[08:22] WaREX: what is the domain name? [08:22] jpalmer: xaique.com, at gandi [08:24] ok, gandi offers DNS hosting for free, right? [08:26] If I remember correctly, ARP doesn't offer DNS hosting, only reverse DNS. so you'll either want to use gandi's DNS servics, or sign up for a free one like http://dns.he.net [08:27] I've never used gandi, so, I'd be limited help there. but if you want to signup for dns.he.net, I can walk you through the whole thing [08:38] *** dzup has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [08:47] *** dzup has joined #arpnetworks [12:22] *** dzup has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 276 seconds) [13:28] *** dr_jkl has joined #arpnetworks [13:28] up_the_irons: ping [13:46] spurious pong [13:46] pong (DUP!) [14:36] *** anisfarhana has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving) [14:39] WaREX: your friend is wrong; we don't provide DNS hosting because every decent registrar on the planet already does so. Go into Gandi and use their DNS service. Tell it your domain name and the IP of your VPS. [14:39] dr_jkl: pong [14:42] *** Ehtyar has joined #arpnetworks [14:45] gandi is a good one [14:50] (or pick someone that offers anycast \o/) [15:25] *** HighJinx has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) [15:30] *** HighJinx has joined #arpnetworks [16:00] WaREX: for future reference if you want to check what A record, MX or Name Server the domain is currently set to: http://dns.mnathani.com/investigate.php?Domain=xaique.com [16:04] lol mnathani # Your IP has been restricted due to excessive access, please wait a bit [16:04] (under "Whois report for xaique.com") [16:20] hmm, brycec: works fine for me now. Probably need to have some sort of caching proxy to prevent those in the future. [16:26] couldn't hurt. but probably not worth it for the "massive" onslaught of traffic you get ;p [16:27] I just host my own DNS [16:27] I'm always SSHed in, so I figure why not? My main bind server automagically updates the slaves. [16:27] It's nice :) [16:38] brycec: I actually had it configured earlier, but had only 1 IP so all port 80 traffic would go though my squid proxy then hit 8080 on apache.(Unneccessarily caching all web traffic) Now I have multiple IPs I can separate the traffic that needs to be cached. [16:39] mnathani: why not cache verything? [16:39] mnathani: apache is multiple process, squid, apache traffic server, varnish etc aall multiplex [16:42] *** dzup has joined #arpnetworks [16:43] Limited RAM for one reason. Some of the complex Wordpress / Joomla sites would bring the server to a crawl when caching everything [16:44] it should be the other way around [16:44] you should be able to reduce ram usage [16:44] by having less [16:44] oh [16:44] are you using lighttpd? [16:46] phlux: going for the boost-powered bind 10? [16:46] it even has the sqlite's [16:51] *** Webhostbudd has joined #arpnetworks [16:51] *** Ehtyar has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) [16:52] *** Ehtyar has joined #arpnetworks [16:56] *** Mexicainvexed has joined #arpnetworks [17:02] haha [17:02] negative [17:04] mercutio: not using lighttpd. I guess most of the Wordpress / Joomla content is dynamic so wouldnt really benefit from caching anyway [17:05] mnathani i suppose fastcgi witha pool of processes is what i was really thinking of [17:05] it can reduce memory usage when having multiple concurrent users [17:05] *** Mexicainvexed has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving) [17:06] ther'es still a lot of dynamic content too, css style sheets etc and apache will use lots of processes per user these days [17:06] because each tcp connection uses separate process [17:19] *** dr_jkl has quit IRC (Quit: Lost terminal) [17:41] *** alexstanford17 has joined #arpnetworks [17:42] *** alexstanford16 has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 248 seconds) [17:54] *** dj_goku has joined #arpnetworks [17:54] *** dj_goku has quit IRC (Changing host) [17:54] *** dj_goku has joined #arpnetworks [17:54] *** dj_goku_ has joined #arpnetworks [18:12] *** alexstanford17 has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [18:12] *** alexstanford17 has joined #arpnetworks [18:17] mnathani: its pretty simple to set up try_files in nginx so you at least avoid serving all static content through that awful ms-files.php [18:24] figured out quota and chroot problem... it needs /proc/sys/fs/quota/ [18:28] *** pjs has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [18:29] *** pjs has joined #arpnetworks [18:29] *** pjs is now known as Guest48799 [18:50] We don't need no stinkin' quotas! [19:00] hah [19:10] I thought WP/Joomla had their own in-build caching for dynamically-generated pages anyways? [19:10] congrats up_the_irons [19:10] tnx [20:23] *** lazard has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 244 seconds) [20:38] *** alexstanford17 has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [20:38] *** alexstanford17 has joined #arpnetworks [20:43] *** mnathani has left [21:15] *** dzup has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 276 seconds) [22:00] *** lazard has joined #arpnetworks [22:38] *** Ehtyar has quit IRC (Quit: Don't follow me) [23:04] *** HighJinx has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) [23:09] *** HighJinx has joined #arpnetworks [23:44] anyone have a recommended kvm? [23:44] kvm switch* [23:48] IPMI ;) [23:49] well [23:49] im talking about a desktop [23:49] with two machines [23:49] im sick of running windows with a linux vm i just pull up [23:49] and i have the other desktop hardware [23:50] overall they seem super overpriced and buggy [23:50] so i've been skeptical [23:53] i've been highly considering [23:53] http://www.amazon.com/IOGEAR-4-Port-Multimedia-Switch-GCS1794/dp/B001V9LQ52/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1362037662&sr=8-2&keywords=kvm+hdmi [23:55] because it seems mostly solid aside from mouse / keyboard issues which can be worked around. I use a standard 104-key keyboard anyway and a standard mouse [23:57] the problem i have is that this type of hardware is so infrequently reviewed it's hard to make judgements [23:58] and it's not so cheap that I feel like I wouldn't regret buying it
