On a UK node with Inception Hosting (@AnthonySmith) and a Finland node with Gullo's Hosting (@cam), VPSes running Debian 10: uname -r shows version 4.19.0. Maybe some OpenVZ host setting or something is different. :grey_question: :)
-
Congrats @Francisco :) Thanks @FAT32 for compiling the list! As for Inception Hosting: ... So maybe adjust a little bit. :) (More would have voted for Anthony, but didn't.) :)

Interesting ... I know it's a shared kernel, but in Debian 10 uname reports 4.19, so it fakes it somehow ... :)
-
I'm quite willing, but unable to comply, as: * I don't have any CentOS running anymore, after testing was done, I went back to Debian * I never really figured out a neat way to strip down CentOS/RHEL/Fedora to minimal. (On Debian I'd use deborphan, apt autoremove and apt purge.) :)
-
I wish I could, but I just googled (or actually DuckDuckGo'ed) "centos 7 to 8 upgrade" or something like that, and found at least two articles outlining a pretty similar procedure. (Something like yum update, adding EPEL, installing DNF, some dnf check command, adding/changing to centos 8 repo, dnf update, reboot.)
-
I tried upgrading from CentOS 7 to 8 on a couple of NAT VPSes. That worked without issues. (Not entirely straightforward procedure as you're switching from yum to dnf.)

When I add Norwegian card(s) to my (personal) PayPal, it usually suggests/forces PayPal's conversion to NOK ... Or at least it did, I haven't added any cards for years. (Then I had to enter wallet settings per card or something like that to change default conversion option. Probably quite hidden away in old-style settings…
-
Ref. PayPal, you can set in prefs for each card if you want to use PayPal's conversion or not. (Usually better to not use their conversion rates.) IIRC
-
In OpenVZ 7 there was a bug with libc.so.1 or something causing Debian 10 not to boot if you tried to upgrade. Not sure if that applies to v6. As for uname -a, it reports 4.19 in my OVZ7 VPS'es, so I guess it fakes/emulates something.
-
Somehow good to see I'm not the only one having trouble reading the original post ... :p So, Ant excluded himself, and the second should be one not on the register here. B)
-
So, you won't be joining my OpenVZ Fan Boys Discord?!? :p :lol: ... (Ok, I'll go to bed now.) :#
-
Hm, @WSS ... Care to define what characterizes a pig kernel? :lol: Maybe pig = messy kernel? :) I usually use the advanced debian installer option, since I have some options to build more targeted boot image and such ... :) I guess I should use the same with KVM VPS installs...
-
Hm, MXRoute uses Rocket.chat, works well, but the charm there is that it uses OAuth or something from WHMCS, IIRC, so if if the panel is down, that doesn't help too much for those who are not already authenticated with the chat server ... I watch both RSS and Twitter feeds, but usually there's quite a few people who misses…

How good/bad are Firefox's builtin privacy protection stuff? :)

And here I try not to run geekbench more than once or twice a week ... :lol: For my usage, the full geekbench cpu test is overkill, but nench.sh's test feels a bit too simplified. :) Should have been Linux 3.11 for Workgroups... ;) I just started out from a provided image (on some maybe upgraded from Debian 9, then used…
-
... as in bench.monster/speedtest.sh ? :)
-
Seems to me that there is a difference, I also wondered why. I assumed there must be more shared that just kernel (something in /var, /sys, /lib, maybe, I dunno). There was a discussion on this in some other thread here, IIRC. I guess I should do a dpkg --get-selections on a minimal OVZ VPS, and do --set-selections on a…

... That moment when BanditHost tells us to do "nothing illegal" ... ;)
-
Oh, cool. :+1: :smiley: I do need to learn more about how to optimize, though (especially MariaDB and nginx, if that's in the mix). (I see some sites recommends redis with WP, but I have no idea when/if that would be beneficial.) I guess I should set a limit in the config file? :)
-
When adding a WP site on the same VPS, you'll need to add more memory? (I'm just wondering if I should try running a WP site on a 256 MB NAT, sounds to me like a bit too much. Not talking production site, though.) ;)
-
It uses Cloudflare as CDN, IIRC? (Maybe wrong thread, but is that mainly for distributing/lowering load/traffic on the VPS, or mainly for security/DDoS protection etc.?)
-
Maybe it's commented previously, but how much mem does MariaDB use for this forum? (For a real small dynamic site, on 256MB, should I use sqlite or something instead?)
-
I just learned a new word. =) Nice summary ;)
-
Inception Hosting is on the register ... =)
-
Well, with NexusBytes, we (or at least I) did go crazy with the pre-BF deals … ;) No worries, mate! :) I hope you get some new sweet signups, and a Merry Christmas! :grin:
-
I'm not buying more this year, my money are spent ... ;)
-
NanoKVM and MrVM has HAproxy, IIRC. But if you need some other service than http/https on those ports, it won't nescessarily work. The other option could be to use cloudflare or something to resolve ipv4 and proxy that to ipv6. (I haven't tested this myself. All my services on NAT VPSes can use my allocated custom ports.)
-
Hmm, TL;DR version: Is the doubling/gift draw only for new orders? B) Or should I do something to enter a draw? :#
-
* NexusBytes @seriesn -- Great service and performance * LetBox -- Great offers, backup and storage options Nice typo :p (I could also mention MyW / @MikePT, Gullo's hosting/ @cam and Inception / @AnthonySmith, but I have no more votes.) ;)

I did install wordops on a VPS for testing. How easy is it to keep everything patched/updated using cron/systemd timer? (According to the poll, I could just get some coffee, instead of installing EasyEngine.) ;) And on a side note: When/in what scenario(s) is it preferred to use redis with Wordpress?
