I know @Francisco does this at BuyVM because if there's one IP, a DDoS on it will take down all the accounts sharing that IP. That's not so much the question here, though - we're talking about additional dedicated IPs, especially on VPSes.

Ahh yes, my bad on the numbers. Percentages confuse me sometimes. Good answers, though, thanks for the insight.

@sv01 I never anywhere so much as implied that it should be used in particular on... Why yes, ColoCrossing does have a lot of blocked IPs!

Maybe you need to send out a "welcome" e-mail that outlines how to get started. Some expectations can't really be dislodged.

Except it was only posted on one offer. You've posted two offers since, but none of them included that line. But hey, I don't expect any potential customers are complaining. Hopefully you aren't either, now that I've drawn attention to it :P

A lot of us here buy VPSes in the low-end "market". In this market, there aren't as many hosts offering an SLA as there are on the high end. But how much does an SLA mean to you guys? Do you look for one in the TOS? Do you require one? How much uptime do you look for or expect in a $1-15/month...

Just under a week to go! Two bucks more and you get 10% off if you're transferring! Current bid is $28.

New registrations only, I assume? Or transfers/renewals too?

Part of my enthusiasm may or may not be related to the offer you posted on June 30, which had this gem in fine print at the bottom: Of course, August 31st hasn't passed yet, and I'm the only one that posted. Curious if you'd still honor that for two more customers. Anyway, I also really like...

Could always use vi or nano through the terminal! Otherwise, I don't know of anything. You could write your own in PHP or the like, but that gets complicated quickly. Syntax highlighting, AJAX saves, all that is best provided by something else.

Not sure why they would have said this. If they were more accurate, they would have said "you are the attack". As the article @Mun posted points out, people are often unaware that their server (and bandwidth) are being hijacked to use in an attack. Best bet is to uninstall BIND if you're not...

----------------- Thanks for outlining all that stuff @drmike - this is a group with some history to say the least. With this scam all but shut down, I wonder what it'll be next. How's the vaca going, BTW? :P

Finally starting to get more than one or two reviews in - maybe it's that big banner in everyone's face :P Excellent reviews so far @gxbfxvar. Looks like I'm getting some competition, maybe I should write up three or four more :)

@DomainBop Tell that fine fellow that he's got an excellent policy there - his concern for "customer satisfaction" shows true professionalism!

These guys are pretty legit! The Ashburn location is nice - close to NYC and Atlanta, as well as Equinix.

<?php /** * SpamHaus SBL Chcker * Takes domain and returns number of assigned SPLs and total blocked IPs. * Written by D. Strout (http://www.dstrout.net) */ $domain = $_REQUEST["domain"]; //Input through web //$domain = $argv[1]; //Input through command line if (!domainValid($domain) ||...

This isn't too surprising. They peer with each other, they both have way more IPs than they should, they both offer dirt-cheap servers. They're besties, really - they probably have a monthly circlejerk in Buffalo while bemoaning how mean Spamhaus is while sitting on a pile of money thrown their...

Iniz is a very solid provider. Patrick runs a top-notch business. I especially like the NYC location - pretty good network there through Inforelay.

Xen is definitely the "underdog" in the low end segment, KVM being more prominent, but at the enterprise level Xen shows up a lot more.

Ideally I'm looking for 512MB RAM. Like @MannDude said, it's big enough that I don't have to worry about optimization. Disk and bandwidth sizes don't matter that much to me since I never use much of either. As a minimum, though, in terms of disk I might say 10GB SSD, 20GB HDD. Gigabit port is...
