I see many US based options and not so many EU based options. Where are the OVH France based DDoS protected providers? Where are the voxility based DDoS protected Providers? And no, Voxility is not just in Romania (at least according to their website), they should also have Germany and other...

$2k for a laptop sounds a little extreme. One can buy a decent new laptop for around $500-$600 these days.

I wonder how many people are delaying the online purchases they had to do in anticipation of the Cyber Monday. This whole marketing ploy might work in reverse for most online sellers, i.e. they sell less as a whole during this month, because people delay their purchasing.

There were similar ideas discussed to make RIPE's fees more proportional to the amount of addresses given to each member. However they said that currently RIPE is registered as non-profit organization and if they make the fee proportional to the usage it would have to register as a company and...

Buy a VPS nearby, setup samba, upload ISOs ;-)

Maybe it's possible to install and use the el6 based kernel while still using the CentOS 5 userland, but i'm not sure about that. You will have to try it on a test box first.

Install CentOS 6.

So is it expected that Arvixe would get better now, or worse? Because we keep getting UDP floods from some of their IPs. Although i haven't bothered contacting them about it and just filter it, i hoped they would monitor their traffic and take measures to not allow their servers to be used as a...

Why would a domain registrar with 1 million domains be worth $70 million? This makes what, 7 years turnaround from 1 million $10/year domains? Makes zero sense to me.

Well, nobody was talking about SHA-1 vs SHA-256 a year ago. So if their SSL cart is oldish... it's normal to be SHA-1.

cronjobs are good for telling you what updates are pending. I prefer to apply the updates manually.

If a switch can't handle 100k pps it shouldn't have been born as a switch in the first place. Your provider is probably more concerned about the 800Mbps going towards your server. But as @splitice said this is not something you can do yourself in software. Find a DDoS protected service.

Noone uses wget for mirrors nowadays, usually it's rsync instead.

Interesting how many of your neighbors called 911 to say they see an UFO ;-)

Assuming the sd card appears as /dev/sdb when you plug it in your PC, you can do: dd if=/dev/sdb of=sdcard-backup.img bs=1M and to write it back to the SD card: dd if=sdcard-backup.img of=/dev/sdb bs=1M Of course you should check what device it is first, you don't want to start dd-ing some...

What's the story with Illinois? Why is it excluded?

Well, 2x-3x is a little extreme. Most datacenters would aim for 1.5x or less. 3x would be extremely inefficient.

On the other hand the WHMCS module is not encoded so you are free to use it as a base and make whatever changes and customizations.

In my experience - more effective than MaxMind.

Some of these obviously need to be merged because they are for the same company under different names.
