    EIG Stock Investigation

    And don't forget that the "report" was published entirely for the author to profit off of like they have in the past. It's sickening that they do this and people circulate this filth without bothering to read it.

    SolusVM cancelled services bug

    I've seen this enough times with SolusVM that I coded something specifically in Wyvern to alert me if this happens. In my experience, the most common reason for this issue is WHMCS/SolusVM not being able to talk to the VPS node and WHMCS/SolusVM don't retry (at least WHMCS gives a SUCCESS or...

    So, let's clear the air...

    @Kruno the risk is whether or not the hosting provider knows what they are doing. Without control over the server, you just have to pray and hope they know what they are doing. That's why I will never host important websites on a server I don't have root access to.

    I don't have any problem when providers use control panels for company sites or billing areas. I do have a problem when you install them on servers with other, less secured client websites (i.e. a shared environment).

    Some free WHMCS Hooks you might find useful.

    Figured I'd post these here since some of these are pretty helpful. invoiceAddCredit - WHMCS hook to automatically add a percentage of credits based on payment processor. (Inspired by ) chkClientDetails - A WHMCS hook that checks new client details for blocked words and displays an error if...

    I can care less how they run their business.

    Ok so is there a non-compete clause in place? Who owns and controls GreenValueHost.com? While you claim you didn't lie to anybody, this snippet is what has me believing otherwise: And then less than 24 hours later, you're quoted in this "Press...

    GreenValueHost / GVH and HostNun banned for operating shill ring

    At this point the puppet show isn't even entertaining, it's just making me sick to my stomach and it's not from all of the popcorn. I bet a lot of people who donated to Duke to help get him back on his feet are really regretting it now.

    GreenValueHost / GVH and HostNun banned for operating shill ring

    Wow, so Duke puts on a show here for us while working on helping GVH relaunch their services. It's sad that Duke has stooped this low as to work for Johnny (I would have at least expected there be a partnership involved but now it's apparent that Johnny calls the shots here, good luck XFuse...

    I was thinking of it as a fee and not a tax. Sorry.

    Lets Encrypt: Free SSL Certificates. How will other certificate authorities compete?

    I understand that but my comment still holds true. :)

    GreenValueHost / GVH and HostNun banned for operating shill ring

    @XFS_Duke Never say never. I don't know the specifics around your dealings with him but it sounds like you're referring to a Non Compete clause or agreement. If so, why would something like a legal document stop him?

    RDNS Requests

    If you're manually provisioning rDNS, you're wasting your time. You should find a way to let clients set their own rDNS and be done with it. However you do it, just make sure that the FQDN they want to use has an A record for the IP they want it set for to avoid spoofing. Don't try to combat...

    Why Don't Providers Do This One Simple Thing ... To Make More Money?

    Ok so even though he's paying the VAT, it's actually added to his account as credit and not deducted from his payment like it normally would be?

    SolusVM 2

    Writing 2.0 from scratch is akin to writing a completely new control panel, and we all know nobody can write a new control panel in less than 4 years. [/sarcasm]

    Lets Encrypt: Free SSL Certificates. How will other certificate authorities compete?

    Nothing against free SSLs, but I feel more comfortable with paying for them. If something happens with an SSL I paid for I have more traction if there were legal or financial repercussions.

    Why Don't Providers Do This One Simple Thing ... To Make More Money?

    So you charge them VAT twice? If they are adding the funds to their account and then using those funds to pay the invoice due and you are charging VAT for both invoices then that's double charging them. Client uses Add Funds and pays VAT. Client uses funds to pay invoice with VAT added to it...

    SolusVM 2

    Too little, too late. Would have been nice back in 2012 when they first announced it, but 3+ years later and they are just now adding 2FA? Quoting this for reference (Jan. 5th, 2012):

    Why Don't Providers Do This One Simple Thing ... To Make More Money?

    I have seen this also in the past but not so much this year. Clients used to pre-fund their accounts with stolen credit cards or Paypal accounts, then ask to have the funds refunded to another Paypal account after some time has passed and when Paypal no longer allows processing refunds and...

    Why Don't Providers Do This One Simple Thing ... To Make More Money?

    Be very careful about pre-funding accounts since most providers (us included) don't give refunds for voluntary payments (i.e. adding funds to accounts for later).
