(Quote) I feel that @georgedatacenter should have quadrupled the price of the first offer ($3 --> $12) and also quadrupled the amount of stock (1 --> 4 or 2 --> 8 or 3 --> 12 or ...?). :)

Nextcloud is in a different comparison class than FileGator, so there wouldn't be much point in directly comparing the two. Clearly, if all that you want/need is a web-based file manager, then Nextcloud would be overkill, but the question (whic…

Although FileGator looks shiny and nice, I wonder what its main use case is. After all, we have ftp. Also, since version 7 is "completely rewritten from scratch" and dates from only last year, I'd be a bit cautious before installing …

(Quote) You may need to wait a while still. I suspect that that was a once-in-a-lifetime offer.
-
(Quote) Fair enough (by the time that I saw that offer, it was gone!). We'll see what @georgedatacenter says.
-
(Quote) For $25/year, I can't really imagine that it would be a dedicated thread. I think that he simply forgot to write "fair share" next to it.

(Quote) Indeed, and they say that 5 domains is a soft limit: (Quote) (From https://www.migadu.com/pricing/#what-is-the-soft-limit-on-the-micro-plan ) (Quote) Yeah, 20 out/day does seem pretty limiting for anyone who actually uses their email accou…

(Quote) Thanks for your initiative. I would suggest Debian and Devuan: * Debian: https://www.debian.org/mirror/ftpmirror.en.html * Devuan: https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan_mirror_walkthrough.txt

A good piece of advice is to get domains from registrars and not from hosts. If the domains were bought under his name, he should stand a decent chance of getting them back, but if they were bought under the host's name, it may be difficult. I…

(Quote) If I may ask, what score does your mail server obtain at https://www.mail-tester.com/ ?
-
(Quote) But the thing is that a properly set up mail server should have a PTR record. Spammers often use mail servers that aren't set up properly. Naturally, we can't say whether this is Barracuda's exact issue or not, but at the sam…
-
(Quote) A PTR record is a sine qua non if you want to send mail. (And you shouldn't really expect Barracuda to tell you this.)
-
Speaking from a distance, my understanding is that LXC uses (can use) a standard kernel, whereas OpenVZ requires a modified kernel (which in practice is a modified RHEL/CentOS kernel). Other things being equal, this is a big advantage of LXC over Op…

If you're trying to save money, another possibility is Yandex, which apparently allows up to 1000 email accounts on one's domain. Here's a relevant YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKXMfcEGCuc (I use Yandex but I use t…

(Quote) You're probably right, but then he should have been pleased to have gotten the 20% discount just in time. :) (His regret would seem more justified to me if he had ordered KVM250 just before the present offer.)
-
(Quote) Technically, the -20% discount applied to the plans KVM500+, so if he ordered KVM250, he wouldn't have gotten a -20% discount. :) (At least this is how your previous offer was presented.) Edit: But, yeah, in general, there's alwa…

(Quote) I suspect that low-end hosting forums aren't the best place to look for such interest. In my experience on low-end hosting forums, the great majority of people want to run Linux and/or Windows, with a small minority opting for a BSD va…

(Quote) You guys gotta learn how to let go =)
-
(Quote) I can confirm that there was something unusual yesterday late afternoon (EU time) with the US storage server: my Hetrix monitor kept reporting that my storage VPS was unreachable (up, then down, over an extended period of time); in addition,…
-
@RapToN Two quick questions: * Do you allow (publicly available) custom ISOs? * What control panel do you use?
-
(Quote) And to imagine that I thought that you were an OVH fanboy ;)
-
(Quote) He does have a LET account but he doesn't qualify there either (for a KVM from you)
-
(Quote) Learning how to read is a useful skill
-
(Quote) Yeah, I understand. I just wanted to point out that the 1024 plan is the best deal :)
-
(Quote) If there's a critique to be made of the pricing of the three offers above, it's that the pricing isn't linear: the second offer (for €2.50/m) is non-linearly the most attractively priced :)
-
(Quote) I think that your offers above are attractive and tempting to anyone who prefers monthly payments and intends to use their VPS for something other than idling. Furthermore, that you do daily backups is a plus that gives peace of mind.

(Quote) As I understand it, since Perl 6 was to break backward compatibility with Perl 5, there was no practical choice but to make it (effectively) a different product. Perl 7 will preserve backward compatibility with Perl 5, at least to a very lar…

(Quote) Okay, fair enough. (I was assuming that VMware was comparable to KVM as far as this survey was concerned.)
