(Quote) I assume node != VM. (Quote) Indeed. Thanks for the reply.
-
(Quote) Lucky you. I don't think I've had all VMs working at once since about June of 2022. I'm very seriously considering making 2023 the last year as a Virmach customer.
-
(Quote) I have not found that page to reflect the reality of individual VMs being online whatsoever.
-
(Quote) Sure, but lots of providers, particularly many low-end providers, do not get their addresses directly from an RIR, but rather an upstream provider. When that upstream relationship changes, as it often does, the low end provider has to renum…

Thanks @yoursunny, @aqua, @alwyzon, and @Abdullah. We're still interested in /8 gaps so I'll take a look. So you are aware, we are increasingly more discerning when it comes to a service based on the /8 alone. The past year has exposed h…

(Quote) I'm seeing yet another wave of IPv4 address changes. Perhaps related? I've never seen such instability in address assignments.
-
(Quote) It works, but you still need to do the contract renewal. And in my experience with a system from there, a power off+on every few weeks is required, because the system just seems to become unavailable regularly.
-
(Quote) Disappointing. I've stopped ordering anything new and am slowly reducing what remains. The BF/sales prices remain appealing, but I'm sorry to say I've found the unpredictability and inconsistency is just no longer tolerable …
-
There are some free tier or time-limited free options (e.g., Oracle Cloud, year of credit with Google/Azure/AWS). There are already v6-only or NAT offers under $10 (US) / year. You may see some BF specials that include a public IPv4 addresses as t…

(Quote) This seems to have been fixed now.
-
Maybe it is just me, or maybe I missed some news, but it also may be, at the moment at least, it is impossible to "Cancel Service". I'm getting a "Oops! Something went wrong and we couldn't process your request." page …

OneProvider has a Nagos location for $3/month with their OneCloud platform. 10GB SSD Storage,1 Core(s) 512MB Memory, 500GB @ 1Gbps.

Some possible edits to be made based on this comment: https://lowendspirit.com/discussion/comment/101664/#Comment_101664

I find there are very few active providers under ColoCrossing these days. A few options on where to find providers: * Look in the Offers category on this site or on other forums. * The LES registered providers list - starting to get out of date * …
-
(Quote) Thanks for thinking of me. I wasn't expecting any more responses to this thread. I've updated the list of /8's in the original post since there has been some changes since the thread start date.
-
(Quote) You might be interested to learn about DANE, but after much early hype it has essentially crashed and burned as the way past the multi-root X.509 certificate trust anchors we seem to be stuck with.
-
(Quote) Like what devices and servers? Android, Windows, iOS, Mac OS X, Linux, etc. they all have it, usually on by default and used if provided by the network. I think the majority of hosting providers, even like low-end ones here, have it at lea…
-
(Quote) No. IP is the network layer like it or not. All others have been relegated to the dustbin of history or the occasional, always thus far, limited research project.
-
(Quote) That was in response to another commenter's suggestion. I know that sometimes a problem arises that the interface name has changed with a kernel update, and that networking will not be operational until that is changed in the config. …
-
(Quote) Yes, but the host is marked as offline and has been for awhile. I've tried powering off, re-installing, rescue, and probably other things without any luck. I've seen the eth0->ens3 change that often needs to be done, but this …
-
Maybe this is mentioned somewhere in this enormous thread, but I didn't find it in the last few pages... the LAX node that went down in June, my system that was there is still down, although it shows a new address and purportedly on LAXA011. I…
-
(Quote) If instead of always using root, it can help limit system-wide consequences. At least if you don't prefix the command with sudo by default. You can probably find many stories of people having avoid disaster, because they weren't …
-
(Quote) They shouldn't. Practically anyone can get up to a /32 with minimum fuss. And if you already have an ASN, it should be essentially be a done deal just for the asking.
-
(Quote) Wow. Do they sell bottles of air with that?
-
@hostiko, any plans to add PayPal as a payment option?
-
There are some recent offers on LES that should be considered: * LittleCreek - $13.95/year * Ramnode - $12/year
-
(Quote) I saw the same thing. Some minimal network stack was running, so they were responding to ICMP echo requests, but they were effectively dead, like the disk was gone perhaps? Now getting the infamous: Operation Timed Out After 90001 Millisec…
-
(Quote) This is bad optics for LET admins. The part that came before was reasonable: (Quote) I assume LET admins will remove the "Top Host" designations from all providers who have held it as long or longer as VirMach.
-
(Quote) Whatever changed shortly after fixed it, re-installed with Debian11. System, config, and connectivity appears good now.
-
(Quote) Ordered with Debian 11. The order process was fine. Was provisioned an 1CPU, 1GB RAM, 25GB disk, 1GB traffic on a AMS node. Was marked as offline. Went into the control panel and tried to boot it. Nothing. Re-installed with Debian 11. …
-
Windows traceroute and unix traceroute work a little differently. Windows by default will send ICMP ehco request packets in the trace, unix will use UDP messages. Is it possible ICMP messages somewhere near your target destination are being filter…
-
(Quote) Are you sure about that date? I was on LA10GKVM14 and it was last reachable sometime just after 2022-06-23T05:17:00Z.
-
(Quote) You too? I think you won't be the only one to let that deal expire. : -)
-
(Quote) I believe that node is not just offline, but effectively unrecoverable. If I were to guess that node is just the lowest of low priority, maybe didn't have a lot of expensive VMs on it since the complaints about it seem to have been pre…
