I usually don't get involved in messes like this... but here's a little something yanked from from our own logs: 50.46.111.187 manage.buyvm.net - [16/Jun/2013:02:51:56 -0700] "GET /centralbackup.php HTTP/1.1" 301 0 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_3) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML...

We both write code for the company... and then we decide what's best for the company, not what's best for us :P

Yar, but that's not what I'm positing... I've seen some of Solus' source (actual source, not some de-ioncubed/etc).. and it's horrible.  Beyond horrible.  Ditto with WHMCS - the source I've seen there is less than pleasant.  So and and so forth with other panels and CMSes.  ESPECIALLY the...

No, it's not, but that's no reason to defend him either.  In case you didn't notice, Fabozzi tried to step up and take the first swing... let him suffer the consequences (or if you must insist on playing mediator, give a less biased admonition). 

I never said it did... I was giving some advice on a specific situation, which it seems you read right over.  But if it works for you, then godspeed sir :P 

Out of curiosity.. how are you folks determining what's "more secure"?  Number of exploits?  Because then you have to factor in obscurity and how well used the alternative actually is.  Sure, it's easy to claim that product B with one exploit in 3 years is more secure than product A, with 4...

Not always.  I've used login tracking to deal with abuse cases as well.. "but I wasn't using the VPS or account then, it couldn't have been me spamming" 'And yet my access logs say different...', etc. I do have a separate table and module running that handle audits concerning where IPs change...

Yar, it's typically not noticeable until you get into the higher numbers... but give an inch and they'll take a mile.. offer 50 and they'll somehow justify how that absolutely have to have 100+ IRC vhosts  :rolleyes:.  I honestly don't remember if we approved your request or not (If I handled...

  You offer OpenVZ, right?  Might want to warn your clients that actually having that many IPs on a single instance will seriously delay startup/reboot times for that VM.  And if you have a node full of 50+ IP VMs crash... you could likely finish a short novel before those VMs are all back...

Yup, sorry about that >_<  My production database is has the column labeled as ipaddr (for consistency with Demi and a few other tables), and it's actually an unsigned integer, not a varchar :P;  I'd just simple'd it up a little bit when I wrote the tutorial.  I'd corrected the mistake in the...

The problem with that approach is that connectivity to the bot may not always be guaranteed - IRCds are very prone to DDoS and other attacks. Not to mention the complications with having to then setup an ACL within said bot to ensure that you're only accepting add commands from the panel - and...

What I ended up doing for quite some time until Fran finished writing Stallion1 was simply using bash/sql scripts. On create, it would pick 16 consecutive aviailable v6 addresses, assign to the VM via vzctl (to ensure the confs were updated), and correct the SQL records. KVM was more or less...

Heh, both have solid reasons for being there. Too many people will either stop paying, or be terminated for abuse, and simply try to open a new account to avoid their history. I also see a good deal of people "opening an account for a friend", and there has never been a good justification as...

&nbsp; &nbsp; Well, we know it's not for everyone, but we do prefer to be a host that people can easily relate with. Jarland put it best.. I don't remember his exact quote, but it was along the lines of wanting to talk to a provider on a first name basis and know you could relax with them...

Not really, when you think about it.  When has government EVER done something more efficiently than a privatized competitor?  The DMV and Post Office are two examples of that.

Why you disgrace Cooper like that :(

I won't touch anything Apple with a 10m pole on principle.  Typically not a fan of tablets/etc (they're just not efficient for real work).. but awhile back I picked up an ASUS TF300T with the keyboard dock.  Very solid tablet, and even despite Android it makes a pretty decent netbook.

1-3 hours a night.  Body eventually adapted.
