@johnkoozle - When will you remove port 25 block?
It is still a work in progress
Regards
Hi John.
I'm starting to feel a bit disenchanted - nowhere in the ordering process can I find anything about blocking Port 25. I've paid for 12 months service and can't run a mail server effectively on my vps. When will you be sorting this deficiency out?
I'm sorry you feel that way
I will investigate when we can remove the block
I ordered one of 512M at $6/year for over a week now. It works so far pretty reliably. I am not a heavy user but it at least is as good or better than other low cost VPSs that has lower spec and/or higher price. I think it will a good choice for PBXes and or light use mail servers.
@johnkoozle i've sent ticket asking for custom order, please check!
Thanks for the review
I think this was replied to, there is no open tickets
No CC? damn
Is port 25 still being blocked? inbound or outbound? Is it possible to run a mail server to accept inbound mail from the internet? I won't be sending mail.
Any reviews? Considering using these guys.
Thanks,
Mini review:
Bought a $12/year 'expert' vps in December for light use
VPS was available almost immediately after order completed.
Installed Ubuntu
Multiple attempts to install Virtualmin failed (with 2 different Ubuntu versions) - seems BSDUTILS is missing from the available Ubuntu distros.
Performance/reliability all seem pretty good.
Server bear
Only real gripe so far is that Port 25 (incoming and outgoing from what I can tell) is (still) blocked so can't run a mail server.
Assuming John sorts out port 25 fairly soon, it is great VFM
The block on 25,465 has been removed however there are strict limits in place.
I just ordered $6/year, is it possible to upgrade it to $12/year plan and get different subnets, as mentioned by @jtcx? I am planning to host a small mail server for my personal websites. Hope, port 25 is no more blocked now! I can see that it is possible to set rDNS from control panel, that seems pretty kool, though I have not updated it yet.
OK - my mail server now works - thanks.
What are the "strict limits" ?
Yes this is possible
Port 25 is now allowed!
Undisclosed sorry, however any legit mail service shouldnt hit this.
OK - as long as I can set up and operate email accounts for 'normal' use. I have no interest in any form of bulk mail (sending or receiving).
Sure that's fine then
@johnkoozle Thanks John! I PMed u tkt number.
No. of cpu cores ?
1-2
I have got a IP Systems a couple of hours ago and still I cannot access SolusVM (wrong username and password with provided credentials). I opened I ticket and they don't reply to me..is that normal?
Well I have a certain rush and simply they are not replying me...as a start its not bad!
Ordered one with PayPal and their IPN seems to be broken.
This was resolved. You used characters that are not allowed.
Your ticket was replied to.
i signed up for the 256mb vps, so far i'm amazed with the performance. I have had other VPSes OpenVZ, KVM, Xen and even Dedicated servers. This one is so fast because of SSD.

other times i've got disk copy speeds upto 450 MB/s
setup was instantaneous after the payment and i was able to re-install OS in seconds. I would totally recommend this VPS to anyone who's looking and the price is unbeatable at this performance IMHO.
