Ponny is always free, Pony is a whole different animal.

Blame Cisco. I've been using way too much UCSM lately.  :wacko:

That would be a win-win as long as whoever you trust with it doesn't try selling it themselves or throwing it anonymously on Pastebin or something, but you're a good judge of character so that shouldn't be a problem. Maybe consider throwing a unique identifier in the code so you can track it...

I did think of that when I typed up this thread but we already had the name picked.

How could I get ripped off? We are making payments as portions are completed so if he disappears, he won't get paid and we'll hire somebody else. :) I think you quoted the wrong person. ;)

That'll be up to the end-users/developer. I'll be using VPSM as a WHMCS plugin so I've been working on a basic control panel for inside WHMCS. It'll use my WHMCS template which is Bootstrap so it should be pretty enough to look at. :)

I decided to get VPSM going because of SolusVM and the other panels begin made. The VPS industry has no quality FOSS option and nobody wants to spend time or money building one so we (Secure Dragon and DimeCadmium) are. It won't be flashy or feature packed, but it will be 100% FOSS and...

Please keep in mind that even though this software is open source (MIT license), it is still a paid project that will receive a paid external audit upon completion. I know some people associate FOSS with lesser quality or hobby work so I wanted to dispel that association with VPSM. ;)

I was hoping the SSH keys would be locked down by IP (from="" in authorized_keys) so even with the SSH key you can't access the nodes or run commands. Just my 2 cents and something that can be done manually later.

I'm getting an error on the SafeOrNot.net contact form. :( EDIT: 2nd time's a charm. :)

Wow, I woke up this morning to some really nice PMs on WHT from some larger VPS providers that are interested in this project. I'm very happy with the direction this is taking and hopefully by tomorrow I can provide some updates on the site in regards to a schedule and budget. :)

We did talk about using libvirt for Xen/KVM and using SSH for OpenVZ.

John considered coding his own daemon but it looks like he's going strictly SSH with auth-keys last I spoke with him since it gives him some flexibility and have a proven security track record. But nothing is set in stone right now so it can change anytime between now and the final release. :)

The project is only a few hours old and we still don't have the contract signed so this is all preliminary.

I know, I know. Everybody and their sister is putting out a SolusVM alternative so what make VPSM (VPS Manager) different? It's 100% FOSS (Free Open Source Software). No one-time fees. No monthly bills. No encoded files. I've been working with a developer (John AKA DimeCadmium) and we're still...

Myself and 6 other providers are working on financing a SolusVM replacement and there are 5 other companies I am in talks with. I hope to have a quote from the developer shortly.

Please keep the drama/BS out of this thread so it can attempt to stay on-topic. Thanks. :)

It looks like a lot of the recent exploits require access to your SolusVM Master either as a client or as a guest. So here's a quick and easy way to prevent access: iptables -A INPUT -j ACCEPT -p tcp -s <WHMCS_IP> --destination-port 5353 -i venet0 iptables -A INPUT -j ACCEPT -p tcp -s...

It works exactly the same. You setup a BGP session with your data center (or even static routes will work for data center peering) and you're done.

Sorry, I was on my phone so I tried to keep it brief. We don't buy our own bandwidth.
