(Quote) I'm using restic, and I must say I really like it. It's lightweight, easy to use, efficient and very scriptable.
-
(Quote) Hell yeah, I would switch my linux NAT vps's for jails in a second!
-
My guess is that Netflix doesn't really care if you use VPN or not, so they probable does not have all the latest bells and whistles when it comes to detecting it. The restriction on content in different parts of the world comes from the big movieco…

I actually really like Discord. It's fast, easy and efficient. For pure bullshit and chitchat it's perfect. As a business, privacy becomes a concern. But then there is always Mattermost, which you can run selfhosted.

I had similar issues a while ago so I tested a lot of solutions, but landed on Authy. The only thing that bugs me a little is that it is not open source, but I feel that the company behind it is solid enough to be trusted as much as anything else (w…

(Quote) Oh no, you are by far not the only idiot, there are plenty of you out there. ;) I'm glad you took my comment the right way, now that I read it again I realize that it might have sounded a far bit harsher then intended. I apologize even if …

(Quote) Well, if you chose to agree upon a contract you haven't even read, that is your choice, but don't assume that everyone is equally stupid.
-
(Quote) Well, if the cancellation policy is stated in the contract and you have agreed to that contract, most people in Germany (or Europe as a whole I would imagine) would consider it your own fault for agreeing to it. We simply hate people that t…

I would say pretty much every point you made can be said about Swedish providers as well, take it from a native Swede that have lived and worked in Germany. We are very similar when it comes to consumer protection, the customers have a lot of protec…

(Quote) I second that. In most cases I just need space, not performance. I have no need for ssd/nvme and lots of ram and cpu.
-
Since we are on the topic, can someone explain the purpose of the "nameservers" boxes? I see them almost every time I sign up for a vps, but I have never been able to figure out what they do. It doesn't seem to matter what you put there, t…

I have a vps in Norway, and it's been having a lot of packetloss and timeouts lately. As I'm typing this it is unreachable from seven other locations, but reachable from two.
-
I've used http://www.gestioip.net/ a few times. It's not perfect, but in many cases sufficient.

(Quote) I don't blame you, at first glance Acronis can look like a bit of a mess, but its really just one product with different packaging/licensing. Once you get to know their AnyData Engine then you can use all of their products, the rest is just …

(Quote) Changing ssh port doesn't really make it secure, it just makes it harder to find. If you truly believed security by obscurity worked, you would change your ssh port and then have no passwords. Hopefully, you don't do that. Real security i…
-
(Quote) Probably the service provider licensing, they have lots of licensing options and integrates well with cpanel, whmcs and most others.
-
I use 5 of the mrvm ipv6-only with 256M as monitoring satellites and route reflectors. Works like a charm, they do their job so well I usually forget about them even existing.
-
(Quote) Certified ACE and ABE here, glad to hear Acronis works for you. :)
-
Security by obscurity doesn't really work, imho. But yeah, I guess an obscure enough subdomain would be equally difficult to guess as a password. You could even mitigate bruteforce attacks by blacklisting clients with to many 404 etc. But still, I w…
-
It all depends on the requirements. For personal stuff and VPS's it's a mix of tar, rsync and restic. Lately, I've moved more and more towards restic since I've found it to be easy, reliable and powerful. It's easy to script and automate and also f…

(Quote) True. I forgot idling, and "just collecting vps's". :smile:
-
If I had privacy concerns, I would not use Cloudflare either. Just imagine the amount of data they are able to collect if they want to.
-
(Quote) Nagios is extremely flexible, if you know how to use it. It is not a turn-key solution, and its not really good for metrics. Nagios is more of a "alert, this happened right now" solution. But properly configured and teamed with a t…

(Quote) Understandable. So whats the procedure, I just order a server and then open a ticket for os-reinstall?
-
(Quote) OK, sounds good. I was never given a choice of os when ordering the server, so I never finished the order. I'll try it again. Thanks :smile:
-
What os and version are the storage VPS's? I cant find any mention of it on the website.
-
(Quote) Oh, you will get there, eventually, when you have done enough mistakes to learn from them and seen enough young people that think the world revolve around them come and go.
-
(Quote) Can you really read this post and still claim that your attitude is not a problem? You simply refuse to take any of the advises we try to give you and instead go on a rant about why you are right and everyone else is wrong. Continuing to per…
-
I think the chance of someone taking you in after this thread is pretty slim. People are trying to help you, and you tell them to "stay away" because you do not like their answers. That kind of attitude is not what you want in a support wo…

(Quote) A simple redirect that removes the www. part usually takes care of all problems. The forum is at talk.lowendspirit.com so that should not be affected at all.
