Well, I was gonna go with OVH (Oz) direct but took this one instead, before they sold out. Instant setup - kewl. Don't need 4vCPU, 4GB RAM (half would do) and double the storage on SSD/HDD would suit better. This powerhouse is gonna idle a lot. ;) Q…

@AnthonySmith comments like that continue to raise my respect for you. A far cry from my very first impressions, way back. ;)

(Quote) His right what? :p

(Quote) This.

(Quote) Don't use WHMCS, so I could only speculate. ;)

Strangely, just this morning, I was thinking about the setting that allows WHM/cPanel to check how many levels down for .htaccess - I normally change from the default of two, to three. Haven't noticed any similar setting on any of the other control …

I think it is only intended to show LICENCE as an example: who the hell cares that someone can read that? Any mitigation shouldn't just be focussed on that one file, I suspect. Dunno, but perhaps more appropriate.. [code] deny access to composer …

(Quote) Thank you. That is the best response from you so far, IMO. I am also pleased that you have tried to respond via email, albeit with a few sweeping statements.

When it comes to personal data leakage: once is bad, twice is awful, recurrent is downright neglect of duty. Is this why I'm seeing more spam than ever? (rhetorical)

As a small scale value add hosting provider, with no reselling intentions my billing requirements are modest. With a previous VPS provider, I managed to persuade them to give me a license for "eHostBill", which I imagine is/was their front…

(Quote) LMFTFY: Safer not better. (Non ass shagging perspective) (Quote) This. Each packet received needs to be processed somewhere, whether 'good' or 'bad'.

IPSet/CSF is your friend.

If only file retention would work properly in Nextcloud - gets a bit tedious culling older backup files manually. Note: if you (s)FTP files to nextcloud, they won't be encrypted, AFAIK - might be an issue/consideration. It's the reason, for me using…

OK - had enough. It's potato or potatoes! Jeez. Looks like the Cest Pit is spreading into other threads - not good. :| Can you guys not save the shit for the Cest or Amitz threads?

There may be trouble ahead..

Temporarily switch to DHCP? (Quote) These should match your static assignment. What size is /var/log/messages? A "tail -f" on the file might give clues, during the problem times; I suspect it'll be filling up too quickly though.

/etc/resolv.conf? Which DNS provider are you using for the domain? Is your ssh slowness there, whether you use IP or domain name? Are you bound to the correct gateway? I presume you're using a static IP. Which firewall and do things improve dramatic…

(Quote) Similar to mine, using Vancouver to a USA VPS. It'll be interesting to try the same tomorrow, prior to any other contact with your VPS. Perhaps Ant will be feeling a bit better and can investigate from his perspective. (Quote) Note: the &q…

Load average isn't of concern at this point, unlike i/o wait & steal. Remove DNS resolving from sshd_config, if enabled. traceroute from your PC to your VPS (may need to open your firewall). Once, again: GTMetrix on your Nextcloud URL.

@radmerc DNF/Centos8: why? come off extraneous software/bleeding edge. (@Bochi 1.5% steal shouldn't be an issue, that I/O wait sure is though.) Open a ssh and begin top monitoring, with a 5s interval. Then try logging into Nextcloud Check your DNS …

From the wiki about blinkenlights.. (Quote) Probably still got one of those (a 3rd party one) stuffed in a drawer someplace. :-o

Might be tempted to take another look at netdata, installing from github. Munin can sometimes get a bit bogged down generating charts but generally I've found it reliable.
-
(Quote) Yes, though the type & quantity of data passed to the remote netdata was far too revealing and was enough for me to immediately terminate it. Fine to use external montoring (Hetrix, Uptime etc.) to check for common ports (eg. 80,ping) bu…
