What services are running?

  • zpanel
  • including (apache,php,mysql,bind,postfix,dovecot,fail2ban,mongodb)

Support:

One ticket about adding the Ubuntu LTS ISO image to install zpanel.

Overall experience:

I am happy with this west cost box. The network of WebNX is nice and the connection to asia is good.

Ping to europe (level3 through LON/PAR) is 151ms, ping to Atlanta is 48ms, ping to Chicago is 71ms and ping to Buffalo is 64ms.

Ping to Japan is 111ms, ping to Hong Kong is 159ms and ping to South Korea is 146ms.

Thanks again. I appreciate the review. This node is pretty much decked out in terms h/w raid 10, 12 core amd, 64 gigs of ram. Watch out for the "real low end boxes" in Kanas city coming in the next couple of weeks.

@Tactical, so are you running servers in Florida and California now?

Which facility are you about to offer in Kansas City?

@drmike Yes I am and probably going to be out of wholesale internet. It just "Real Low End Boxes" nothing over 128 megs of ram.  Their network is not shabby for the price you pay.

Looks like webnx is expensive in terms of dedi or colo. Hope tactical here gets some profit out of it and not get deadpooled soon. Good luck
