Yes, you should be able to access IPv6 sites if you setup a tunnel on your VPS.  The transfer of data through to your VPS would be through IPv4, then the VPS would connect to the host using IPv6.  So it would be IPv4 to IPv6 to IPv4 (on the return path).  Edit: I should add, It of course...

I guess I jumped to the conclusion they were in the same boat as OVH.  I'm glad they are using this as just a loss leader to gain marketing.  I'm not sure about whether that is a good marketing plan or not, while it does get their name out there, it gets it out to the low end market not the high...

Just ridiculous, these french companies are just being lifted up by their government and able to sell at extreme losses, doesn't  make sense to me. But seeing as those servers were introduced in 2009 by Dell and they don't exist anywhere else, I'm thinking the servers ended up being a huge...

Update for my previous post above.  I had figured unlimited would work with simfs, but apparently it doesn't.  So instead of unlimited:unlimited, just use incredibly high limits like 100T:100T and 9223372036854775807:9223372036854775807 for inodes.  The limits will basically be non-existent in...

It depends what your definition of cloud server is.  DO and Vultr are only instant deployment and hourly billing.  That is the extent of their cloud.  Other than that they are just standard virtual machines running on SSD. AFAIK neither run high availability or a duplicated/shared storage...

For hosts that have the ability for customization, I recommend looking into LVM with thin provisioning.   Steps to take: Set the default layout back to simfs in /etc/vz/vz.conf Create a thin volume, aka sparse, (volume that grows in size as it is filled) for each container with the size you...

Didn't have writeback enabled on the one server using P410i but did have a RAID degradation caused by power supply issues.  The other servers were software RAID and software SSD caching with hard reboots.  It seems like it is occurring on all types of systems as the two other users involved were...

@Kruno and others.  Recent circumstances has made me reconsider ploop images as a whole.  We have been using them for over a year and not until the past month have we seen this problem but it appears to be a major problem.  I have had this problem with both HW RAID and SW RAID where there is...

Android phone?  If so, FoxFi in Google Play enables the hotspot without the need for rooting.

I know your pain, I spent several days in and out of hospitals last summer during chemotherapy.  I had one stint of 72 hours when I had a 103 fever with no white blood cells.  It is a struggle when you are trying to run a business, especially in this industry which is ever changing, relies on...

Using a global DNS service is a cheaper way of reducing connection times then always taking advantage of common hosted files like Google's libraries.  When a user is connecting to your site from around the globe, it could be adding half a second just on the DNS lookup.  Then the good things...

Cable at the home/office with AT&T 4G as a backup with the hotspot feature.  Hotspot is included in my AT&T plan now, but even before it was free I just used FoxFi on Android to get around the AT&T limitations.  So I suggest anyone who needs hotspot and doesn't have it included to check it out. ...

When you say a bit less, I think you mean a lot less.  Try running 1000 KVM/Xen VMs on a host without it crashing.  From our testing, native an OpenVZ VPS actually has about 30% better IOPS than Xen and KVM after full optimization with access to the same resources.  This was tested on LVM, raw...

Since your talking about Windows 7, I'm assuming this is for your home PC?   If so, then maybe dual booting or virtualization is the best option for you now. You can use the free VMware player or Virtualbox to install Linux mint to begin fooling around with it and become accustomed to it before...

Sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_watches.  It may take some tweaking and depends on your system but you can write a script pretty easily to recurse through all the directories.  It depends on how many directories you have on your system but I have had inotify watches on all the directories on a server...

I missed this, but this is also the same on Windows 7 and Windows 8. Open up command prompt and either use: ipconfig /all or getmac

Right click on the icon in the task bar and click Network & Sharing center just like any other version of Windows or go into the Control Panel by hitting the Windows Key and typing Control Panel, or use the new shortcut Win + i.  The network and sharing center is the same as Windows 7 and is...

Looks more expensive than the 40" Ultra HDs I was looking at, plus only one HDMI input.  Not what I'm after.  I want 3 HDMI inputs, speakers, and remote control, hence a TV.  The primary function isn't a monitor for me.  I have a dual monitor setup.

Why do you say that?  I've read reviews on users running the 4K HD TVs running on their PC.  Depending on the TV, most say it looks real good. As I've already said I'm not looking for a monitor.  I'm looking for a TV, lol.  I guess the general consensus here is nobody owns a television.  I just...

Yeah but thats also a monitor not a TV.  No remote control, only two inputs, also smaller than my current TV (32in).   I also was looking for a brand that would be in stores around here.  It looks like the Ultra HD (4K) are the only ones that support over 1080.  Shame there is nothing between...
