I've been idling a $1/month Special Sailor VPS (512 MB, 30 GB disk, 512 GB transfer, IPv4 and IPv6) since BF 2020. Along the way it appears to have been upgraded from HDD to SSD to NVMe. Earlier this month the host node got a big upgrade; I've seen …

(Quote) Probably working through the backlog. My open ticket hasn't been touched in a week, so it look like it's not just you.
-
Typo in the FAQ: "These plans are sold as "KVM Lite" and do not have guaranteed access to custom ISO, rDNS requests, or to port 80/443/80", probably should be ports 25/443/80, right?

(Quote) I'm set to notify on ram>1024 and disk>40, but I got a couple like this: <b>New Plan!</b>\n7.92 USD - 512 RAM, 1 Core(s), 15 Disk, 2048 Data, in LOS ANGELES, CA\n(Page is closed but notifications enabled.) Not clear from …

Been a good run! I got in on this 2022 black friday deal: https://lowendspirit.com/discussion/comment/111477#Comment_111477 (Location: Under the couch, spare room, CPU: Single core, Intel 486dx, Memory: 32mb, Disk: 512mb CF Card) It's still runnin…

(Quote) How will this price lock work for those of us with existing special BF deals? Doesn't apply--old specials are lifetime and never going away? Does apply--old specials will need to do the $10 price lock to avoid losing them in the future? Does…

I've got a free NVMe2G-for-life from that 2022-10 contest that's been a great performer. Obviously I'm hoping to keep this one! I had a free 384 MB secondary server from a recent migration for a few months, but the primary was deleted the other day…
-
(Quote) My VPS on EPYCSJC3 hasn't seen any recent downtime. No (obvious) evidence of any ransomware or corruption. Perhaps they only accessed one host node?
-
(Quote) When I first got serious about running my own mailserver, a wise man advised me to register my domain directly with a registrar, run my own auth DNS, and host my VPS somewhere other than the registrar. The idea was to limit the 'blast radius…
-
(Quote) Same here, sort of. Looks like Virmach left my migration secondary and killed off the old primary, but that's good for me: 5TB transfer instead of 100 GB! (Quote) Maybe someone is cleaning out old tickets? I got a ticket closed notification…
-
Oops. Looks like the SSL cert for vps.virmach.com expired. I put in a ticket, just in case @VirMach isn't checking this thread every 20 minutes or so.

(Quote) My Chicago VPS went down about an hour ago. Not seeing any maintenance notes. Statusbot shows last update was 55 minutes ago for CHI001, CHI002, and CHI004. Can't load the control panel. Maybe the emergency maintenance was deferred from yest…
-
(Quote) I just glanced at my chi control panel--it's still showing on a Chicago host, but it has a new 62.192.173.0/24 IP address. I manually booted it and it seems to be working fine now.
-
Status page is now showing CHIZ001 and CHIZ002 are back online and my control panel is back--but with the old IP! I booted the VM and can access the console over VNC. It's got a DHCP lease, but I can't ping the gateway or the DHCP server. tcpdump sh…
-
(Quote) My chi VPS was also in 193.151.183.0/24--no control panel access for me yet. Last I checked, the status page shows CHIZ001.VIRM.AC and CHIZ002.VIRM.AC have been offline for about 20 hours. Sorry, I know that's not much help.
-
I planned ahead a bit: verified VNC worked, switch from static to DHCP network config, and set a remote (UDP) syslog server. My secondary VPS went down at 2024-07-07 09:13:41 (UTC+00:00) and moved from Miami to RYZE.ATL-Z010.VMS. Had to manually bo…
-
(Quote) Remind me again how to know if my subnet is routed? I'm comparing a known routed subnet from a tornadovps/prgmr.com to C-Servers. On the target I start "tcpdump -pnvw test.pcap icmp6". From an external host, I then ping an unassig…
-
Now that my FFME003 is back up and running, how do I pick between it and the temporary/secondary server I created? In my case, I'd prefer to keep the temporary/secondary server as it's closer. I'm not in a hurry--just curious if I'd missed a step al…

Invoice #69--please double my transfer quota? ;-) Clever idea on your ssh bastion at remote.cfld.uk. Might want to check it--I can connect over IPv4, but not IPv6. (Yeah, I know, if I've got IPv6 why not go straight to my VPS? Because I was testing…
-
I created a secondary with no data migration and it was replying to pings after a few minutes. Had to use the rescue image to install my keys and change the password. The solus vm panel shows the secondary service has 5 TB of transfer quota instead …

I've done well with TCB in the past, so I'm trying this. Signed up for the $7.69/month VPS (1 GB/5GB/1TB). They pro-rate to the first of the month, so I'm out $2.48 today. TCB hasn't tracked for me yet, but it normally takes an hour or so. BTW, my …

(Quote) Just curious--did you receive an email about this, or notice it on the network status page? I'm seeing the new option to activate a secondary service! Trying to decide if I want to take advantage of the situation to permanently move my $3/y…

My DALZ004 is back online in ATL! Digging through the logs, it's really strange. It went offline on 9/11, but now that I'm back in I can see from munin and the logs it was actually running most of the last five months! It appears to have been not ru…

Not sure how I managed to do it, but I'm seeing links such as https://elfhosted.com/app/app/seafile/ that also 404. Notice the /app/app? I think if you click https://elfhosted.com/apps/, then expands tools, click on https://elfhosted.com/app/webdave…
-
(Quote) Understood. I did think it was odd that I didn't have to verify my email address after creating an account, and now I know why! (Quote) Slightly. I assumed the 404 problem to be something stupid on my end, so I expected (best case!) to pop …
-
If you're interested, I have some feedback: I signed up and tried to access my app dashboard. Nothing but 404. I'm dumb and didn't realize that I had to purchase an app subscription before the app dashboard would work. I think the getting started do…

@Desite deadpool? @balloon my cpanel login doesn't work anymore--how about yours?
-
Any chance for a status update on DALZ004 and DALZ007 (they've been down for 3 months now)? Is the new datacenter still ignoring you?
-
All this mystery box Sturm und Drang is giving me some serious FOMO. If someone wants to dump their POS package for the $3 transfer fee, hit me up. I can do paypal.

EASYVM BF 2023!

[I know this reads like I'm bitching and moaning, but I really don't mean it that way.] DALZ004 has been down over two months now (since 9/11). Any chance of getting it back online in the new DC before black friday brings in a steaming fresh pile of…

(Quote) I've got tickets in for about a week on the ssh and the diks space bump. Any progress? (I tried to login and check on the ticket status, but my password isn't being accepted and the password recovery email hasn't arrived. And now https://tan…

(Quote) Not sure if this counts as a "new block" or not, but I just tried setting rDNS on node RYZE.CHI-Z001.VMS with a 193.151.183.xx address. I received a "Could not connect to DNS server. Please try again later" error message.…

Couple of things I noticed: the control panel sidebar 'flashes' in and out during login between the username/password page and the 2FA page, then again once login is complete.
-
My crazy DNS traffic dropped way off about 18:00 UTC yesterday, which makes me think they'll finally powered off DAL-Z004. (Or at least disconnected the outbound network, or crashed the host, etc.)
-
(Quote) I'm up for a test.
-
(Quote) Update: it appears that 88.214.20.10 has completed his internet telnet scan, as the crazy traffic has stopped. But the webserver at that IP is serving malware. payload.sh appears to install bot.py, and bot.py has some fun functions (attack_u…
-
Anyone else on the 88.214.20.0/24 subnet at FFME003? If so, have you noticed a major increase in dropped packets at your firewall since 9/26? If so, are they all from 88.214.20.10? vnstat is showing about 180 packets/second in, instead of the usual…

Nice. 8fe7702c340cc304dd11a79ddb3e6246. Thanks!
