(Quote) £4.5/year? Very expensive! What do you offer for $0.01 per decade? :tongue: Jokes aside, great deal at low low prices! It is true that sometimes we only need 1 location but end up buying 3 as a pack. More hosts should offer a similar deal!

(Quote) Scratch that, this tutorial worked fine: https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/configure-ssh-2fa Turns out, my ssh client was the issue on the windows machine. Putty is the way to go. On linux/mac, terminal (or terminal emulator) works fine with TOT…

(Quote) I agree with you there. If there is a targetted attack on my server, there is very little I can do, given my knowledge, except just turn it off for a few days and hope they go away. That being said, I doubt I'll be targetted for hacks g…

(Quote) I'll look into wireguard, but it looks complicated to setup. Fwknop, never heard of it. I'll see how far i can go with it. (Quote) > % cat .ssh/config > Host givetheserversomename> HostName insert-ip-or-dns-name-here…

(Quote) Except that my IP keeps changing (dynamic IP) so thats not a option unless I setup a VPN server specificly for this. But if the VPN server dies, all my servers die with it. So ya...

How about a simplified guideline or checklist to see if a host offering services is a scam-host? From what I see on LET, most people do not know the tell-tale signs of a scam host (including me apparently since I got scammed twice). Most of you he…

(Quote) I run a custom PHP script that connects to open ports on my regular servers and sends me a notification if the server failed to connect after 6 attempts. Pool the data from 3 or 4 of these servers distributed all over the world, and you hav…

Botnet! I usually use them as uptime trackers or private VPNs.

WTF! I can't believe it! We are in Q3 of 2020! Terahost? 2~4 letter name starting/ending with host? Have seen a few of them go belly tits up

Bought the lowest plan. Hope there isn't any weird capping on it.

As the spammers say, very informative post. Thank you. Sad to see a good host turn scammer...

Host doc went from recommended to scam. How long was I away for?

Wait, wasn't host doc supposed to be a good host? What happened?

(Quote) Double the protection, double the safety, double the data breach chance.

(Quote) LOL, isn't that a given? Avast started showing up with ads and making pc slow. So wiped system and reinstalled OS.

(Quote) Similar, but different. First, get a cheap vps with fixed ip. Then forward ports using reverse SSH tunneling. Here is a guide I wrote: https://somik.org/persistent-reverse-tunnel-using-autossh/

Previously used avast. Then switched to panda. Now using a readonly version of porteus Linux with preconfigured pi hole based adblocker. Still using panda on Windows gaming machine, that gets powered on over the weekends...

(Quote) Haha, yep! I heard large primes tend to make a hash algo produce better results, so ya.

Cool! I contributed 0.05% of that. Lol

Wait, I missed something. Why are people posting numbers?

I thought we would be lancing for free... I even brought my own lance and horse... (Image)

(Quote) If you got an Nat vps, it should come with a IPv4 port range with a custom SSH port. Check your activation email for details. If you're using the correct ping for IPv6 with -6 and it doesn't respond, the VPS may not be online or w…

@poisson GPU passthough will give you video. You'll need at least 3 cards, 1 for Linux, 1 for windows, 1 for proxmox. If you count the built in one, and your existing gfx card, then you'll need one more. You also need keyboard and mouse a…

Isn't your thread of LET still unresolved? Or is this a continuous offer?

Consolidate it into dedis, but keep the vps as is. * pro idler.

I regret buying 4pcs of 256 GB micro SD card 2 weeks before black friday... I could have saved $40 dollar if I waited just 2 weeks...
