    IPv4 Shortage, Blame Idiots like ColoCrossing.

    Next time you bitch and moan about IP limits from datacenters or complain about the cost increase for IPs, just think of my friends in Buffalo. Sometime in the past year I started paying attention to HE's BGP site.  On there is IPs Originated (v4). Back then CC was at oh a bit over 100,000 IPs...

    GreenValueHost tells their non high paying clients to GTFO

    So I have received no prior notice, no offer for a refund for paid services, no chance to tell them I don't want my personal information given to another company... I don't feel much like a "Valued Customer" Also love the fact that I now have to update multiple customers nameservers because of...

    DDoS is a funny joke to ColoCrossing

    I know we've been finger pointing at ColoCrossing for being involved in DDoS attacks.  Nature of those obviously prevents easy proof. Stumbled into a raw unprotected directory structure over at ColoCrossing.  Within their own corporate materials this doozie:  ...

    Dealing with the Buffalo DDoS Mafia

    Earlier today a valued member of vpsBoard made available an image upload site for use on vpsBoard. I was the first tester of the service and uploaded (4) photos of Colocrossing's routers and rack.  Those photos were purged from imgur.com the other day likely from complaints from CC.  The...

    Colocrossing's Million Dollar Routers are Switches... Top of Rack Server Porn. Old Cisco.

    Someone dropped by 1090 over at Coresite in San Jose. While there, they stumbled into Colocrossing's rack and equipment. What to note before the server photo porn?  No cable management.  Random cabling and uncabling.  Puny and ancient top of rack switches. Is that a Catalyst 3500?  This is...

    Justhost a US hosting company shuts down Iranian Opposition Website

    Proving yet again that hosting Iranian websites and selling related services isn't legal in the US, Justhost.com shut down an Iranian opposition leaders website. A letter shown to Reuters lists sanctions imposed by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), under the U.S. Treasury Department...

    Colocrossing's Core "Router" is a Switch

    Some fun info about Colocrossing for today. The reason Colocrossing can't offer IPv6 and has delayed setting up BGP sessions (See Crissic's LA departure thread) is because they don't actually have a large  core router. Instead, they use switches similar to the photo below as their "edge...

    UGVPS = Thomas Dale = Crystal Dale = ChicagoVPS = Dig the Mine

    ( Hey LowEndTalk @jake, steal this post and repost  :) ) TL;DR 2.0 Thomas LEOnard Dale owns UGVPS and works for ChicagoVPS.   His IPs match recent IRC logins and past tense logins as an administrator of Chicago VPS, account  tleonard.  He goes by the username CVPS_Tleo on LowEndTalk, so say...

    Lowendbox is a corrupt marketplace

    This is another piece of original research you are only going to see on vpsBoard. If you've been in this market sector for more than a few days, you probably are familiar with the Lowendtalk website.  If you are a provider you probably also are aware of the prolonged delays in seeing your...

    Whats going on with UGVPS?

    Today's gossip rag headline: "Is UGVPS another Colocrossing / ChicagoVPS brand or did Crystal die?" UGVPS, that darling of a company with crazy low priced offers and a "female" at the helm has suddenly gone AWOL, missing in action. Buyers over at LowEndBox are reporting all sorts of non...

    Wagers: What other VPS companies does Colocrossing own / ghost operate

    Alright gamblers and minor bettors, get your wagers in. What other VPS companies does Colocrossing own / ghost operate? We already know they seem to own/control Hudson Valley Host.  And have something to do with that Chicago outfit (nee BuffaoVPS). Which other VPS companies cross the radar of...
