Hmmm... I suggest posting such offers anonymously. just in case.
"A thunderbolt strikes and sinister voice booms: 'You have been told, mortal, to use that most holy server solely for private purposes!'"
Actually, that is an old one, I think the old contract applies, like Oles said, the 2011/2012 series can be resold.
As I said, just in case. Which gives me another thought, are there low-end trusted providers of storage servers (i.e. little RAM/weaker CPU, but large disk(s))...
I know no one can beat prices of, say, Glacier storage at AWS, but it would be interesting to see as near offers as possible. I will post another thread, methinks.
Well, we did have an offer for 1 EuroCent per GB, but without raid, however Xen so you could export it any way you wanted. It was sold out long ago, but wasnt much interest for it, though. For KS2G the price would be even lower, it comes to less than a cent per GB.
Hi, (first post here)
another poor guy waiting for some KS2G to show up. Ordered on July 25, waiting ever since. However I'm a bit wary of their new Anti-DDoS thingy - according to the website it constantly monitors traffic, blocks any protocol beyond icmp/tcp/udp/gre and can not be deactivated on a server (except with some €50 VIP plan).
Any feedback from new KS2G users about that filtering/blocking feature? I really need VPN abilities - both vanilla OpenVPN and plain IPSEC (hence protocols 50 and 51)
If it proves too sensitive/nasty with non-OVH-approved traffic, oh well... better pay 10 or 20 bucks more to get some usable non-neutered dedicated server...
Cheers & thanks in advance
Two small problems intervene:
So no, thanks, although I assume there are and will be many happy users of the mentioned plan.
Care to quote where anything like that is stated?
Also since when "vanilla OpenVPN" uses protocol 50? Last time I checked it worked over plain TCP or UDP.
.
ESP = protocol 50
I don't mind the wait any more, if they are out of stock, at least there is a good chance I will get better hardware with my server.
From your quote:
When I used OpenVPN it did not require anything beyond TCP/UDP. And in any case, I do not think anything whatsoever is blocked at OVH, and no proof has been presented to the contrary.
Meanwhile, they finally added the part about pricing increases from 1st Sept: http://www.kimsufi.com/fr/index.xml
Hopefully DDoS protection will work by then and the punishment will be only to be routed over the vacuum servers, no longer the boot like before, whether it was real or imaginary.
If that is so, 1 Eur a month is really cheap. I believe there will be restrictions for tunnels in order to block people from using their ultracheap servers for DDoS protection elsewhere. If there is none already, then it will probably be introduced.
You got that right, most people that had/have DDOS problems will start moving their websites/gameservers there, and I think some people will even offer DDOS protection services, that's the problem with these offers, many people are trying to abuse them to make a quick buck.
I orderd 3x the 2G on the 15th, still didn't receive them. Also when I bought them I was promised to get 2 cores, does this mean they have to give me them?
As said before: The KS 2G 2013 comes with the same hardware, no matter when you ordered. 2 cores, 4 threads, same mobo.
Woo, first server delivered!
@nekki order number?
I got one too! Now waiting for 2 more!
@Nekki @xset which motherboard? (run dmidecode)
11 working days today, still not delivered. Emails now being ignored. Wonderful. Worst bit is I ordered before some people that have already recieved.
@xset Order number 21470312
@rds100 It's the DN2800MT
This was my original order from the 25/7 at around 9pm.
just renew your dedi for a full year in advance, so you get that for free till autumn 2014.
@bennd what is your order id?
@nekki my second one should be delivered soon too. it has 214706xx order id.
@Nekki 21470312, I am 2147045X, so pretty soon also, 140 servers to go
Unfortunatelly, my order not was delivered from julie 30. I received a mail with "Payment cancelled" . I can't register on Kimsufi forum, I get a: _Désolé, les inscriptions ont été désactivées par l'administrateur. [RO] _ - message. I'm from Romania,in Europe.
No, they dont have to give them to you, they proved it does not matter what the offer said, they can change terms at will, but, since they are out of stock and one cores are hard to get by, it is highly unlikely you will get a one core atom, because celeron is on par with the 2 cores atom.
@linuxglobe you paid via paypal?
Yes, I paid via Paypal
OVH increases the rate of delivery: fuction was exceeded 700 servers / J and the week should turn pro 1000 / J (excluding KS-2G)
@linuxglobe then its no news.. you can reorder using CC when they become available, but I think the price is higher due to DDOS protection then
