The problem with your theory is that switching from LET to VPSB is easy: you just go to a new site. Switching to a new panel is a much more complex proposition.  Beyond that, the people delivering these panels (again I use Capisso VMPanel as an example here) are likely incapable of providing a...

No change will come because ultimately, the children running SolusVM (and let me assure you, 90% of SolusVM customers are children) will continue to run it, because the software enables them. The serious players in this industry either gave up on Solus a long time ago (BuyVM, for example) or...

Unfortunately not.  Capisso VMPanel, for example, is making the same exact security mistakes.  And any software that is good, like Stallion or Cloudware is not likely to be handed out like candy.

The underlying technologies are okay.  The problem is that SolusVM, WHMCS etc are crapware written by incompetent people who have no business writing software, but get away with it because hosting is now the new kind of lemonade stand.  Don't believe me?  Look at that shovenose kid -- he...

I have to say that is actually a pretty brilliant exploit, owning the fact that it's a multi-part POST to Solus is amazing. I am seriously impressed.

Lets do the exact same thing SolusVM does and run arbitrary commands on the slaves to manage them... because, this totally couldn't go wrong, could it? Oh, wait... These hypervisors provide formal API bindings.  Why aren't you using them?

I don't really know anything about the kid... but yeah.  Generally I expect people to make sense.

This really seems off the mark.  Why would you cancel all of your services because you hate an upstream?  Does the fact that they use Incero's bandwidth really ruin your CatalystHost experience?  I just don't get it.

The list of sites being monitored has been updated. Synopsis of changes: BetterVPS removed from monitoring for now RamNode official test IPs added COLO@ test IPs changed to official for all locations but Clifton, which does not have an official test IP yet I noticed that our probe for BuyVM...

I sent you a PM asking for better test IPs.  The main concern here is that the ones published on Colo@'s WHT offers are either routers or whatever.

Overselling Xen and KVM is possible too -- KVM with UltraKSM patch and Xen with a work in progress KSM patch.  But, I think it is not very likely that people will apply the KSM patch to Xen.  There is also feature in Xen 4 called xenpaging, which allows domain-0 to provide swap files to Xen. ...

Yes, this talk of certifications seems odd to me, too.  I have never heard of an auditor certifying code to be bug-free.  That just seems like a bad business move on the part of the auditor, too. Do we know who the auditor is?

Are you freaking kidding me?  Why wouldn't they use a PRNG for that...?

Cloudware is already in production for a long time now.  Same with Francisco's Stallion v1.

Looks like OnApp, so probably either KVM or Xen.

D10Host is offering services out of there, but their SSL certificate is expired. :(

Why is the lowness of the third and fourth octets important to you?  I can't think of any technical advantage for it.

Is this hosted at Dacentec? Is IRC allowed?

Alpheus is a strong regional provider -- a solid choice for sure.
