http://serverfault.com – I used to use linode and this is what I had in db file: ttl 86400 example.com. IN SOA li153-35.members.linode.com. foo.example.com. ( 2011051301 21600 3600 604800 86400 ) example.com. IN NS li153-35.members.linode.com. example.com. IN NS ns1.linode.com. example.com. IN A 66.238.66.37 www IN A 66.238.66.37 * IN A 66.238.66.37 Then on my domain registrar I modified the dns of my domain with the linode ones. I have no idea what to use for my primary and secondary dns on ec2, doesn't ec2 has dns like linode used to offer? What should I do? (HowTos)

i have setup a new site www.example.org (dummy name) on my linode VPS (i am using ubuntu 10) as below:

<VirtualHost *:80> ServerAdmin webmaster@example.org ServerName example.org ServerAlias www.example.org DocumentRoot /var/www/example.org/public_html/ ErrorLog /var/www/example.org/logs/error.log CustomLog /var/www/example.org/logs/access.log combined </Vir

I have bought a domain from 123-reg.co.uk and have successfully pointed it to the IP Address of my Linode VPS so that going to the domain serves up the pages from the Apache server running on the VPS. The instructions I followed to do this are :

Now, I am trying to get the domain's mail handled by Google Apps for Business.

I've got a domain (example.com) registered with godaddy and pointed to nameservers hosted by linode. I've got a multisite WordPress install on linode (blogs.com) and I want to point the domain to a subdomain of the wordpress install (example.com -> example.blogs.com).

The subdomain of the wordpress install works fine - DNS can find it and I can browse to it.

I've been using Linode for over a year now, and, unlike some lesser-known VPS hosts I've used, I've never been required to shut down my VPS by Linode. The only restarts have been ones I've initiated.

How do they go for years on end without requiring restarts and with no downtime? Isn't downtime inevitable when upgrading some parts of the host system?

I have a Ruby on Rails application and a couple of PHP projects nearly complete (all using MySQL) that I'd like to host on a Linode server and need some help with what I'd need to install and configure to do this.

Hello,

What changes will I need to make, besides getting a separate IP address, so I can host 2 domains on the VPS?

I have a domain hosted on a VPS at Linode (I'm pretty happy with them) and would like to add another domain to the same VPS with its own IP address.

I have a personal server on linode. I just finished a job for a customer and want to move his site to his personal server. The domain servers are pointing to Linode but his is now on something else. If instead of him changing his domain servers and setting up his own domain I only forward from linode to his IP will this be using my bandwidth (or other) resources?

As mentioned in the title I tried transferring files between Windows 7 and the samba server running on both Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04 but both showed very slow transfer speeds.

Can someone please guide me in the right direction to debug this problem ?

I have a linode account and through the DNS manager tab added a domain. Since this information isn’t stored in the installed ubuntu hosts file. where is it located? Is it possible to view the entry or is it an outside DNS server?
