    Dual Xeon L5420 (8 Cores at 2.5 GHz) - 24GB RAM - 4x 1TB HDD Dell Server

    Howdy folks! So I finished the RTO period with Dacentec and have been paying for the colocation fees for a while now. Unfortunately I'm currently done with the use of this server (it's done all it need to do). I'm selling the hardware! Here's the specs: Dell Server (Don't have the serial...

    OpenVZ vs KVM vs Xen (PV and HVM) vs VMWare

    Alright, so we all get asked this question.  Whether it be via a support ticket or on a forum (woah!).  But unlike the other questions, this question will be different. What's the benefits of each virtualization?  What's the negatives?  What specifically makes this virtualization shine?  What...

    Hostnames

    Ever sit at the order form and just don't have an idea for the hostname? Are you a person who enters random numbers and letters into the hostname and changes it later to something inappropriate on Solus? Well, I'm asking you now, the vpsBoard community, what are some funny, weird, scary...

    HEY GUYS, GUESS WHAT I DID?

    I bought a dedicated server from VolumeDrive.   You know why?  Because I'm not afraid of some repossession of servers and/or sudden dataloss/server disappearing.   I like to live life dangerously. Yeah I may be an idiot, but we'll see how long this last.   Please stand in an orderly line to...

    Budget Phone Service

    So, a few of my friends were looking for a new cell phone service and came across this company. While they only offer a single phone (Motorola Defy XT) they offer unlimited minutes, text, and data for 20/month.   Seems like most of the time they utilize VoIP (WiFi calling) but at times when...

    Digital Ocean - New York City Location

    So I'm as giddy as a school girl right now.  Digital Ocean finally has servers in 111 8th street in the heart of New York City!  This is also the Google Datacenter downtown (Google now owns the building) and is known to have a great network.  I've been looking for a service here for a few years...

    Best Redundancy

    So you have your server all setup.   MySQL is running, your apache/nginx configuration is up.  Your website is now live.  Basically, you've done the bare bones.  How do you create redundancy?  What rules do you use?  Are you content with just one backup system?  Do you do the "three servers"...

    Personal Pet Peeves

    So I have a pet peeve that annoys me and I'm just here to complain about it.   Using Google Image search does NOT mean that it's free.  Many images on Google still have copyrights on them and requires you to follow proper licensing requirements. Google even warns you about...

    Power Outage: Residential

    So its been three hours since a storm knocked out electricity to my local neighborhood block. There was a temporary 10 seconds of electricity burst ten minutes ago but its down again. Besides for my cell phone, I have no internet and my netbook is pretty useless without WiFi (no I don't have...

    [Poll] Signature Regulation (Unofficial Poll)

    Hello vpsBoard! This is just me taking my own initiative to start the conversation on Signatures.   While I do understand people would love to customize and configure their signatures, It has recently come to my attention several new and creative ways that they're being used might be too...

    The Good Music Thread

    So...  I'm drunk. You know what good pies do when they're drunk? They make good decisions. This definitely applies to music. I've decided that we should have a paste-youtube videos thread to make this more deliciously hilarious. First song I'll be posting is One Headlight by The Wallflowers...

    Changing Operating Systems through SSH

    So, I was talking with Jarland (one of the co-owners of Catalyst) and something interesting came up. Using Debootstrap, you can change the OS from anything else (I'm assuming Linux-based?) to Debian.  Although I personally have not used this or had any experience in this, might as well push...
