(Quote) Nobody who reads this ad is going to expect it's only 10 Gbps inbound so it's incredibly misleading to advertise a "Free 10 Gbps Port" but not mention that it's actually 10 in 1 out by default. The signup page's prominent mention o…

I've started using trixie and no issues here other than the default behavior of IPv6 is to generate an EUI-64 address as well as some other type of random address. (Privacy address?) Wish Microsoft was a little more proactive in providing an up to …

I'm a little late but will add my 2c anyway given I have a small time 2U colocation as well. (Quote) Any half decent provider will give you a secure option to access your IPMI. With my colo I can access the iDRAC interface through an IPsec VPN. You…

Still only doing a /128 for IPv6? Sheesh.

A little disappointing. It was nice having these notifications as a backup, especially for internally facing services or slightly non-standard setups like the cert renewal for my ZNC bouncer. I'm using a self hosted version of healthchecks.io to try…

This is how I typically do networking on dedicated servers with Proxmox: * Create a new Linux Bridge in addition to the one Proxmox created for you. Do not assign an IP address or any Bridge Ports. Tick VLAN Aware if you wish to run VLAN traffic ov…

Offering a 99-year VPS is an absurd notion and if these guys sincerely think they can fulfill the obligation, they're deluded. Even ignoring specs and the questionable utility of a VPS in 99 years, there's also an intense amount of regulatory uncert…

(Quote) A common response from ignorant administrators. Those of us on the bleeding edge are building up mental strength by using alpha 696XLAT daemons while lesser providers think they're cutting edge for offering an IPv6 /128.

(Quote) I'm moving from Australia. Reasons mainly revolve around dissatisfaction with the quality of life for young adults here. It really feels like in the last 10 years the bottom rungs have been stripped away and there's no hope of owning a house…

My goal for 2024 was to completely get rid of VMware and switch to Proxmox for my home lab. Dealing with the machines at home was easy, and for rented servers I was able to rent replacement hosts, install Proxmox, migrate VMs and cancel the old VMwa…

This is a very cool service and I greatly appreciate OP spending the time and effort to build and maintain it. Previously I was using Quad9 given they support DNSCrypt and are one of the few who can give me low latency, but for something as critical…

Can vouch that Regery is good. Used them for my .su domain which was basically impossible to renew with anyone else due to the war.

(Quote) Yeah I found a solution but it was pretty convoluted. I use NetBox as my DCIM so I decided to make that the DNS source of truth and use octoDNS to deploy the records so I never have to touch their panel and deal with the slowness. Here's a s…

(Quote) AWS Route53 would probably be the only big one. They do have a local CDN and DNS presence but it doesn't help if their backend is far far away and Europe certainly is. To put it into perspective, it takes 14 seconds for the reports dashboard…
-
(Quote) Been trying these guys as my current setup is less than satisfactory and they're generally good but my goodness is the panel abysmally slow. Maybe it's nice and snappy if you live on top of their server, but it's as slow as a wet week from A…

(Quote) Yeah same. An updated version on pypi seems to address the issue, I'm on 2020.11.01.1.

Geez this is moronic. Considering in the notice they explicitly mention songs I guess yt-dl had used them as references in their tests? It probably got flagged by some scraper then fwded to the RIAA lawyers. They have no idea what they're looking …

If you use netboot.xyz their menu for Debian has an option to specify a preseed file. Basically can do a semi-unattended install with no ISO mounted this way. For folks who like to live on the edge a bit and open up root straight away: d-i preseed/…

I guess it depends on how severe the problem was. If it was causing your site to throw 500 errors continually and it's a managed service, I'd be disappointed they weren't proactive. But if it's like "oh this one little feature buried under a s…

I have an Ubuntu 12.04 VM I only just upgraded to 14.04 the other day.

I don't visit here often enough so I didn't see it. But no biggie anyway as the backups worked.

Shoutout to Borgbase! Backup restored now.

If you want to grab a dedi at some point, RansomIT has a config that pretty much matches your requirements perfectly. https://www.ransomit.com.au/dedicated_servers/

Did some looking into these guys. One big red flag out of the gate is their business address is in West Perth and they say their instances are located at a "West Perth DC". I'm not aware of any big datacentre operation there and most peopl…

(Quote) Yeah Quantum Core is really good. I did a comparison of a bunch of similarish boxes I have with various hosts on OzBargain and their CPU performance on the ZNC compile was close to my home ESXi with dual E5-2643 v3s. Here's the post for tho…

I reckon you should add Ransom IT to the whitelist. The VMs aren't super cheap but the dedicated servers are great value. Oliver has been around a while and his service is good.
