    There are no current SBL listings for velocity-servers.net

    Not all of them are back. In fact, two of the three biggest (/15) SBLs are still gone. But it is starting to look much more normal (depressing as "normal" may be).

    There are no current SBL listings for velocity-servers.net

    I've been updating whosspamming.us every couple of days for the last little while, but with this change I'm going to stop updating for now. I believe this to be some sort of mistake or mix-up, so I'll leave the site as is as sort of an "archive" of what/how many IPs SpamHaus had flagged. From...

    cpanel w/ssl hosting needed

    This is the right choice since, despite the amazing prices, dedicated IPs come standard.

    Feathur's (Open Source Virtualization Control Panel) New Design & Improvements

    Bingo. That is exactly how it should be handled.

    Feathur's (Open Source Virtualization Control Panel) New Design & Improvements

    This. 100% this. For a change, SolusVM (the latest version) has set the bar such that proper subnet allocation is an expectation with any new(er) panel. Do it right to start - you'll save yourself a lot of headaches. New design is nice too, though :)

    Kansas City, Missouri Based Datashack gets into Gigabit Municipal ISP Business with FREE Services

    Ahh, makes sense. North Kansas City was jealous, so it came up with a plan to make the rest of the Kansas City gonna be jealous. Google's Fiber's "free" level of service is a one-time $300 fee like this setup, but you get slower speeds. Now, for that same $300, you get the gigabit in NKC...

    Kansas City, Missouri Based Datashack gets into Gigabit Municipal ISP Business with FREE Services

    I wonder why they decided to compete with Google Fiber? Kansas City was GF's first location, and now there's another gigabit game in town? Cheaper, that's for sure. Wonder if Google will "adjust" their prices with this?

    First setup of a newbie, what to improve now?

    Unless you have hundreds (or thousands) of visitors per day, you should be more than fine on the performance piece. For security, you're doing well, you might want to change the port that SSH listens on, and disable password authentication. The SSH configuration file is located at...

    Project Plugs. What are you working on?

    I've referenced it several times, but I'm working on a combined domain/server management system. The domain system will handle DNS, either through BIND right on the server its running on or through popular DNS APIs. The server part will plug in to the SolusVM and DigitalOcean APIs to allow for...

    DigitalOcean keeping busy

    Another month, another location. A third location in Amsterdam, again with IPv6. I'm starting to doubt they'll update any of their old locations - just launch new ones on their new 1.5 codebase.

    BIOS And pyhsical security

    It's always been my understanding that once someone gets physical access to your machine, all bets are off in terms of security. Even if the person has limited technical ability, they can ruin things with a sledgehammer. If they're more technically inclined, as others have mentioned, BIOS stuff...

    How can we make the Daily Server Deals website a better experience for you?

    Oh, also, if there is a coupon, its expiration date should be listed.

    How can we make the Daily Server Deals website a better experience for you?

    Make the number of plans listed a link. Like on the current offer, "6 Plans listed (6 available)" should be a link which, like the comments link, goes directly to that part of the page. Also, I don't like the dark theme, I'd prefer something lighter. For the search feature, I can filter...

    (Newb question!) How to divide a dedicated server into VPSes?

    You may well have already considered it, but if having the ability to quickly spin up servers for testing is important, you should look in to a service like DigitalOcean. They would be ideal for creating servers on the fly with adjustable resources, and they have reasonable pricing which is...

    CloudAtCost Oversold, Underpriced, What to do? Launch new "Feature"

    While I think some people would like this feature if it were just something they started offering, the way it almost seems to be forced should make those people suspicious. You have to wonder how long this "feature" will be "optional". No question that it's a move to free up resources. At least...

    Extremely Simple My Current IP Site

    How about a version like https://www.enjen.net/myip/raw/ that just outputs the IP in text format, nothing else. Preferably with Content-type: text/plain. Something like, oh I don't know, i-p.im.

    Question about IPv6 on a VPS that also has IPv4

    I have a setup like this working with OpenVPN on a KVM VPS. The instructions for setting it up are here, put together by @Nyr. I should mention: having a VPS "with IPv6" is not enough - you have to have a /64 of IPv6 or more for this to work properly. If you don't know what a /64 is, you can...
