When it comes to personal data leakage: once is bad, twice is awful, recurrent is downright neglect of duty. Is this why I'm seeing more spam than ever? (rhetorical)

As a small scale value add hosting provider, with no reselling intentions my billing requirements are modest. With a previous VPS provider, I managed to persuade them to give me a license for "eHostBill", which I imagine is/was their front…

(Quote) LMFTFY: Safer not better. (Non ass shagging perspective) (Quote) This. Each packet received needs to be processed somewhere, whether 'good' or 'bad'.

IPSet/CSF is your friend.

If only file retention would work properly in Nextcloud - gets a bit tedious culling older backup files manually. Note: if you (s)FTP files to nextcloud, they won't be encrypted, AFAIK - might be an issue/consideration. It's the reason, for me using…

OK - had enough. It's potato or potatoes! Jeez. Looks like the Cest Pit is spreading into other threads - not good. :| Can you guys not save the shit for the Cest or Amitz threads?

There may be trouble ahead..

Temporarily switch to DHCP? (Quote) These should match your static assignment. What size is /var/log/messages? A "tail -f" on the file might give clues, during the problem times; I suspect it'll be filling up too quickly though.
-
/etc/resolv.conf? Which DNS provider are you using for the domain? Is your ssh slowness there, whether you use IP or domain name? Are you bound to the correct gateway? I presume you're using a static IP. Which firewall and do things improve dramatic…

(Quote) Similar to mine, using Vancouver to a USA VPS. It'll be interesting to try the same tomorrow, prior to any other contact with your VPS. Perhaps Ant will be feeling a bit better and can investigate from his perspective. (Quote) Note: the &q…

Load average isn't of concern at this point, unlike i/o wait & steal. Remove DNS resolving from sshd_config, if enabled. traceroute from your PC to your VPS (may need to open your firewall). Once, again: GTMetrix on your Nextcloud URL.

@radmerc DNF/Centos8: why? come off extraneous software/bleeding edge. (@Bochi 1.5% steal shouldn't be an issue, that I/O wait sure is though.) Open a ssh and begin top monitoring, with a 5s interval. Then try logging into Nextcloud Check your DNS …

From the wiki about blinkenlights.. (Quote) Probably still got one of those (a 3rd party one) stuffed in a drawer someplace. :-o

Might be tempted to take another look at netdata, installing from github. Munin can sometimes get a bit bogged down generating charts but generally I've found it reliable.
-
(Quote) Yes, though the type & quantity of data passed to the remote netdata was far too revealing and was enough for me to immediately terminate it. Fine to use external montoring (Hetrix, Uptime etc.) to check for common ports (eg. 80,ping) bu…
-
(Quote) In CWP, click on Graphs, Netdata and before you know it, it installs software and sends a heap of data to a 3rd party. Fab. not! The act of monitoring implies some performance degradation, so for 1s granularity I suggest the monitoring itsel…

Wouldn't go anywhere near the netdata spyware, after an encounter in CWP.

@alexxgg The word is stuff, not stuffs! Stuff is a noun - there is no plural; stuffs is a verb.

HT can show you offline, even without agents, for http(s),mysql etc. With agents/snmp much more is possible. Perhaps I should've emphasised my first sentence in the previous post. ;)

All depends on how much information that you want and how much you wish to expose to external parties. The OP was lacking in detail, apart from Nagios. Munin is an appropriate alternative for internal use. (Quote) uptime, according to HetrixTools f…

(Quote) Shite, what did I miss all those moons ago?

LMFTFY (Quote) Commendable response but feel the red flags are still flying, given previous alleged comments elsewhere.

(Quote) Sang it to the missus - emphasis at Santa Host: "Oh, no way" ((shakes head))

Time will tell. redacted. (Doesn't explain noob questions.)
