an admins around
?
or support toddf: support@arpnetworks.com if not
you've got a vps? scwt: well i just have a couple of questions
no , but wanting to purchase one toddf: some of us (me included) are happy customers that might even answer questions if only they were asked scwt: heheeh
i want to run bots irc on the vps
is that allowed? mike-burns: Yes, but don't be illegal about it. scwt: just eggdrops
no xdcc mike-burns: In general, do anything legal unless it bothers another customer/the network. scwt: ok
hmmm , im looking at the packages mike-burns: (Note: I am also not an admin; also just a customer.) scwt: how much does the ips does the vps acc come with ? ***: scwt has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 260 seconds)

hd crashed
lol
i have a couple questions
on a vps , how many bots *eggdrops* would i be able to run? toddf: you will have the mem limitation and your admin skills and the efficiency of your program and bandwidth charges if you used too much bandwidth
cpu and mem are not overcommitted
also your choice in os will make a difference only you can quantify
if you decide to choose an os not supported it is common to provide an iso that you can hit f12 on the vga console via vnc and just re-install to your choice of os
s/not supported/that does not have a template provided by arpnetworks/
so in the end, it depends
you decide what resources you need in a system to run your bots
and order the vps accordingly
considering of course that the vps at arpnetworks tend to be `snappy' compared to other places based on the comments of those who have migrated here
I can't comment, since this is my first place I've got a vps at, and am quite pleased in general
its known but not officially advertised, if your bots reach networks via v6, you'll end up with no bandwidth usage charges for that scwt: ok
sounds resonable
:) toddf: you'll find that anything outside of instantaneous vps setup is typically more than reasonable around here
aka provisioning happens overnight up_the_irons: toddf: oh, i did not know ARP was your first VPS experience. I've de-virginized you, hot toddf: I've had some clients and vmware experiences, but ARP is the first VPS I've paid for
I tried another one at the same time, but only paid for one month of their nat'ed non public `but mapped from an assigned public IP' vm up_the_irons: haha
oh yeah, i remember that
that's just weird toddf: I'll gladly pay $.05/mo more for more ram, real ips (and v6 as well), and secure remote console access, thankyouverymuch up_the_irons: :) phlux: 'lo folks
up_the_irons: may I query you? scwt: any admin around to setup vps up_the_irons: phlux: if it's quick, otherwise email support -: up_the_irons wonders what the question was... scwt: any admin around to setup vps up_the_irons: scwt: vps provisioning is generally done within 24 hours of order, during non-low-stock times (notices are placed on the website and order confirmation email if there *is* a low stock notice) scwt: ok up_the_irons: at which point, the notice will tell you when you can expect the vps by. fyi, right now, i'm not low in stock (just built a new server a couple days ago), so the 24 hour turnaround applies scwt: ok
so the special if i get 5 ips its seperate boxes?
ok ordered
Thank You!
We will contact you by email at scewter@hotmail.com when your order is ready.

;-) up_the_irons: scwt: no, 5 IPs assigned to your VPS, should you want more than 1 IP scwt: ok
and 30 subnet? up_the_irons: /30 subnet yields 1 available IP scwt: so ex
123.234.234.122
123.234.234.123
123.234.234.124
etc? up_the_irons: huh? :) scwt: well , if i want to run eggdrops lets say 10
i wont use the same ip :o up_the_irons: then you'll need more IPs
5 IPs total is $4 extra; 13 IPs total is $8 extra
as stated on the order form scwt: i see
mmm
what is 30 subet?
what im trying to ask is
i have 1 ip alwready
Thank You!

wwops up_the_irons: double paste
hehe scwt: (/30 subnet, FREE up_the_irons: scwt: /30 subnet is 1 IP
scwt: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIDR_notation
here's a cheat sheet: http://infocenter.guardiandigital.com/manuals/IDDS/node9.html
see the /28, /29, and /30 on the bottom
'number of hosts' is the # of IPs in the subnet, but **NOTE** 3 IPs are always used up right away for: network number, gateway, broadcast address scwt: so basically with the option i choosed , i cant run anymore then 1 bot
? up_the_irons: scwt: if you require 1 IP per bot (forgive my ignorance, I have not ran a bot in a long time ;), then yes scwt: well i can run 20 bots on ex 213.123.123.2 then those would be clones up_the_irons: I know several customers run bots and tend to get by without a bunch of IPs. Not sure how that works though
ok, i c
brb scwt: well with one ip vps is useless to me :o
so can you not put that order threw
i thought i have 1 ip with 30 subnet masks like 123.123.233.1 2 3 4 5 6 7
:0 up_the_irons: scwt: i'll cancel the order, no problem scwt: thank you
:)
see some vps companies provide alwready with ips and ipv4 6
