(Quote) Oh, right, all OS comes with oracle-cloud-agent as it makes it easier to manage the OS from their OCI console.

(Quote) Are you sure? You called blackmail, and then suddenly won the next day... suspicious :lol:

For UK, it is day 4 only now. Time I posted this is 12:03 am for GMT. So please post your entries for day 4 everyone! Wonder who won for day #3...

(Quote) Ya, i forgot that you need to add 20 to 50% markup on any estimated price if you plan to sell it in Singapore... (Quote) They do not have prices for business grade internet, so I'm quoting price from home/personal grade connection. In SG, S…

(Quote) No problem. Wishing you the best for day 3 :) PS. I am still not entering the contest. Just ignore all posts by me. Best regards to the winners :)

(Quote) I used wireguard and OpenVPN previously. Speeds were definitely better but I had issues with the VPN crashing after I used it for a week or two and although reboot helped initially, after a while, even rebooting did not get it to work. I had…

(Quote) I have been using tailscale to connect to my server's local networks and although the speeds are poor (10~100 Mbps compared to 1Gbps) it is good enough for small file transfers and SSH connections.

(Quote) Heck, even gmail has it. So does a lot of other "free" SMTP relays. Too many to count and their IPs ARE clean, cause it is their business to keep the IPs clean...
-
(Quote) Use a reliable third party SMTP relay that will ensure your emails gets delivered, unless you are sure the server's IP is clean and is not blocked on any blocklists.

(Quote) That's just almost perfectly as advertised! Nice!

(Quote) Now that is a impressive peering and download speed, even for global!

(Quote) UK is GMT +0 so SG time 1am day 2 is their 6pm day 1... They are BEHIND your india time. So minus 5.30 hours to get their time...

(Quote) Oh! I thought you mean the winner was announced on day #2! LOL! I did not realize that you meant that the winning post was posted on day #2 itself. It was posted at 1+ AM for me, so it could be 10pm or 11pm for people in different timezones…

(Quote) Day #1 winner counted at the end of the day, took 1/2 a day to confirm, so it is normal to announce day #1 winner the next day. Btw, still not entering the contest, just commenting. So just ignore me here :)

(Quote) LOL! Did not think of that, but it is a good way to find reliable services!

(Quote) I'm on firefox and it shows just fine for me... weird...
-
(Quote) All are 4Gbps or lower for down, while 2Gbps or lower for up. For servers, up is more important then down, and as most of the speeds are bellow 1Gbps, I wont really call it a "10Gbit killer deal"...

How do you define the "stock" of a hosting service? Do you get a new dedicated server or do you just decide, "we can put another 100 people on this server" and go update "stock"?
-
(Quote) Blocked SMTP is a reason for some people to not buy the servers, while for others, it is a good deal as the prices are cheaper while they do not need SMTP. For me, I never liked to use my server's IP to send emails as I wont know for sure th…

(Quote) Oh, did he transfer it to US region already? Too bad. Good luck with your next hunt.
-
Great offers, but the price seems a bit high specially considering the GBP to USD conversion rates, then again, I dunno about the price of VPS hosting in UK. Not entering the freebie contest, just wanted to share my thoughts.

(Quote) @FrankZ was offering to transfer a Tokyo node just yesterday...
-
(Quote) That is a very good price. Maybe you want to open a new thread at LES/LET with it in case someone is interested in it?
-
(Quote) No, it'll be available soon. Currently Not_Oles is finalizing the terms and conditions over at this thread: https://lowendspirit.com/discussion/comment/139928/#Comment_139928 Feel free to go through the latest version linked above and prov…

(Quote) It doesn't matter to me how long the cert is valid for as I always setup auto renewal using cron through certbot :)

(Quote) The server minimal version of ubuntu does not come with any preinstalled snaps that i know of, so it is almost like debian. Honestly I cannot remember why I did not use debian, but I do remember something was different about debian and I cou…

(Quote) Distrobox runs a docker container with the said distro and transfers your terminal to inside the container on command. It is a good way to test out various linux features.

(Quote) Swap out the Oracle Linux OS for Ubuntu 20.04 if possible. It runs better on system with small amount of RAMs. Ubuntu 22.04 also has a minimum RAM of 1 GB, but I did manage to run it along with nginx webserver on 512 MB of ram.
