Kev
If you have "Bought" your own server and have colocated it, you can do anything you like with it. You need the VPS software though. Do you have that? Have you asked your host this question?

Re: Question about VPS & Dedicated Server
Isnt it always the first point of contact if you have questions about your service, you go to the service provider?
Or do you have one of those totally unmanaged servers where your on-your-own as long as its not down?

Re: Question about VPS & Dedicated Server
Hey,
Yes i got it a fantisic price, but its defend yourself type of thing lol - The only reason i bought it because of the price and the spec!! :-) I normally work things out by myself, however i am stumped at some things, so just asking about that's all. Thanks Kev |

Re: Question about VPS & Dedicated Server
Ahh ok, thats 5 forums today so far I've encountered where people are having problems with services, and when I asked everybody, thay have all said they chose based totally on price!
Maybe we should just lower all of our own prices and sack our support staff? lol Looks like we would have far more customers if we did....?

Re: Question about VPS & Dedicated Server
I never EVER by any services based totally on price alone. When your renting services, you have to ask yourself what will happen if something goes wrong? If I was running that company, could I provide first class service and employ good quality staff for that money?
If you cant, then chances are, neither can the company your dealing with. Quote:
Like car insurance.... do you pick the cheapest insurer blindly, or do you pick the one that will actually pay out should you have an accident, and cover your legal cost's should the third party try to take you to court? So come on, who did you take your server with? Are you trying to setup VPS's to sell on and start your own hosting company?
