Hello,
It appeals that the abuse department has nulled your IP due to Abuse Case #
5114.
Here are the details of the abuse case:
Hello,
96.31.91.164 has been shceduled to be terminated from the network as it is a
spam source which has caused RBL blacklisting of Hivelocity IP addresses. At
this time the servers switch port has been shut off to prevent further damage to
our IP's reputations.
IP Allocation: 96.31.91.164 through 96.31.91.169
NOTE: You took possession of this server Feb/22/2011
*******************************************************
1) http://cbl.abuseat.org/lookup.cgi?ip=96.31.91.164
IP Address 96.31.91.164 is listed in the CBL. It appears to be infected with a
spam sending trojan or proxy.
It was last detected at 2012-02-27 14:00 GMT (+/- 30 minutes), approximately 1
days ago.
This IP address is HELO'ing as "localhost.localdomain" which violates
the relevant standards (specifically: RFC5321).

NOTE: DO NOT REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE FOR ASSISTANCE. I am awaiting your
explanation as to why this keeps happening on your self managed server in Ticket
#155424 - Emails get returning. The server is scheduled for termination in full
but I may reconsider based on your explanation when you repsond to the said
ticket. As of now the servers port has been shutdown. The trouble ticket system

Hello,
As I just advised in ticket 155424, my concern is that this server continues to
be a spam source even after you reloaded the server. This leads me to believe
you have done nothing to mitigate the issue with your accounts and have simply
migrated all content to the newly reloaded server.
Thank you!

Hello,
We will not turn on a spam source and allow any further time for resolution.
Since you failed to resolve the hacking issue for over 2 months and spam was
still being sent from this server as recent as yesterday which caused further
RBL listing the server has been terminated from the network.

I can create the invoice for you to make payment on it, and you will need to

look like you have 2 drives in the system, so we would need to which one you
would like to purchase of if you need to purchase both Drives.

What is the FTP hostname or IP of your new server?
What is the FTP username?

Hello,
I will not create anything on your new server and did not ask for its root
login information. I asked you for very specific information twice now and also
instructed you to contact billing to pay the $100 before we proceed. At this
time I think it is best if you simply purchase the harddrive and have shipped to
you as you could have already had it in your possession versus all this going
back and forth.

I'm not in a possion to buy Hard Drive because it will take long to to reach our
office. And also there is have a extra risk because can damage data while in
shipping. Best way is to transfer all backup data to my new server location. As
I mention before I already created a backup location in my hard drive . so
please please transfer all data to that location. Please make a invoice that
purpose only.

the end of the week on 3/9/11. Let us know how you would like to proceed else we

Hello,
We tried to work with you and get the data copied over to a server not in our
DC, but you never replied with any of the asked for information. Even after
asking numerous times, you did not want to give us the info we needed to FTP the
data to your new server.
You can purchase the drive and have it shipped to you. We do not want to keep
your data. At this point since you didn't reply before 5:00 PM on Friday, I can
guarantee that the hard drive is still available. If so, do you want it shipped
to you so you can recover your data? The price of the drive and the price of the
admin work you wanted to pay for are the same. The only extra is in getting it
shipped to you. That could've been avoided if you had simply done as we asked
earlier, but at this point we will not be putting your server online, nor will
we be doing any admin work for you. If you'd like the drive, you can have it
for the same price, $100, as the admin work would have been.

Hello,
Thanks for your prompt action,
Due to the current crisis in our company because of server termination, we are
not in a position to pay even $100.
Further more, We need our backups to be handed over to our 500 customer,
therefor we are in a big trouble. Some of the clients were informed us that
they will go to the court regarding this issue. Thus, Please emphasis and try to
understand our situation to take an better action to give our backup reasonable
way. So, please be good enough to put our server online 2 days time (dates will
be informed you and we will do the transferring works) or transfer the whole
backups to our new server backup folder. (Free of charge)
If you agree for this i will give the server credentials and folder name to
transfer.
if you couldn't follow the above plans, there is no 2 thinking times. we which
to charge back the money we spent to our server.. And we will find a another
solution to get the backups.
looking forward to hearing from you a good news..................

take a backup.Other wise HIVELOCITY VENTURES will go down day by day. As a
result you people will loose jobs. Please advise your management team.

Based on what I see from the OP and your own thread, they provided you with several months notice/attempts to work with you.
Regarding the "bad experience" with Hivelocity that you posted, it seems that they went above and beyond what other DC's would've done to get you your data...<sarcasm>yep, a real bad experience there</sarcasm>

The OP posted most of our correspondence so I am not sure what there is left for me to add. The customer hosted a known ROKSO spammer. We sent him an abuse complaint with instruction to remove the ROKSO spammer from the network immediately or we would terminate the server. 2 days later the ROKSO spammer was still not removed from the server and network, the same ip was once again sending spam, instructions were not followed and we terminated the server. We have offered numerous times to sell the customer his drives at cost and he could have them shipped next day air.
It is an unfortunate situation for everyone involved except the spammer. Nothing good happens when you sign up ROKSO spammers.Steve Eschweiler - Hivelocity.net - Since 2002

Hello Steve, I'm the unlucky, unfortunate owner of VPS 199.119.100.145 inside Chris' 199.119.100.142 ... is there any way to salvage my clients' files? If I can get the tarballs (you can just change the root password from the console).
I haven't got any refund either.

<QUOT> Based on what I see from the OP and your own thread, they provided you with several months notice/attempts to work with you.
Regarding the "bad experience" with Hivelocity that you posted, it seems that they went above and beyond what other DC's would've done to get you your data...<sarcasm>yep, a real bad experience there</sarcasm>
</Quot>
Yes they inform me . But they did not gave me time at least 4-5 days to investigate my issue.

If it takes you 4-5 days to resolve an issue like that, you are going to have this problem with most hosts. It should take 24 hours at most and if it took 24 hours I would probably be angry at my administration team that I'd be paying for, for taking that long. I think your review has done you more harm than good. 4-5 days is putting numerous other clients that are on the same network at risk. Let me know to never use a provider you sign up for.

Good luck finding a host that will give you that much of a time frame. 24 hours seems to be the max that I normally see, and from what I see in Hivelocity's Legal documents, several areas indicate that your service can be terminated immediately in these cases (With no refund).

I quickly scanned the AUP and found two items that just jumped out at me regarding this post...and this is without even reading through the legal terms in the ToS or etc...
4-5 days...sorry don't think so. You should review the AUP/TOS/Master Agreement or etc before picking your next host and adhere to their rules.

It is indeed frustrating, and a very hard situation to be coming at.

I understand how you feel op, but if you had a sysadmin he should be able to find the spammer and blocked it. either your sysadmin us not qualified enough or he dosent even know what he is a doing.
why would you even un-suspend the VPS? like other said you could had just mouted the files and look into it.
for me i would suspend the vps and terminate it, such spammers will not be allowed in my server

My take-away from this thread is that Hivelocity sounds like a stand-up company.
If you sign up a ROKSO spammer and don't immediately pull the plug on them when notified of such you have no one to blame but yourself.
If it takes you "4-5 days" to deal with a spamming customer? Your "admin" should probably find a new line of work.
