why are you reinstalling if it wasnt compromised? youre lying to us.
He's 100% not. Look at the speech patterns, the repeated vomiting of the same claims with no info, refusing to acknowledge that which doesn't fit his narrative. It's eric. @angstrom @DP can we ban this clown again already?
their entire infrastructure is comprised yet somehow they need to reinstall console fresh and it wasnt compromised? explain this logic? their console has been off since and is now up and down. they obviously restored from backup so its obvious theyre lying
Go away Eric.
I think you should consider taking some time off your gadgets. Maybe go out, jog, eat, go to a cinema.
Dear sir, think whatever you want, have your fun in our issue, its fine.
Since we all are busy we wont be able to reply to your questions, that is why we are giving public messages with all the information new we have.
What is an Eric ?
This is critical for everyone to know. this is the most important thing. Why won't you tell us if your console was compromised or not? Or "ransomwared" as you put it. This required full GDPR reporting.

This will be my 3rd IP renumbering of one of my VMs so far this year. It's the first data loss I've had in a while, but that also happens a lot with LET hosts. In fact, Hostdzire's NL offer explicitly said that the host server didn't have RAID configured so data loss was a very foreseeable outcome.
Come on chill,, ha ha ha
Bye bye Eric
Are we taking bets on his next username yet?
IN FAT32 Special, newly rebuilt:
Got email and server up and running in Netherlands.
Down time was
Resolved in 3d 16h 8m 0s: Linux: Zabbix agent is not available
It is a very good server. Sed it will probably go up in price upon next renewal.
Update – VPS Provisioning Progress
Hello Everyone,
Here is another update on the VPS restoration process.
We are pleased to confirm that all India Cloud VPS services have now been assigned to customer accounts.
India Cloud VPS
100% Completed ✅
All India Cloud VPS customers should now be able to see their replacement VPS in the Client Area. Activation emails have also been sent.
Netherlands VPS
We have made significant progress with the Netherlands infrastructure as well.
Approximately 80% of the Netherlands VPS services have now been assigned.
The remaining 20% are currently being processed, and we expect to complete the remaining assignments within the next 2–3 hours.
If You Have Not Received an Activation Email
Please do not rely only on the activation email. Email delivery can sometimes fail because of email bounces, delivery delays, spam filtering, or other email-related issues.
Please log in to your Client Area and check whether your VPS has already been assigned.
If the VPS is assigned, you will be able to find the VPS access details there, even if you did not receive the activation email.
If your VPS is assigned but is not working or is not accessible, you can try reinstalling the VPS from the Client Area.
If You Encounter an Error
If your VPS is assigned but you receive an error while:
please open a support ticket and include a screenshot of the error.
A screenshot will help our team identify and resolve the issue much faster. Please avoid opening multiple tickets for the same issue.
We are now focused on completing the remaining Netherlands VPS assignments and expect to have the entire Netherlands provisioning process completed within the next 2–3 hours.
Thank you once again for your patience and understanding throughout this recovery process.
Kind Regards,
HostDZire Team
Should work now.
My NL vps has been resurrected too.
Total downtime: 3 days, 18 hours, 19 minutes
98.2% uptime since Dec 2025
The only complain I have is not sending an email to all affected customers in the first hours of the incident, I only noticed 12h later by logging on dashboard. This matters for api/secret/test-keys rotation, even if attackers seemingly didn't exfiltrate any data, it's always better to rotate them just in case when things like these happen.
Either way I have no other complains since i'm paying pennies for this, but let's see if it will increase in price at renewal thanks to ram apocalypse 🙃 (ai was a mistake)
Update – VMware VPS Provisioning Completed
Hello Everyone,
We are pleased to provide another update on the recovery and VPS provisioning process.
We can now confirm that all affected VMware VPS services in both India and the Netherlands have been assigned to customer accounts.
India Cloud VPS
100% Completed ✅
All affected India Cloud VPS services have been recreated and assigned to the respective customer accounts.
Netherlands VPS
100% Completed ✅
The remaining Netherlands VPS services have also now been provisioned and assigned.
What You Should Do
If your VPS has been assigned, please log in to your Client Area and check your service details. Your VPS access information should be available there.
You may also have received an automatic VPS activation email. If you did not receive the email, please don't be concerned, as email delivery can sometimes fail due to bounces, delays, spam filtering, or other email-related issues.
If your VPS is assigned but is not working or is not accessible, you can try reinstalling the VPS from your Client Area.
If you encounter an error while reinstalling, starting/stopping the VPS, or using any other management function, please open or reply to your support ticket with a screenshot of the error. This will help our team investigate and resolve the issue more quickly.
Please avoid opening multiple tickets for the same issue.
We understand that this recovery process has taken considerably longer than anyone expected. We sincerely appreciate your patience and understanding while our team worked continuously to rebuild the infrastructure and restore affected services.
Kind Regards,
HostDZire Team
@HostDZire since the provisioning is complete could you look at the message I sent when you wake up tomorrow? Disaster struck you while we were in the middle of something on August 3rd.
Did HostDZire mention this somewhere or are you guessing? (it would be a reasonable guess)
Inferring.
At this point, it would be a miracle if the promotional plans most of us are on didn't get a price increase.
Is anyone else having an issue with the VNC console in India? When I click the Open Console link it just says Disconnected in the window that pops up. Looks like a 503 error on the websocket.
Why continue using VMWARE??? Are you waiting for the next vulnerability to get extorted again??
It’s a very strange decision to use the exact same thing that got hacked. I probably won’t renew my server in the future; I’ve switched to another provider.
You think broadcom will never fix it?
