hi.. not trying to jack your thread... i just want to ask.. (I did try to google)

what other TLDS does the us own?

.com

and what else?

When Verisign bought out Network Solutions, they became in-charge of the .com/.net/.org gTLDs which already had an agree with ICANN, overseen by the US Dept. of Commerce.  Verisign still runs the wholesale business of the previously stated gTLDs as well as several other TLDs (.cc/.edu/.gov/.jobs/.name/.tv... and probably some I am forgetting).  The confusion between .com/.net and .org is that .org was split-off from Verisign as it was meant to be used by non-profit organizations.  This never became an official requirement and while .org domans are issued by the registrar PIR, PIR is fully-owned by Verisign.  What's actually more disturbing is that the 13 root nameservers are controlled by ICANN, which is why people say the US Govt owns the Internet (of course there a many more than 13 server locations and they are not all within US borders anymore, there are a few hundred in fact, but they are duplicates nodes of those original 13).  Due to local contacts I actually spent some days during the summer of 2006 at the root nameserver hosted at UMD College Park (aka Root D).  Pretty sloppy wiring job there and a friend who used to be responsible for certain network operations at AMS-IX (Amsterdam Internet Exchange), which houses several redundant root nameservers, said it was a mess on his end too.

Iceland's ccTLD (.is) is a pretty safe bet, as the .is registrar (ISNIC) basically refuses to entertain anything but a court order from an Icelandic court (they have stated numerous times that when it comes to legality/policing domains, this is the responsibility of the owner of the domain, not the ISNIC).  I believe The Pirate Bay still owns/operate its .is domain (they received orders from a Swedish court to disable the domain but like I said earlier, they won't take orders from any nation's court outside of their own) but they also use .sx, which is a ccTLD for the small Caribbean Island of Sint Maarten (I don't about the registrar that runs it, but if The Pirate Bay is keeping it on stand-by, it must have a good reputation for ignoring international law).

thepiratebay moved to the sint maarten because some guy * i forgot who he was but my guess was he was important* tried to seize all of thepiratebay domains. so out of security pirate bay moved to sint maarten.  I actually looked into getting a .sx domain the other day that country is sketch haha

looks to be down

Service is now back online

[elvisrene]

looks good might need this service in the future so far mine sucks

that's the exact reason we started this project. me and my partner went through 5 web hosts all failing to provide decent hosting, to much downtime, no support, etc. We decided to make our own and we've been working on learning, developing, marketing our own hosting service since. We just want to provide quality hosting.



We also decided to permanently slash prices 50% across the board. the 25% off coupon is still valid

[igba]

if I were u I'd limit the number of clients you bring on (like Motionite). I'm sure people wouldn't mind paying double the price for double the quality. I've seen too many of these come and go.

We've had that in mind. Reason we had to go offline all of a sudden is to make sure that we would be able to provide the best quality we can. We currently have our system setup and organized to automatically route new clients to the servers with the most space. We also limit how many clients per server to provide the maximum efficiency. Unlike other host services that try and overfill their servers we are basing our service on quality. We actually under fill our servers compared to other hosts.

On another note i do like your suggestion/ input on this. it helps us make a better decisions

Do you have any plans in the future to sell VPS'? I'd be quite interested in an anonymous VPS

I'm not seeing any way to install PHPMyAdmin or a way to manage SQL databases. Actually, when I go to the applications section I'm not seeing any way to install web apps at all. Nothing comes up in search.

Any way to use an external SQL management program?

mysql is installed by default. login the plesk panel and click on the "website & domains" tab then you will see an icon called databases. click that.  you will see databases and you can add a new one or see existing ones. after you add one you want click the name of that database. you will see a icon called webadmin. click that and it will open phpmyadmin and done   you can access any information needed in mysql.

Also please refrain from asking for help in this thread. Their is a support ticket option on the main site that is always available 24/7 for yo to use. Also i can assist you in any way using pm's on bitcointalk. We prefer you use our support ticket feature but i personally dont mind going through bitcointalk pm's

[johnnyfla123]

you can set phpmyadmin for external connections and external databases. You might have to look up a guide on google but it is totally possible. I currently have it working with a website i host through our hosting services.

For the prices given of your hosting plans im concerned of how many people you put onto one server...?

We limit it based on bandwidth being used and resources. We don't use more than 50% of the disk per server or if we each 60 unique accounts whichever comes first on average. we currently operate 2 servers our first one isnt at capacity yet and the other 1 is at standby for new clients.
