Tweaks and minor upgrades applied

Tuesday, December 9th, 2008

Hi,
We noticed that Myspace was opening up really really slow on most of the proxy sites hosted by us, others were doing fine. We have upgraded the apache and have optimized some settings, these tweaks have resulted in better and faster response while browsing Myspace and other such sites.

There has been an issue with billing however, so please make sure after you make your payment, to check and see if your Invoice gets marked as paid, and there is no outstanding +ve balance. If outstanding balance is in -ve say -3.14 that means you have those fund available to you and will be applied next month or in event you forget to pay your invoice.

On the other hand please try to use Glype Proxy script, personally have found it to have an edge over the older php proxy scripts, will try to bring out some free templates for the same in coming weeks.So keep checking and where feasible referring our Php Proxy Hosting site to others.

Thanks

Network Maintenance

Sunday, September 28th, 2008

Dear Clients:

Our upstream network provider has informed us of scheduled network maintenance that will be taking place Sunday, September 28th, 2008 with a 6AM-8AM EST window. This will involve the replacement of core switches/routers and distribution switches.

This maintenance will be service affecting, however, we expect the overall network downtime to be 15-30 minutes, during the 2-hour maintenance window…as equipment, cabling, and routes are changed. There will also be momentary periods of higher than normal latency while circuits are re-routed, BGP updated/reloaded, and cabling switched, during the 2-hour maintenance window. Proper planning, configuration, and testing has been completed in advance of this maintenance period, in order to minimize as much as possible the overall time that will be service affecting.

We thank you for your patience and understanding with this necessary maintenance, as well as for your continued business!

An Apache Crash during maintenance and upgrade

Saturday, September 6th, 2008

Hi,

We are currently investivating with help of Cpanel support team to figure out the recent apacahe crash after we optimized and upgraded it, it might take some time to get it running again depending on the root of the issue. Nothing else have changed, cpanel and your control panel should be working fine. Data is safe too, just apache/httpd is not coming back online.

Will update this if something new comes up.

Here are the few things / updates performed by the administrator.

1) Reinstalled and configured SIM.
2) Apache update to 2.2.9 with PHP 5.2.6 as fcgi, Eaccelerator, mod_security, suhosin, Zend optimizer, curl and other options.
At this time, suhosin is in simulation mode.
3) Installed and configured CSF/LFD.
4) Disabled mailman, POP, IMAP and other unused services
5) Installed WHM theme 7 Dana. You can switch back to the default theme, if you don’t like it… I just like the collapsable menu, lol.
6) Ran a search for php shell scripts : the good news is that it returned nothing
7) Installed vnstat and added a web interface (WHM >> Server Status)
8) Updated logwatch
9) Optimized sysctl.conf
10) Hardened host.conf
11) Fixed logrotate bug
12) Secure /dev/shm
13) Added some useful scripts from PWS to WHM >> Server Status
14) Configured Background Process Killer
15) PHP.ini tweakings
16) Disabled anonymous FTP

Possibly Moving to new Datacenter - Server Downtime issues

Monday, July 28th, 2008

Hello,

As you guys have noticed today server is again down, this time same reason of nullrouting the ip, but this time burst.net acted in an unprofessional manner not notifying us or our provider volumedrive that they had done that, resulting in almost entire day now of downtime. We are working to get this issue resolved, and hoping to move to new location within a week’s time, either will stick with current provider (they are opening new facility in NY) or just get a new provider itself, so we do not have to worry about Burst.net and its unprofessionalism.

Sorry for the issue, but sorries don’t really cut it all the time, if only i had any control over how Burst.net should be run this would not be happening at all. Still awaiting reasons as to why null routing took place in the first place.

Change is inevitable ! Unless they can reimburse us or can provide a professional explanation !!

Server NullRouted

Tuesday, July 15th, 2008

Hiya,

Yesterday we got an email from abuse department saying phishing (or as i say fishing)  activities were taking place from one the domain hosted. Replied within few minutes of getting the email, providing the datacenter with culprits ip, and asked for steps to take to resolve the issue. And thanks to no reply for over close to 18 hrs, cognent null routed our server ip. Hence you might not be able to access your sites right now. Had only our provider acted swiftly to an abuse report this could have been prevented.

We are looking to get new ip assigned to server asap, and making sure the original ip is cleared given back to the server. New ip is currently assigned to ns2.proxyorama.info , so your sites should work normally after its assigned.

Note: These are the consequences/results/conditions beyond our control as we cannot monitor how your proxy sites get used.

We will be back shortly (hoping it wont take ages to assign new ip to the server)

Htaccess File for Blocking unwanted Bandwidth Leechers on Proxy Sites

Saturday, July 12th, 2008

Tired of running a proxy site with visitors from asia, china and countries that leech on your bandwidth and in return produce no revenues from same proxy websites. Well you can deny ips from those users which keep coming back without producing any clicks or revenues from your google ads or other ads, by using .htaccess file provided below. The file is used on one of my proxy site : enjoylearning as it was a heavy hitter with no to very low revenues, all those vistors with no returns only end up killing your bandwidth and getting suspended.

Feel free to download and place it in your public_html folder, where your proxy main index file is located. Ips listed there are in and around from ASIAN continent.

Unzip and upload the .htaccess file. DOWNLOAD FILE :

  Htaccess (20 bytes, 114 hits)

Email Services Disabled on Server

Thursday, May 22nd, 2008

Hello everyone,

To avoid any more spam emails going out of server and getting ip blocked by spamcop and blacklisted, we have disabled email services like exim, pop3 , smtp , and also via php disabled the mail() functions.

So if you have any contact forms or any domain email on the account please do not use them or give them out, as they will not work. Sorry that this has to be done, but we you are on a proxy host and should not require emails on a proxy sites. For abuse emails put your email from other domain or one of your other yahoo or other free services email in the footers of your sites if you wish. But we will not be offerring or entertaining sites that require email services for their proxies.

Thanks

Some issues - Some updates

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

Hiyall,

Seems like server is acting really weird we think it might be HDD data corruption or kernel issues, you might not be able to login to you Direct Admin panel, but your sites should be working. We will update on this as to what or where the issues are, looks like we might be needed an OS reload. If that be the case we will probably perform the same if needed urgently else will wait till weekend so your sites have minimum downtimes.

We might not even need anything other than just recompile of kernel but we will update you as and when things develop.

FAQ :

Should i panic ?

R. Nope its not the end of the world ! :)

Cheers
