too slick, but kinda slow. https + js = console at chunkhost.com (trying out their free beta trial)
pricing is nowhere near comparable, just seeing how much they suck .. ;-)
A js console would be nice.
I hate using VNC when all I really want it a text session.
have you ever looked up the ssh keys option in your control panel?
you can get ssh access to serial console through that
honestly js console is flashy, but just feels wrong in so many ways. true ssh + xterm anyday for me.
with true ssh I can log my console remotely, and I do.
Yeah true.
all the os is the web browser now. *sigh*.
I have my ssh keys available to me now (was just setting up my FAS account so I can use Koji).
I should give arp my pub key.
up_the_irons: Yubikey integration would be cool too BTW.
what is yubikey?
oh another key fob thing
yecht, their js reboot thing disconnects on reboot. whats the point if you can't see it bootup?
http://wiki.chunkhost.com/ipv6 <-- wonder how long they'll permit the reference to http://arpnetworks.com/ to survive ;-)
I haven't seen an Australian VPS service (within my budget anyway) that does IPv6.
I added the blurb at the bottom. the other two blurbs were from rather clueless individuals
(imho)
We have some major people involved in IPv6 down here but the takeup by industry is almost non-existant.
Internode is the only ISP that provides IPv6 to their customers...
I doubt the NBN will do IPv6 (idiots...)
I have heard when I was poking around that the CEO of the last VPS company I was with said "we intend to go to IPV6 very soon".
I queried them myself (to try help them test) but got a flat out no.
That was Jumba.
DDevine: NBN control the protocols used by ISPs?
G: Don't know, hoping not.
DDevine: I don't see how they could, it's just Layer 1/2 stuff iirc
Yeah you'd think so.
gotta love TV directors...  "The IP address is 552.2331.x.y"  yeah...
at least I think it was one of the CSIs (or was it NCIS) had the sense of using IPv6 (although still completely non-spec & outside the documentation ranges) in one episode
it was NCIS,  my wife loves the show.
NCIS: Los Angelas occasionally has unixy commands shown,  and IPv6 addresses.
jpalmer: it was NCIS that did the IPv6 thing... right
actually, to tell the truth, NCIS actually does those sort of scenes better than other shows, abiet dramatised a bit too much still
jpalmer: btw, I did a double take when I saw you replying about NCIS (as one of the characters in the show is 'jpalmer' ;)
