I'm looking for a vps with 32-64mb guaranteed ram (32 prefered, I don't think that I need more), 1pv4 & 1 ipv6, at least 10gb of hd (in raid will be prefered), 500+gb bw and a nice uptime.
The use of this VPS will be a debian repository, a backup server and an irc bouncer (on ipv6).
I don't consider BuyVM because I prefer a cheaper solution OR a solution with more bw.
Any idea of who can sell that?

You want a cheaper solution than BuyVM's $15/year? How much cheaper do you want to go ??? I doubt you will find many cheaper offers that also work.

0 • Disagree Agree Thanks@rds100: I'm searching a machine with a quarter (or half, at most) of that ram and less hd, I'm not asking a discount. Also I state that a same price with my required ram and more bw is acceptable.

0 • Disagree Agree ThanksSo, why to get less RAM at the same price? Just a whim I guess...

0 • Disagree Agree Thanks@yomero: I don't need 128mb of ram; as I said I need to run a static file webserver (nginx), a bouncer and dropbear (fail2ban also, maybe). And this won't even reach 20mb. I prefer a cheaper price or more bw rather than 96mb of useless (for my needs) ram.

0 • Disagree Agree ThanksI don't think you'll get cheaper than $15 per year. https://securedragon.net/openvz.php is also a nice cheap 'un. Exactly 96mb of dedicated ram for $19.90 per year.
There might be discounts on LEB.

0 • Disagree Agree ThanksYour best option is to contact a provider that does a cheap yearly option and ask them to change the specs a little bit because lots of provider will be happy to do so if they do not lose out. Lots of providers also like to give away more bandwidth and less ram. Because they generally have more bandwidth

0 • Disagree Agree Thanks1) fail2ban requires python which will kill your 32MB VPS dreams. 2) IPV4 addresses are scarce, thus expensive. 3) 500GB BW VPS & high availability for < $1.25 mo?
Goodluck.

Private + Shared = RAM used Program
2.5 MiB + 549.5 KiB = 3.0 MiB fail2ban-server

0 • Disagree Agree ThanksHmm ... I've never seen fail2ban+python that low, but apparently I stand corrected. I haven't run fail2ban since around '05-'06, so maybe it's better now.

0 • Disagree Agree Thanks@Xeoncross: With the iptables anti-bruteforce script I got some problem (on xen) because it will track each connection (even the www one) and the iptables hash table got saturated under (very) high load (it happens during a siege test). Isn't a problem on a small website but I prefer to avoid.
@rajprakash: Maybe it's because I use python-minimal on debian, dunno.

0 • Disagree Agree Thanks@tommy: I checked hostigation and noticed it's Backup30. But they told me that I can't do anything that's not a backup, with it. Otherwise was surely a perfect package.
@trelawney: Yeah, maybe. :)

0 • Disagree Agree ThanksJust ask a couple VPS' providers sales representatives on their websites. They should be able to work out an offer for you.

0 • Disagree Agree ThanksKeep your eye on http://lowendstock.com for cheap VPS deals.
The Hostigation Backup VPS is definitely not made for any type of public access - bandwidth is just 3mbs. I've squeezed mySQL, PHP and munin onto mine. It backs up my other VPSes, posts a few munin charts, and lets me remotely query various logs when I need more info.

0 • Disagree Agree ThanksThe big killer for us is actually the IRC bouncer and IPv6 (we're still waiting for HE to be brought into our data center because right now our only provider that supports it is Level3 so there is no redundancy).
If it weren't for those 2 things we'd be happy to give you a 64MB account for $1/month but we've had a lot of bad experience with IRC on our network and our data center does not allow it. I'm sure other providers would be able to go that cheap or cheaper (we don't have our own ASN so we pay higher prices for IPs).

0 • Disagree Agree Thanks@KuJoe: Well, with my actual ipv6 irc bouncer (on BuyVM) I haven't got any problem. However I can understand your point of view.

0 • Disagree Agree ThanksI personally am very new to IRC but so far every bad thing that has happened to us has been IRC related. It sucks because I've been told that our 96MB plans would be perfect for IRC bouncers and I wanted to setup a node specifically for that reason.

0 • Disagree Agree ThanksIt's actually very funny because Steve81's first post looks very similar to a post I made prior to starting Server Dragon here. It's actually one of the reasons I decided to offer our 96MB plans (and because people didn't like the idea of 64MB plans).

0 • Disagree Agree ThanksNot 100% true, the VPS is not on the backup node, the backup node is very limited hardware wise which is why I get sort of anal about it. I migrated Steve81's VPS to one of the actual VPS nodes.

But that package is in LA and SC, 128mb/256mb burst, 10gb disk, 500gb traffic, 1 ea IPv4/Ipv6 for $20/yr, currently plans are allocated on the new e3-1230 nodes (3.2GHz).
