Server Side Questions


Is there a Database Control Panel in Plesk ?

“Plesk Power Pack” is the add-on that allows you to manage various databases. MSSql Databases, MySQL Databases, PostgreSQL Databases are supported and manageable through Plesk Power Pack.

Hotlink Protection - Bandwidth Theft

Yes, it’s possible that someone can steal your bandwidth. This is called as bandwidth theft. This can be done through hotlinking, which is direct linking to other web site’s images, video, etc. To display an image or video you found on someone else’s web page so it will appear on your site. Indirectly, visitors/viewers are eating up the bandwidth of that site which is the source of information. From .htaccess Editor, you can apply Hotlink Protection for the selected directory, so that files can be accessible through your domain only.

I can see only list of files! Where is my Home Page gone?

By default web server shows list of files (folder contents). Like all linux based web servers, your ‘home page’ must be named as index.htm or index.html. Please remember that file names are case sensitive. So, you need to be careful while naming your files. Index.html will not work. It must be all lower case index.htm or index.html. If you need clarification on this, please contact our support team via live chat, they will be happy to assist you further.

Windows 2003 Standard Edition vs Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition - what to choose?
Windows Standard Edition supports up to 4 GB of RAM, which is not enough for web servers having many Application Pools. If you are offering top notch services (like a separate app pool for each site) and charging accordingly, then by all means go for Windows Enterprise Edition.

There are three main types of NAMESERVERS:

1) CACHING-ONLY name server does lookups of names, but controls no name records itself.
2) PRIMARY name server not only does lookups of names, but also owns the records for a domain.
3) SECONDARY name server does name lookups and it also backs up a primary name server by providing authoritative answers for a certain domain. Many name servers will combine Primary and Secondary functionality for different domains.

On VPS, Virtual dedicated server account, running multiple websites with Apache, Tomcat without any conflict.

Yes, with the help of your VPS account you will be able to do all these things which you have asked in your question.

With the VPS server you will have many virtual private dedicated servers at your disposal. Each VPS has its own file system so one VPS won’t be able to see any of the data of another VPS server.

You will be able to run Apache on domain X and Tomcat on domain Y, without any conflict between the two. Both will have their own port, so Tomcat can run simultaneously along with apache. With Apache running on 80 and Tomcat on 8080, both services can be rebooted individually.

Upgrading the kernel in OpenVZ

Sorry, OpenVz does not give any permission for kernel modifications or upgradations. You will be running a variant of Linux 2.6 which is the most up-to-date and steadier Linux kernel.

Advantages of vps hosting server

There are many advantages of a VPS server. To mention some over here…
1. VPS provides the ability to manage your dedicated environment directly through SSH.
2. VPS gives you the features and functionality of a dedicated server, in low cost and low maintainance.
3. Host unlimited domains, having complete control of your environment and run your own applications.
4. Add your own control panel like cPanel etc.

Assigning private nameservers to the allocated IP’s

Once you order the VPS with us, the login details regarding your IP’s will be forwarded to you at your registered email id within the next 15-20 mins after the server is configured/setup.
Thereafter you can assign your private nameservers to the allocated IP’s.

VPS or Dedicated hosting server as a Clan/ Game Server

I will not recommend you to use VPS server as a game/gaming server. If you want stability and speed while gaming then there is no other server perfect than a Dedicated server. VPS is not at all suggested as a game server, cause gaming applications take lots of resources, which VPS server will not be able to fulfil.

You get full root access on the dedicated servers. Minimum network speed each server gets is 1 gbps so it will be perfect for gaming.
