    What local DNS servers are you using?

    Edis provides the two Austria DNS servers in Austria (and "logging completely disabled" on their 2 servers).  Many of the servers in other countries are run/donated by private individuals and the ones in the US at least seem to be prone to frequent downtime.  Global list of the project's servers...

    BlueVM's domain name was hijacked

    There's lots of results in Google for all major registrars and domain hijacking.  GoDaddy was in the news earlier this year after hijackers used social engineering on GoDaddy's support to hijack a domain that was the contact email for a valuable Twitter account. Going back a few years, does...

    Talk Show Host Starts IP Spoofing Friendly VPS Service In Buffalo

    LET deleted the offer so for anyone who missed it google cache BigBucks has been advertising on the skiddie forums so an offer on LET is usually the next step up the ladder for many of these HF hosts (and probably very fertile ground for customer acquisition). They also allow "small time...

    Talk Show Host Starts IP Spoofing Friendly VPS Service In Buffalo

    I'm torn between laughing and a massive facepalm. I found this offer on LET and thought I'd share because every line of the offer, WHOIS, and website is flashing a warning sign. Jerry Springer, hee hee. Fake WHOIS, fake address on site, fake LLC, IP spoofing enabled, lorem ipsum text, blank...

    WTF is self-hosted?  I use Bit.ly's "Branded Short Domain" feature (aka custom domain).

    Do you tell a customer your server specs if he asks?

    Vendor: "Heh, wait until he finds out he's sharing that 1Gbps port with 300 torrenters and will be lucky to get dial-up speeds" Vendor "Heh, wait until he finds out I oversold the CPU and I/O on that E5 to the point where he'd get better performance from a Pentium Pro" If you want painfully...

    These types of projects are possible to start but until someone turns a profit nobody is going to be convinced they have a viable business model and are sustainable, or stated another way...it was possible for WebVan to start their little grocery delivery project and it was possible for them to...

    Collaboration Script/System/Solutions

    Alfresco does all of that. :) Alfresco also shares Sharepoint's newbie unfriendly administration and installation features.  There is more of a learning curve required than installing and administering a simple product like a forum script or SolusVM.  On the plus side, Alfresco community...

    Your 768MB+ specs in NL for $5 monthly gets you one of the NSA specials :P DigitalOcean or Vultr.

    SolusVM SOLD and acquired by OnApp

    These are recent actual quotes (borrowed from LET) from a SolusVM using middleman provider (who shall go nameless) when something went wrong which illustrate why I have always avoided middlemen when I'm buying something mission critical like a dedicated server (or a "redundant cloud")...

    SolusVM SOLD and acquired by OnApp

    Nor would I want to buy anything from you (or anyone) that you're playing the middleman on. :P The federation concept reminds me of a wholesale version of OneProvider's (now discontinued) retail OneCloud offering.  I question how many buyers who are looking for a redundant HA cloud solution are...
