What makes Linode so great?

AWS

>>43089531
VPSDime through their LEB prmotion.

1TB traffic, 30GB storage, 100up/down, using to run OpenVPN. It's around $35/yr

Can I use a VPS as a VPN?

>>43089813
Some providers will let you do this. You just need to ask.

I have one with BlueVM.

I also have a colocated server with FDCServers, though that's going to get kicked to the curb as soon as I'm done porting my website from .net to Go.

>>43089531
the ones on my own server

DigitalOcean.
Got a 10$ discount code from some site, put in my 5$ from paypal and now I have 3 VPS months for 5$. Sweeet.

>>43089531
http://www.netcup.de/vserver/

Best prices I've found so far.

- Great control panel
- Lots of OS images to choose from (though, I use my own)
- No bandwidth limit
- Actual KVM server with console

This. They're basically a more stable BuyVM. Also they actually have an SLA.

>>43089774
>Your server will be suspended automatically to avoid an unexpected overage charge. You may contact us to purchase additional bandwidth for $7 per TeraByte or wait until the next billing cycle to be unsuspended.

That's so douchy...

>>43090223
Do you actually get shell access?

>>43090318
What? Of course.

>>43090363
Sweet, I've been meaning to shut off some of my servers here in my home. The reason I ask is because some of those webhosting sites confuse giving customers their own VPS that's only for webhosting, and others allow full shell access. Thanks, Anon!

>>43089531
PrivateVPN

>>43089774
>TOR, Mining, IRC, Teamspeak, Starbound, Runescape, Minecraft and Chobots are not allowed.

Holy shit, fuck them.

Cloudshards have really cheap plans if you just want to try VPSs out. The specs are quite limited, but more than enough for most uses.

>>43090550
Yeah that's fucking awful

>>43090550
Why IRC?

>>43090602
I don't know, because "h4x0r network"?

>>43090244
That's nice. Any limitations?

>>43090602
IRC is banned due to its association with DDOSes (usually perpetrated against the server), and they just don't feel like dealing with it.

>>43090632
Not that I know of.

I've been using my 15 euro one as a webserver, Minecraft server, IRC client/server, openVPN, FAI server, DynDNS, torrenting and other stuff

Digitalocean

what do you use vps for?

>>43090710
see >>43090681

>>43090681
Torrenting is allowed? Cool. So you have that root server L option?

CVPS (Chicago VPS)
ransomIT
rack.sx
virtualclub
greenvaluehosting

Any decent VPS hosts that accept anonymous payment?

>>43090710
IRC client, git repository, torrent seeder, FTP, mail server and some server/client programming tests

>>43090747
PrivateVPN accepts BitCoins. I have used them for a while now

I use Rijx.
Pic related, I use the 10 USD/year plan.
I just use it for VPN and startpage, for which it's perfect.

>>43090775
That's hardly a benchmark, just a speed test to a bunch of locations.

DigitalOcean

As long as it's not for copyright infringing material, but I don't think they'll check.

>>43090896
Wow that's even cheaper than my Ramnode. Should switch.

Digital Ocean.

I could probably do better pricewise, seeing as the only things I host are a barely populated IRC server, a few small personal websites, an IRC/Twitter bot, and a personal VPN for when I'm out in public, but they've been pretty reliable for $5 bucks a month.

Really would like to save where I can, but I don't even know where to look for a better deal.

>>43094497
I use Digital Ocean too.
$10 plan

I run a Wordpress site, FTP server, and Mumble server from it. So far it works great.

I also like that they don't put limits on cpu usage, like some other VPS providers do.

>>43089531
Op, why are you showing a picture of the HP MediaSmart Server which runs Windows Home Server, when talking about VPS?

>>43094949
First image result for "VPS" on Google

Hey muh neckbeards, i want my freedom on servers what provider doesn't have absurd TOS and allow teamspeak/mumble server?

What the fuck is VPS anyways? Is that like teh cloud but for muh website? I'm getting too old for all this modern stuff

Nice try MPAA, RIAA, FBI, CIA and NSA.

>>43095400
Digital Ocean is pretty much okay with anything that doesn't break the law.

>>43094497
Rijx, bro.
I've yet to find any place cheaper than that AND they give 2 IPs, which is pretty neat.

>>43089774
>LEB prmotion

I bought a VPS at weloveservers.com through LEB

1tb traffic, 2GB RAM, 60GB storage, 1gbit up/down, around the same price per year

>>43095417
Virtual Private Server.
The company will provision a little chunk on their dedicated servers for you.

>>43095417

You know how you can run virtual systems on your PC these days? Like, a window that contains a Linux install, even though you're on a Windows system. That's virtualisation.

A VPS is a server equivalent. Someone buys an expensive server then dishes our smaller less powerful accounts on that server (except each account is a self contain system in itself).

>>43095417
The cloud is a horrible term that should die, but pretty much. It's basically just a virtualized OS, usually Linux, that lets you run whatever on it, be it a website, IRC server, whatever the fuck can run on a normal OS provided the VPS has the right specs.

>>43095417
Virtual Private Server. Like a VirtualBox or VMWare containr. All the advantages of a physical dedicated server, except for lower performance and much lower price (and obviously lack of control over hardware). Also can dynamically scale as needed, unlike a physical dedicated sever. You get full root access and can choose what OS to run, unlike shared hosting.

Some advertise a VPS as "cloud", such as DigitalOcean.

>>43095471
>>43095482
>>43095484
Ah I see. Thanks for the nice explanation. Have a nice day.

>>43095511
>You get full root access and can choose what OS to run, unlike shared hosting.
Actually most of VPS hosters are using OpenVZ, and it's shred kernel limits OS selection to selected GNU/Linux distros.
XEN and KVM doesn't have this problem, but these cost usually more compared to OpenVZ VPS.

The best thing you could do would be to kill yourself but make it look like an accident. Trust me, she has already mourned the death of her son. At this point you are just a burden.

>>43095615
their services is pretty meh and I suspect they host more VMs per server such as if everyone uses 100% it gets slow
however it werks 99% of the time and popping a few 0.99€ to experiment with system administration is great

Why do you even care about these when you have bigger problems. Fix your life nigger. You can afford a $5 a month VPS with a shitty cashier job. You can kiss a woman if you get and shape, work on not being socially awkward, and learn to do you own laundry and fix you own food. You can masturbate to animals and watch anime in your free time.

Shit, I know this is probably a ruse, but holy fuck, I know there's people like this out here reading this. Get your acts together niggas, you can do it.

As long as you don't cause trouble, anything is fine.

>>43095802
Quite a few don't, and some only prohibit servers while allowing clients and shit. I know Digital Ocean has no restrictions on IRC whatsoever as long as you're not getting DDOS'd or running a botnet. There was another host I can't remember the name of that allowed IRC software, but refused to provide support for it.
