All, The sole hosting provider that I'm aware of that offered Owl based VPS hosting is closing, as outlined below. So, anyone got any recommendations for a replacement service that can offer KVM hosting with the ability to run Openwall GNU/*/Linux ? ;-) Regards, Simon. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Blue Room Hosting is shutting down Date: Tue, 31 Aug 2010 13:51:59 +0000 (GMT) From: info_at_private To: simonb_at_private Hello, We would like to inform you that we have decided to shut down our hosting operations. This was not any easy decision to make, but after two and a half years we have simply failed to achieve the scale necessary to be profitable. We would also like to thank all our customers, who have helped us develop a hosting service we are proud of, and wish to make the migration to other service providers an easy one. To that end we will be suspending further invoices and contract renewals, while at the same time running a full service for the next month and a limited service after that until our rack space contract expires. The important dates are as follows: === 1st of September === We will not be accepting contract renewals from this date onwards, and will not be issuing any further invoices. All PayPal subscriptions will be cancelled. The SLA refunds for August will be processed as normal, which will be a 100% refund for most customers because of the two network outages. === Throughout September === We will be issuing any appropriate SLA refunds and returning outstanding balances on accounts as contracts expire. === 1st of October === All contracts will have expired, but we will continue to run all VPSs on a best effort basis. We will not be offering 24/7 support after this date, and will not be making any guarantees as to support availability, but we will do our best to deal with any problems and to respond to any requests. === 1st of November === All VPSs will be shut down, as we will then have to move our servers out of the data centre before our contract expires. Please accept our sincere apologies for this inconvenience. It is truly regrettable that we have arrived at this point, but we are unable to continue in this market at this time. We wish you all the best for the future, The Blue Room Hosting Team -- Blue Room Hosting http://blueroomhosting.com/
