View Full Version : A new resource for server management

I thought some of you might like to know about a (brand) new online resource for those who manage a dedicated server, including those who would like to move up to one. The name is Share and the URL is http://share.virtual-support.net/

Actually, it is about server management in general so some of it will apply to those on virtual servers as well as dedicated ones.

It's a collaborative effort by several administrators of dedicated servers, all pooling their talents and abilities for the benefit of others. I'm a part of it also and you may see me on the forums there.

Not much is up yet (the site has been operational less than a week), though the forums are operational now. Unlike sites like this one, the scope is not on how to find a host, but how to manage a dedicated server and make the most of it.

There will be programs, free and otherwise, to assist in all the common functions of a site, you may find someone on the forums to share a dedicated server with, and much more, including special pricing for dedicated servers with a very reputable company.

Note that the focus is not on getting people to get a server through us (though they can), but to help them with information on running one wherever it is located. Obviously then, co-located servers are included as well.

This is the only announcement of it I intend to make here, so if you have any other questions, or would like to volunteer your talents, please go to the site and post on the forums.
Thank you.

Hi Duster,

I've not been able to access the UBB forum at share.virtual-support.net for a while now. I get a HTTP 500 error.

Are the guys aware of the problem, or is it just me having problems?

Thanks for your notes on admin a dedicated server at your site - keep it up!

FF.

It's not you. I've had the same problems and let someone know. The site has been moved a couple of times in the last few weeks and is not fully operational yet. I'll keep after them to fix the UBB.

I'm glad you enjoy the dedicated server information and hope you find it helpful. It's an ongoing project. I have dates on the pages so anyone can easily see if any information has been added since their last visit.

Look's like a nice site...

Probably got the cgi script chmoded wrong, for the UBB Forum, I can't access it either.. Forbidden.. Could be other things, but that is my guess..
