(Quote) That's a clever solution that makes good (and unexpected) use of a GitHub account. If I may say so, the author appears to be mainly addressing an audience that would prefer not to pay for a domain or for a hosting service, and according…

(Quote) Intriguing. I don't think that I was really familiar with the notion "branded link" before. =)
-
(Quote) This looks nice and may be more of an "enterprise solution" than YOURLS is, but It may be overkill for my needs on this server. Also, I noticed: (Quote) :o

(Quote) You're right that this would be a good use for cheap shared hosting. (I have shared hosting with @SmallWeb that I play around with.) At the moment, the server in question (a VPS) is already up and running, and I'd like to use the …
-
(Quote) Yes, on this particular server, it would be offered as a private service, so I would need to protect it sufficiently. If I tried to offer a public service, it would be on another server. :)
-
Although I understand the attraction of "free", a modest but reliable web hosting service really doesn't cost much these days, so I personally would prefer to pay something for peace of mind and accountability of the provider rather t…

(Quote) I feel that @georgedatacenter should have quadrupled the price of the first offer ($3 --> $12) and also quadrupled the amount of stock (1 --> 4 or 2 --> 8 or 3 --> 12 or ...?). :)

Nextcloud is in a different comparison class than FileGator, so there wouldn't be much point in directly comparing the two. Clearly, if all that you want/need is a web-based file manager, then Nextcloud would be overkill, but the question (whic…
-
Although FileGator looks shiny and nice, I wonder what its main use case is. After all, we have ftp. Also, since version 7 is "completely rewritten from scratch" and dates from only last year, I'd be a bit cautious before installing …

(Quote) You may need to wait a while still. I suspect that that was a once-in-a-lifetime offer.
-
(Quote) Fair enough (by the time that I saw that offer, it was gone!). We'll see what @georgedatacenter says.
-
(Quote) For $25/year, I can't really imagine that it would be a dedicated thread. I think that he simply forgot to write "fair share" next to it.
-
(Quote) Indeed, and they say that 5 domains is a soft limit: (Quote) (From https://www.migadu.com/pricing/#what-is-the-soft-limit-on-the-micro-plan ) (Quote) Yeah, 20 out/day does seem pretty limiting for anyone who actually uses their email accou…

(Quote) Thanks for your initiative. I would suggest Debian and Devuan: * Debian: https://www.debian.org/mirror/ftpmirror.en.html * Devuan: https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan_mirror_walkthrough.txt

A good piece of advice is to get domains from registrars and not from hosts. If the domains were bought under his name, he should stand a decent chance of getting them back, but if they were bought under the host's name, it may be difficult. I…

(Quote) If I may ask, what score does your mail server obtain at https://www.mail-tester.com/ ?
-
(Quote) But the thing is that a properly set up mail server should have a PTR record. Spammers often use mail servers that aren't set up properly. Naturally, we can't say whether this is Barracuda's exact issue or not, but at the sam…
-
(Quote) A PTR record is a sine qua non if you want to send mail. (And you shouldn't really expect Barracuda to tell you this.)
-
Speaking from a distance, my understanding is that LXC uses (can use) a standard kernel, whereas OpenVZ requires a modified kernel (which in practice is a modified RHEL/CentOS kernel). Other things being equal, this is a big advantage of LXC over Op…

If you're trying to save money, another possibility is Yandex, which apparently allows up to 1000 email accounts on one's domain. Here's a relevant YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKXMfcEGCuc (I use Yandex but I use t…

(Quote) You're probably right, but then he should have been pleased to have gotten the 20% discount just in time. :) (His regret would seem more justified to me if he had ordered KVM250 just before the present offer.)
-
(Quote) Technically, the -20% discount applied to the plans KVM500+, so if he ordered KVM250, he wouldn't have gotten a -20% discount. :) (At least this is how your previous offer was presented.) Edit: But, yeah, in general, there's alwa…

(Quote) I suspect that low-end hosting forums aren't the best place to look for such interest. In my experience on low-end hosting forums, the great majority of people want to run Linux and/or Windows, with a small minority opting for a BSD va…

(Quote) You guys gotta learn how to let go =)

(Quote) I can confirm that there was something unusual yesterday late afternoon (EU time) with the US storage server: my Hetrix monitor kept reporting that my storage VPS was unreachable (up, then down, over an extended period of time); in addition,…

@RapToN Two quick questions: * Do you allow (publicly available) custom ISOs? * What control panel do you use?

(Quote) And to imagine that I thought that you were an OVH fanboy ;)

(Quote) He does have a LET account but he doesn't qualify there either (for a KVM from you)
