

    Wikis are a nice choice but if you're not familiar with wiki syntax it can be annoying.  I've actually used a WordPress plugin that works really well and is extremely easy to use/setup.

    Cheapest source of a WHMCS license?

    I think BigTim is the cheapest around unless you want to host it on a reseller package =/  I've been using Blesta, I like it quite a bit. cI've also been looking at Pancake App it's quite simple but if you don't need any kind of integration with a web hosting panel it should work nicely.

    LunaNode being booted from SingleHop

    So you've submitted a delisting request for http://www.spamhaus.org/sbl/query/SBL207665  and you've received no response?  I've always found them quite reasonable to work with and not prone to false positives like some of the other listing services.
