Hi everyone,
Please can you recommend a domain registrar that won't treat me like poo and that won't force me to use their name servers so I can host my own DNS? Reasonable pricing and someone that doesn't throw up needless obstacles to leaving would be a plus.
Thanks,
Paul.

Hi all.
Annoyingly, my current provider's financial backers have decided that
they're not going to continue investing in it and it is currently
scheduled to close at the end of the month. So I am looking for an
alternative.
* Needs to work for Linux systems and file systems.
* I'd prefer certainty over annual cost to Amazon's 'so much per Gb, so
much per etc' model.
* It needs to be reasonably priced for about 1Tb of data.
* It'd be lovely if it worked with rsync or csync.
* It needs to be around this time next year, and the year after that etc.
Any recommendations?
Ian
Hey there list,
I'd be grateful if someone could recommend please a front-end for iptables?
Arno's iptables seems well-regarded.
I've set up some basic iptables rules on my VPS that allow/block various
ports etc but want to be able to use iptable's state module too and would
like to use a script that's been proved through use.
Thanks in advance for any help/ideas.

Hi,
At the moment there sees to be heavy packet loss to one of our
secondary name servers, b.authns.bitfolk.com, and those of you with
domains hosted by us will have received some alerts because of that.
I've reported it to the hosting company involved and once it is
resolved you'll receive RECOVERY alert.
Cheers,
Andy

I'm attempting to upgrade my VPS from Etch to Lenny and then onto Squeeze.
For some reason it is failing at the first step. What is happening is shown below. What is the solution?
Thanks
Neil

Hello,
If you always transfer less than the inclusive data transfer quota
per month (currently 200GB), then the rest of this email will most
likely not be of interest to you. That should have got rid of
approximately 88% of you.
Still if you do less than 500GB/month it's probably not of interest.
Around 1% of you left now.
Having recently taken on a fairly high-bandwidth customer (by VPS
standards anyway), I had to come up with some pricing for 95th
percentile bandwidth billing.
Should anyone else be interested, the details are here:
https://tools.bitfolk.com/wiki/Bandwidth
If you are curious as to what your 95th percentile measurements
were, please send a support ticket and I'll tell you.
If you are curious as to what your future 95th percentile
measurements might be, please send a support ticket and I'll set up
a Cacti graph for you with a 95th percentile line on it so you can
compare.
If you have any questions not answered by the wiki page, please do
ask, either on- or off-list.
Cheers,
Andy
