Looking for a GOOD, no... ALL ROUND website developer
by Kago Kagichiri 30 Nov '09

30 Nov '09

In these times where everyone claims to be a website developer, it's really hard to know any good ones. Some have since formed companies and stopped doing the "small" websites and others are REALLY good but are extremely hard to follow. Any good affordable developers out there looking to add some VERY innovative portals to their portfolio? We're not talking about company websites here, we're talking more of content-driven specialized functionality websites. -- K.K. -- The only reason I can't bring myself to hate or judge anyone is because no one is that important.

Hi guys, i have a problem with a server where the server performance is unstable,one time it is good and the other time is completely slow causing the sybase server running on the machine to be slow too. On the hardware side we checked the RAM and the part numbers were:398707-051..im not an expert in hardware but can someone confirm to me whether this part number is certified for HP SERVER DL 580.Or what else could cause a new HP server to be so unstable in speed your response will be highly appreciated

Help a SPAM Bomb Victim.. :(
by Simon Mbuthia 29 Nov '09

29 Nov '09

Hey guys, I am running MDaemon and it seems like someone has his spam guns pointed at me. Our server does a domainpop to our ISP, with which we have an account. When I log on to our mailbox at the ISP, I see a ton of junk mail. Our mail server in the office is terribly slow and when I look at the process monitor, I see MSpamD.exe hogging memory like nobody's business. It looks like someone is trying to DoS us... Anything I can do on the MDaemon configs to counter this attack? Kindly advise. S. -- שִׁמְעוֹן

Some Statistics on KE TLD Hosting
by rsohan＠gmail.com 28 Nov '09

28 Nov '09

Finding myself at a loose end this afternoon, I decided to do some quick stats on the KE domain. Here are the results: *1. Total Domains registered:* * * accogoneorsc23996064072163528 *2. Growth Compared to 2007:* * * ac - 97.5% co - 51.6% go - 135.2% ne - 133.2% or - 13.7% sc - 211.1% *3. Hosting of core domain services (WWW, Mail, Nameserver):* All numbers are percentages. Provide top 6. XX - refers to private networks. Means my geoIP library could not resolve the location of the geographical location of the IP address. (Statistically, you could roughly account for this by redistributing this value, by weight, to known locations). * * *a. WWW: *(Tested by resolving geoIP of www.<domainname>.<ac|co|go|ne|or|sc>.<tld>) (US) 34.20 (XX) 29.20 (KE) 28.80 (HK) 01.20 (UK) 01.10 (DE) 01.10 *b. Mail: * (Location of the primary (lowest value) MX record): (KE) 51.90 (US) 21.30 (XX) 14.10 (DE) 05.20 (JP) 02.40 (CA) 01.00 *c. Nameserver:* (Location of all nameserver records): (KE) 41.80 (US) 32.00 (XX) 09.00 (EU) 03.50 (DE) 02.50 (CA) 02.50 *d. All: *( Consolidation of all records): (KE) 42.00 (US) 29.40 (XX) 14.70 (DE) 03.00 (EU) 01.70 (CA) 01.70 *4. Conclusions:* -Rapid growth in domain registration in the last two years -While core services are mostly being hosted in KE, local retention could be improved. Would be interesting to redo the study in two years to see how things have changed.
