Rackshack - your opinion please
I'm thinkin about gettin a box there for just galleries. Serving only gif, jpg and html files. No scripts.
I'm interested in your experiences with them regarding time to fix failed hardware....time for a reboot, etc. The only support I forsee needing is for this - the hardware. Also, the amount of time the pipe has been down will be useful. Thanks |

I got a couple. If you know what you are doing with Linux it is just fine. If not you may be in trouble.
I have never requested a reboot...and my connection has not been down in 3 months. |

Seem fine so far. They're not the most, erm... helpful in the world should you need advice or software help. However once I unleashed a sysadmin on the boxes it hasn't been needed.
In fact if you prefer to just be left alone with a box and not have somebody looking over your shoulder every 5 minutes they're really very good. I'll give the same advice I do with billing companies. Get at least two different options. Eggs in one basket kind of thing. |

Great. I've seen some posts where they are the absolute worst hosts ever...hardware issues....etc. My needs are simple and it seems their plan would work for that kind of thing.
Still...anyone else? |

Last week my rackshack box was hacked. Rackshacks response was to take it off the network without notification. Then they gave me no other option but to do a full restore on the box.
They did not allow me any further access to the box once the hack was detected so I lost emails and datafiles. Cheap as chips though, Just dont put anything important on it. |

Yeah I think the reason why you hear about problems is that they are
1. cheap 2. rely on you to admin your boxes I had heard the backup thing was important to do there.. but I think that is also cause people are running high volume shit on there so you probably have a lot more stress on the hardware. Also, check your ram when you order the server.. mine was 256 mb short ![]()

Juge - I read the first post when it came out, but that 2nd post was very helpful. Seems that 1/2 the people are perfectly satisfied..the rest...well..perfectly disgruntled.
Thanks for your help everyone HQ |
