Highly recommended VPS
@oplink
We always appreciate your feedback and comments you share on LET in all posts. Thank you for your business.
Can I get 3-day trial VPS for this one?
Thank you.
The 3day refund policy is for new clients so they test us out, if they are unhappy they can request a refund. This helps people in test the network, as a lot of clients setup VPNs etc.
@oplink how much if I want to increase just ram
@oplink
Any YABs on the 7950?
Email, [email protected] this would require custom prices. Include what plan you want as your base plan in the email.
.
will be posting updated YABS shortly
Its always nice to compare your older April 8th I pasted above to a new one!
The 7950x ones' price seems higher than before. I should grab more.
The old May/June specials did get tweaked https://oplink.net/vps-specials/
We now offer 10% off annual prepays too on all plans.
Do you have JS enabled? We dont have anything super aggressive setup w/ cloudflare. Try using default browser settings. You appear to be failing the JS Challenge. You could try another browser as well.
@oplink: it's the Falkon browser that doesn't tolerate any kind of CloudFlare. Alas I also don't tolerate any kind browser but Falkon.
However, if you could move the CF protection down to the cart page or to the payment module itself and leave the product pages free from CF, I'd be able to PonyHost your services. (the PonyHost bot is blocked by CloudFlare)
.
Please Use another browser to order. Too many bots order when we have viral sales. It helps block some bad actors.
Nice offer

Running Windows 11 Enterprise
It is important to keep Windows RDP secured.
1. Use a custom id as account with admin privileges
2. Make default Administrator account as disabled
3. Use non standard port for connecting with Windows RDP
Any other tips to hardening apart from disabling administrator account?
Changing rdp port for me is security via obscurity.
Refer to list of cost-effective RDP security best practices

Any thoughts on 2FA or MFA for RDP?
This is the VPS plan I recommend for Windows RDP.
Some of our VPS clients use this for windows rdp firewall: https://rdpguard.com, its not free, but they do offer a free trial. I played with a little, it works well. I personally recommend you restrict RDP by IP.
There is ways to do certificate/ IP locks /port changes all within windows to help secure RDP some more.
Certificate-Based Authentication
Generate a Certificate:
Install the Certificate:
Configure RDP to Use the Certificate:
Ohbl I wish there was an automatic way to setup letsEncrypt cret and renew it constantly and deploy on rdp server
