nope :) I mean, could you send that root password to baklava@example.com instead? I'm having problems with my other e-mail. whoa, LOL cool, then if you sign up, that'll be two for today ;) hahahaah heh http://jobs.arstechnica.com/list/444/ speaking of porn heh Gur novyvgl gb haqrefgnaq gung guvf vf ABG fgebat rapelcgvba. wtf is that I'm trying to deicde whether or not my desire for FreeBSD is worth the money right now baklava: you're looking at pgrmr's $6 plan's huh? ;) whats pgrmr another vps ahh jeev: http://www.prgmr.com/xen/ yea i'm looking cheap but if you need the bandwidth heh i'd try it one day maybe but this is perfect for me i dont even need this one! jeev just loves me ;) lol even their colo is cheap until their he.net goes out up_the_irons: not the $6, but their longer contracts are tempting with good VPS stats nobody serious about being a service provider can be single homed they don't have HVM baklava: gotcha right, it's all paravirt you try he yet ? NetBSD is a pain jeev: no you want FreeBSD ballen: my ns2 is still NetBSD 3.0 ;) under Xen, heh not saying its not a good OS just more of a pain you can do FreeBSD, but you have to do a bit of a workaround... at the end of October, 8.0 is supposed to be released with paravirt support I'll believe it when I see it though Kip has been absent on the FreeBSD-Xen mailing list so it's not looking great i wonder if that is losing momentum b/c HVM solutions are becoming a viable alternative well there are howtos for the FreeBSD setup and it's in the FreeBSD handbook for 7.0 on Xen 3.0, but it's a little different with 3.3 chip manufacturers can get their chips to run any faster (I have a 2.4GHz Xeon that I got in 2003 ;), so they just pack more features; and one big one right now is HVM Red Hat is supposedly putting their eggs with KVM Given that KVM got accepted into the linux kernel, that's not really surprising Xen has been crying to get in, but Linus, et. al. have sighted numerous problems, and have refused to do so yea Xen isn't doing so hot, at least from what I've seen XenServer is a pain the ass compared to ESX it really sucked when a Xen box I administer started kernel panicking every 5 minutes, which I suspect was the new kernel based NFS, and I couldn't do anything about it. Cuz I can't upgrade the Linux kernel without Xen having done so first and doesn't run FreeBSD worth a shit the prgmr guys are releasing a Xen book published by NoStarch in October so at least they're involved that's cool To formalize this, I will guarantee 99.5% uptime - this means that if service is down for more than 3.6 hours in any given month, affected customers will get a service credit that is equal to 25% of what they paid for the month in which the SLA was not met. (Note, this is down from 100%, but also note, I do pay this out. Many customers actually have complained about not being billed... turns out it was that because of the service credits due to my mist damn 99.5 ? lol i'ven ever seen anyting so low i dont blame him but still but yea, I'm wary about running production machines with the current FreeBSD issues in Xen yea, you can see his blog with posted downtimes unfortunately, money is just an issue for me atm... at least until I find out about this job by the end of the month and don't want to be jumping all over the place, so I have to choose carefully ;) i think ballen would freak if I had 3.6 hours of downtime in a month, OH SNAP ;) okay, my girlfriend is getting frustrated, I've gotta go :P hah yep baklava: l8r! talk to you guys later, thanks again np, see you later later http://jobs.arstechnica.com/list/405/ Wierd can't find any info about that company http://aapcomm.com/ solid website god RHEL is gay hahahahaa RHEL is indeed gay prolly should nuke it and install FreeBSd that site reminds me of: https://www.trit.net/corp/ Qsource: ^^ you should remove 'Website coming soon', has been that way for years :) Qsource: other than that, it is actually a very no non-sense, to-the-point, site :) haha AAP Communications, LLC
