    Ideas -- How to "route" DNS traffic through multiple daemons

    I was under the impression DNSCrypt only worked with OpenDNS, which is untrustworthy anyway.

    Where do you think the best possible location for a VPS to be?

    If good latency is the objective, Chicago and Dallas are the best choices hands down. Dallas has the edge on Chicago if you have South American customers - I see a lot of strange routes from Brazil & friends to Chicago.

    Do a fresh install and check /etc/passwd immediately after logging in?

    Security incident at OVH

    Well, no such device means no such device. Looks like not every device is IPMI enabled. yes, I'm a member of the tautology club.

    Apple developer Web site hacked

    What's up with the recent rash of hacks? Ubuntu, OVH, Apple, all pretty big targets. I definitely think a security category would be an excellent addition to vpsBoard. Modmins, give us what we demand!

    Security incident at OVH

    Honestly, this seems like common practice with a lot of dedicated providers. Their less tech-savvy customers may not even login to the machine or even know how to. First step you should take when setting up a dedi is to remove any sort of access from the provider for this exact reason.

    Ubuntu Forums Hacked

    Their definition of 'hacker' doesn't match up to the skid's definition of 'hacker' though. The good part is that it was defaced, tells you the kid's green behind the ears and probably didn't do anything exceptionally nefarious.

    Whats up with VPSNodes? Summer isn't over yet, folks.

    You would think they would just get a different number after filthying that one. DIDs are dirt cheap.

    We're using 4x WD Red 3TB in each node. I just ran another set of dd tests and results are more like what I'd expect but still lacking. [scaveney@n1 ~]$ dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=64k count=16k conv=fdatasync; rm test 16384+0 records in 16384+0 records out 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied...

    New signature guidelines.

    Aww, I wanted to put something like this in my signature. :( Do I really have to take the fourth green out of my signature though?
