    Looking for dirt cheap vps

    I'm looking for a Dirt cheap vps that allows IRC on it.

    I don't care about the specs as long as it can host a BNC or two.

    The only think i care about is it has to be in Europe.

    Looking for something under 5$ and allows unlimited Bandwidth as for the speed of the connection, it doesn't have to be fast 10mbit would be fine.

    I might ask my DC if they do it.

    I wish i could find a host for like 1$ a month or under 15/yr I know of one host that does it with

    15GB Disk Space
    1TB Bandwidth
    1 Core CPU
    128MB RAM
    256MB Burst RAM
    Instant Setup
    1 Free IP Address (es)

    With them specs, but i don't have enough money on my card to buy that one or i would
    If anyone has a VPS with them specs and willing to do it for that cheap let me know i'd be willing to settle with 1tb a month and would settle if with a US provider as well.

    I'm not sure if this inquiry is legit or not at this point. Even with some of the cheapest Cogent bandwidth in the world at $1 per Mb. That's still like $3~ worth of bandwidth. So when you factor in power, hardware, software, support, other licensing and business related costs. You're looking around at least $10-15/mo; not year.

    I don't think you'll ever find the deal you want from a LEGIT provider.

    I see deals on http://www.lowendbox.com/ all the time for 15/yr. The problem is they sell so fast and i never have time to jump on them.

    How many of those companies end up on the "out of business" list? Or end up going "oh my" and raising their prices to compensate. Thus losing their client base and going out of business anyway.

    Why you need 1TB for just an "irc" ? Even with 100GB you can run 2 bnc/psybnc, it is more than enough.

    I was thinking about maybe setting up a VPN on it as well. If all else fails i'd settle on like 100gb as well.

    There are some good low-end VPS providers that offer very cheap VPSes for $15-25/year and several have been in business for years. See the site in my sig for a list of the good ones.

    But yes, it is a high casualty market. For every good provider there are 10 bad ones.

    You can get a good VPS for cheap if you're careful. Of course, don't expect 1-hour turnaround on tickets, handholding, etc.

    So?
    Overselling is not always a bad thing.

    I see lots of $15/yr VPS deals on lowendbox.com, however, rarely do you see those deals in Europe. So if your location in Europe is a must, you probably need to bump up your budget a little.

    I found a very nice little VPS/VDS in Germany for pretty much free with these specs.

    CPU: 500 MHz
    RAM: 128 Mb
    HDD: 2 Gb
    Monthly bandwidth: 100 Gb
    Native IPv6 IP(s) included: 5
    Operating System: FreeBSD 8.2 amd64
    Monthly price: 0.95$ (got it cheaper thanks to a deal so paying 2$ every 3 months)
    Service location: Germany

    Pretty much perfect for a cheap little BNC, but it's ipv6 only. Who cares though!

    Technically this is no VPS - It is a FreeBSD Jail which is more like a "shell account".

    It's a pretty good deal though right? I just need to learn how to install ZNC on FreeBSD now as i have no clue how to use it and it doesn't seem to wanna create a home folder for me when i create a user. I"m use to ubuntu, it'll be nice to play around with it though and try to learn more about FreeBSD.

    I would recommend taking a look at LowEndBox. They have tonnes of offers from budget VPS providers. Just make sure you choose wisely because some are fairly new.
