A new server
The main hosters of YaS, including Flamehaze,Neic0, W0rf0x and me are thinking about to get a new server.
We aren’t sure yet which, but we thought about at least of getting a root-server with 4GB ram and a Core 2 Duo or a 8GB ram with a Xeon CPU. The prices are quite high but with 4 people paying for it, it’s cheaper than any virtual server you could otherwise get (which has a much worse performance).
Example: My server costs around 30€ a month and it’s a virtual server. Sharing the best root server we think about to get would only cost 25 € a month for each of us – while having a around 10 times better performance than my server has.
The idea is, to run a linux host system on it with the virtualistion Xen and then install (at least) one Windows Server via Xen. The pros for this are we don’t need to pay the monthly higher fee due to the Windows license general server-hosters take. We can use our own license. And luckily I have one laying unused around here at home 
Edit:
We deiced to buy this baby here. Intel Xeon Dual 2x 3.00+ GHz, 8 GB DDR2, 2x 750 GB.
Edit:
The new server is now available but still needs to be configured.
Epic!
Yep.
And I’m going to plan to icreases my servers slots to 16 and to remove the password.
Good idea, and with Linux’s stability the server will crash/froze half of the time it does now…
Well, the server will be based on linux and Xen, the virtualistion software, will run on linux.
But again, we will have Windows. Windows Server 2008 Enterprise.
Yeah, but a Windows under Linux is more stable than a simple Windows… I think Garry should make Linux Binaries for Gmod too…
What the fuck are you talking fonix? why should windows be more stable under linux? You are talking shit!
fonix: This makes no sense. It’s not more stable or more unstable since it runs using Xen (as an “administrator” who says how much performance it gets) and Vanderpool, an Intel virtualisation technology.
So actually Windows 2008 will run really on the hardware but with a software running on linux telling “how much resources it is allowed to use”.
But still I agree, Garry should make Linux bins. But that will never come.
Reasons are his “lua binaries” and also that compiling shit for Linux generally takes more time to fix all bugs. (It isn’t just like “Uh I press this button ‘compile for linux’ and it will work”
I gotta say, i’m loving the Server.
