PorterTech: Hey guys, how long does it usually take to switch you VPS to a new image
?
going from gentoo to freebsd
mike-burns: I've never tried but my guess is that it happens overnight.

i wont distribute anything like ubuntuard
Arenlor: http://torrents.freebsd.org:8080/ < That help?

Arenlor: There really aren't too many legit torrents.
jeev: :/

jlgaddis: i found one

pc600: I've never used a virtual server before, but can a game server succesfully run on one or is the low-latency cpu scheduling involved a lost cause?
jlgaddis: hey pc600
pc600: hey
jlgaddis: dunno if garry's around or not. if you shoot him an e-mail he'll likely get back to you pretty quick. support@arpnetworks.com
pc600: jlgaddis - Have you ever used one of their virtual servers? I lost my free colo and need a solution :)
***: rossij has joined #arpnetworks
jlgaddis: pc600: yep, my web site is on one of 'em.
since a few weeks ago, anyway. dunno how the gaming stuff might work out since i don't game, but i can't bitch.
rossij: If anyone is around, where are vps instances hosted? East or west coast?
jlgaddis: LAX
wilshire annex
pc600: jlgaddis - Well if can run VoIP (asterisk) worth a damn, that would be another good test :)
rossij: jlgaddis: Thanks
pc600: jlgaddis - Hell, youv'e got a box?
jlgaddis: yeah
pc600: jlgaddis - Probably even an iperf-style test is ebtter than nothing :)
or for $20 I might just try it...
jlgaddis: wget http://arpnetworks.com/100mb.bin
pc600: yeah, not very good for picking up the jitter type stuff.
-: jlgaddis nods
jlgaddis: as 25795 is them
native v6 too =)
pc600: hehe
I'm sure the network side is fine, I'm just curious how the virtualization holds up
For stuff that's pissy about prompt cpu scheduling (VoIP, game servers, etc).;
jlgaddis: yeah, nfi. i'm more of a network guy than a server guy =)
pc600: I'm just going to buy one they have a 30 day money back guarantee :)
No SuSE :(
Ohh well
jlgaddis: tell garry i sent ya =)
btw, he usually sets things up at night (his time) and i know he's doing some maintenance tonight about 1am pst, so he'll probably have ya set up in a few hours if you order tonight
pc600: jlgaddis - which website is yours? evilrouters?
jlgaddis: yeah
pc600: what package did you get? $20/special?
jlgaddis: yeah, the one in /topic
pc600: It lets me order the special with linux
I wonder if they'll honor it :)
jlgaddis: i'm sure he will, my coworker signed up too and his is linux
pc600: ahh looks like they make steam for freebsd, so that might be an option
The only diff is 100gb vs. 200gb.
It's amazing how bandwidth is practically free.
anymore...
It's all about location.
jlgaddis: cogent drove prices down with their shitty bandwidth =)
pc600: hehe
Seriously, at $20/mo, I don't expect much more than a place to dump a website :)
But you're right on the B/W
The trick on B/W is still transit/last-mile to non datacenter locations
The costs for commercial connectiosn is still crazy. And it's all local loop

Arenlor: bleagh sendmail is a pain
jlgaddis: cd /usr/ports/mail/postfix && make install clean
Arenlor: eh?
ballen_: agreed with jlgaddis
postfix > sendmail
jlgaddis: i used to edit sendmail.cf manually back in the day. i don't miss that a bit.
***: ballen has quit IRC (Nick collision from services.)
ballen_ is now known as ballen
Arenlor: I've at least got a little experience with sendmail
jlgaddis: postfix is a breeze
Arenlor: Heh figured out what seems to be my problem. It doesn't like my mx record. Not sure why.
jlgaddis: error message?
Arenlor: 553 5.3.5 arenhost.net. config error: mail loops back to me (MX problem?)
also 554
***: blovett has quit IRC (Remote closed the connection)
jlgaddis: ahh, that's in the sendmail faq =)
sendmail doesn't know it's the mx host, iirc
Arenlor: bleagh, thought I had set that up already.
now just two things left with mail that I want to do
jlgaddis: 1) require reverse dns 2) enable greylisting
?
Arenlor: No, have it so that arenlor@arenhost.net and arenlor@arenhost.info are both different (not even sure where to begin) and have it so that *@arenhost.net gets redirected to a catch-all account.
ToastyX: step 1. remove sendmail
step 2. install postfix
Arenlor: Is postfix honestly any easier to configure?
ToastyX: yes, very much so
jlgaddis: yep, and when you start screwing with virtusertable to do what you want, you'll agree
Arenlor: It doesn't seem that bad actually.
Wait, should have cleared this up before-hand, I do C and PHP. I'm use to ugly retarded situations that give me ultimate power.
jlgaddis: haha
makes complete sense now
"vi sendmail.cf" and scroll about halfway down through the 35k file =)
you'll be right at home
Arenlor: I prefer nano actually, never got comfortable with vi nor emacs
I think I remember reading something a while back about up_the_irons performing maintenance tonight?
jlgaddis: he emailed me this morning and said he needed to make a change that'd affect me
i don't know the extent of what he's doing
