how to fix your server, the funny way - http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=kSjRLxGxEhg
which is "better", opening a ticket, or just emailing support@arpnetworks?
emailing them I *think*
ok duly noted.
emailing opens a ticket iirc, so whatever interface you prefer
i was once told our bandwidth usage info is somewhere in the customer control panel?  Can someone clue me into where?
Dash lists VPS and IP assignments but the details of the service don't seem to have my current usage info
I think you need to request it
ooooh
wonder if i can request they double my bandwidth too
they're offering 400GB/mo for same price i currently pay for 200GB/mo
i'll open up a ticket to see where i get, thanks!
yes, look at the homepage at the bottom, VPS powerups
i clicked freebsd, seem to have received debian.      just thought "hey, out of box reset when you get around to it."
still have 6 months left on other VPS.     In no hurry.
wallshot1: there's a one-time fee for that, iirc.
to increase bandwidth?
i'm making a case that the bandwidth assigned to me is not on par with their current pricing.   maybe they'll be in a good mood and adjust it so it doesn't seem new customers get preferential treatment over loyal ones
still costs labor to do that
afaik i'm not using it all yet, and am not gonna put up a big stink, but i thought it was interesting and wanted to see what they felt about it
of course it does
should take all of 30 seconds :)
unless quota adjustment is one of the systems every company has that makes them go through silly hoops for trivial tasks, one can never tell which simple things are tied into absurdly complex solutions
i'm just wishing for it now to hopefully avoid needing to beg for it in the future
still overwhelmed at the vast volume of ipv6 addresses in a /48
i mean if you sold them for just a single penny each .... you'd be filthy rich
not that you could, but y ou know, if such a thing were possible
enough for each cell in the human body to have it's own ip address once we're all cybernetically linked up
hell I guess a /64 alone would be enough for thousands of bodies
okay i'm done turning ipv6-amazes-me into ipv6-scifi-nightmares
.... oooh, more "suggested reading" from the soon-to-begin job.
:)
"review your C, C++, python and QT..... matlab.... fortran.    And forget perl exists."
hahaha
wow
RandalSchwartz: cover your ears :)
Perl's allowed *elsewhere* in the building.      just not in the group i'll be in.
I don't know enough Perl to miss it?     But I just think it's amusing
perl is great
if you want that application done in 2 days instead of 3 months
i prefer ruby
but for SA scripts, i go with what's standardized
which means /bin/sh when i can and perl when i can't
I'm not sure if #arpnetworks can handle this much text :)
it might implode
:D
i have to accept some of the blame.   sometimes my fingers just don't stop. :)  but i'll help aleviate the issue by stepping out now!
anyone using CentOS6 on arp?
