Does your VPN account support OpenBSD?
VPN or VPS?
VPS
Yeah they support OpenBSD as far as I know.
you can mount whatever you want
as long as you can install it from a boot medium
Oh wondering I'm been for OpenBSD VPS for a long time finaly I can dump CentOS.
no paravirtualization here
Its a fully virtualised guest :D
yup
How's the PF performance ?
there was something about needing a patch for the particular ethernet virtual card, but that may be fixed by now
vxdscn: I'm enjoying Scientific Linux 6 - its a nice step up from EL5.
I have FreeBSD to have pf, zfs on root, and a bigger user community (more ports)
gave up on OpenBSD last year after 3 years
How for an additional IP address?
ipv4 is getting a bit scarce
I think it says how much on the site.
but you get ipv6 out of the box
everyone gets a /48, I think
If you can find a use for all those IPv6 addresses I'll be astounded!
yeah - it's like a few bucks a month for each additional
and if you need more than a /28, you need paperwork
but that's just internet rules, not arp rules
or maybe it was a /29
one of those
Any discounts for 12months perpaid ?
we have now officially entered the era of "scarce ipv4"
and what's the SLA?
I don't think the SLA has been officially published, but I can't recall being down at all in a year.
and that's for 5 VPS here
oh wait... one of my VMs had to be rebooted once.
downtime about 5-10 minutes
I don't know the SLA but my box had 4 months uptime until I rebooted it.
That was 2 days ago.
yeah - generally, unless there's a security bug in the underlying Linux boxes, nothing gets taken down
and these boxes have only the essentials installed
Thanks I will signup soon!
I'm not sure, but I think the hosts run icky ubuntu.
vxdscn: Yeah arp is a gem in the dirt.
up_the_irons would be able to fill in further.
hopefully he's taking a day off though. :)
Good, I can drive him harder when he gets back.
I've ordered a new whip off ebay.
And I just finished rusting up some more razor blades.
I saw two presentations on Zabbix at FISL, and I'm going to try it instead of Nagios.
Zabbix does more than monitor and alert... it can also generate detailed graphs and even attempt automated repairs.
Oh lawd. Imagine that last feature abused.
with great power comes great responsibility
RandalSchwartz: had to let my gf have the camel book today.  thanks asshole.  :P
heh
not the llama book?
the camel book is mostly just a pretty version of "perldoc"
i have the llama book here at home, but we were out running around and i had the camel book in my truck.  i'll sure she'll end up with this one too.
we got out of the car and were walking into a store and she says, "you know perl, right? i was reading about it the other day and decided i needed to learn it."
first cisco, now perl. i think she's trying to keep me.
heh
"she's a keeper"
Or take your job from you.
so I tried KDE 4.6 today.
Within an hour I was back on GNOME3.
KDE is terrible :(
mike-burns: hah, she can't.  i quit my job two months ago!
