I can't speak for Alahosts, but I know that Navisite is kicking us off of the old Alabanza platform. We recently received a letter from them informing us that they would be closing our service later this year. We are having to move all of our remaining Alabanza accounts over to cPanel servers. This ...

Sorry, I have to side with Liquidweb here.

RAID1 implies 2 drives, so you're getting 2 250GB SSD drives set up in a RAID1 mirror.

Then 1 1TB SATA drive as a backup drive.

mod_deflate will lower your bandwidth consumption at the cost of more CPU cycles. Will it make your website load faster? This is impossible to know. It will make the size of your website being sent to a browser smaller, so in theory this would increase the speed. But if your CPU is having trouble ke...

Where does one find this auth code?

jtmneal07

One could argue that the opposite is also true. If a vulnerability exists, then it needs to be addressed, hiding it doesn't really solve the underlying problem. If the vulnerability is out in the open, then it can serve to light a fire under those who are responsible for closing the vulnerability. S...

I'm just curious to know if anyone else's Alabanza/Navisite servers are vulnerable to ...

[EDIT BY ARF: This post is in a public forum and we do not discuss vulnerabilities in the public area. ]

Should be able to use something like: convert -delay 100 -loop 0 file1.gif file2.gif file3.gif animated.gif This will combine the files file1.gif , file2.gif , file3.gif into an animated gif named animated.gif . The images will delay for 1 second each and it will loop indefinitely.

I just called the number on the letter from Elavon as we read it to be that you had to have the scan completed and be compliant by 12/15/08 or you would be charged the $135 We now are and have passed all of their requirements so I called to see what we needed to do to let them know. They told me the...

Well finally got a reply it looks like they are going to roll out a fix tomorrow. Hopefully it won't break anything else while they are fixing the mail issue.

jtmneal07

Has anyone else received any updates regarding this issue? It is about a 5 day old issue for us and it is still not working for us. Granted changing the password to something less than 8 characters does seem to work, but I didn't think this was the purpose of the mail server maintenance that was don...

jtmneal07

Does changing the password to the same password clear this up when checking mail using the POP3 server?

Webmail and POP3 use different systems. Resetting the password seems to work when using webmail but it does not work when checking mail with a regular POP3 client.

jtmneal07

Still not hearing anything from Navisite except that they are checking on it has anyone else had any better news

jtmneal07

With webmail once I changed it once to a longer password it worked but it still isn't working with Outlook or Eudora

jtmneal07

Since the update this morning we are having users that have issues with passwords that are more than 8 characters. It works with webmail just not with pop mail. This was in the notice that was sent out that it was one of the problems fixed with the latest update but seems to have caused our clients ...

Well our customer contacted Navisite again yesterday and they told him to contact the DSM owner. But at least they didn't unsuspend them for him this time so I guess they may check a little more before unsuspending accounts now. Or at least I hope they will anyway. Customer still isn't contacting us...

jtmneal07

Well we finally received a reply with an apology saying it was caused by new techs not being properly trained and that they do not "expect" for it to happen again. We will probably delete the guys accounts now I was just waiting because of the open ticket we had about the accounts being magically un...

jtmneal07

I am just pretty much waiting to see what they say and how long it takes for a reply on the tickets. We have made some adjustments to the accounts so they will really have to work at it to get them working again now.

jtmneal07

Yeah it is nice to know that your customers don't really have to pay you they can just wait for you to suspend the account and then call in and have them unsuspended not just once but several times since March 4th this has been going back and forth we suspend it they have it unsuspended. I thought t...

jtmneal07

Well we did not ever receive a response but we did get a ticket added to our ticket system. It looks like our customer that is not paying us called Navisite and some how they decided to unsuspend the accounts for him. He is not listed as a valid contact in any way with us never has been but they hav...

No update yet haven't heard anything from "senior system admin"

jtmneal07

It is definitely unsuspended completely when they unsuspend. The message in the todo list is Susp_Manual -r 'Susp_Manual' removed by 'System Manager' - What is really weird is it is just the same three accounts. And they are on two different servers. I have tested with suspending other accounts and ...

jtmneal07

I have came across a problem with 3 accounts that I am trying to suspend in the DSM. They suspend correctly and then a few hours later the DSM system automatically unsuspends them I opened a ticket on it 4 days ago with navisite they just suspended them and said all was well. But of course they didn...

Nameservers work on a round-robin style. The keywords primary and secondary nameserver are really misguided. When a DNS lookup is performed for a domain it has a 50-50 chance of being looked up on the nameserver that is listed as primary and a 50-50 chance of being looked up on the nameserver that i...

I' m about to order a server in LW. Should I order it with "ServerSecure" activated or not? Its probably not a bad idea. From what I'm reading on it, it just adds some extra server security hardening extras to the server. Unless you have someone else administering your server or if you feel comfort...

I have heard of some slight compatibility issues with scripts that were written for PHP4 and they don't work with PHP5. However, for the most part, any reasonable script that is still being maintained should work with PHP5. PHP announced on July 13th that PHP4 was going end-of-life on December 31, 2...

When you say the client isn't getting any e-mail do you mean that they are unable to POP their mailbox or their mailbox on the server is not receiving any mail?

jtmneal07

To my knowledge webmail just read directly from the file system, it does not use POP or IMAP.

Client isn't getting email. What do I do? Here's what I tried: 1) test from command line off network - FAILED 2) test from command line on network - OK 3) check account quota - OK 4) check box quota - OK 5) check if domain works - OK 6) check if IP works - OK Any ideas?

You wold first setup your accounts on the new server. The new host should assign you new IP numbers for your nameservers. You would then setup your accounts and upload your files on the new server. Then to modify the IP's on the nameservers you would have to contact the registrar that registered you...

jtmneal07

Is there any truth that the IPs that aren't working are due to this problem with the 207.x.x.x IPs they referred to in Navisite's last update on their website? I did a traceroute to an IP that is not working and I am seeing significant packet loss (about 40%) at 207.211.1.66. Other IPs that are work...

jtmneal07

So is that it? We still have 101 accounts that are not up and running. Are they not working on getting the IPs up and running anymore?

jtmneal07

It looks like they are bringing up separate Class C IPs one at a time. If the IP address you are trying to access is on a Class C network that has not been brought up, then it won't be working. This is why some accounts may be working and some accounts may not be working. This is the best I have bee...
