could be their reseller cabs?

Posted by MF-DOOM, 10-10-2009, 12:31 AM
ok yes more on this, seems some box owners and resellers were emailed on friday afternoon with spam warnings on a range of listed ips. they were told they had 48hrs to sort it out, 20mins later ALL boxes under that resellers account were removed regardless if they were suspected of spam or not. terrible work there, OVH.... as it was a friday afternoon action and they are only open M-F there is little hope of a resolution prior to next week. a pretty weak display of general practice by OVH and punishing other customers due to a few 'bad eggs' is horrible. they had the *suspected* ips and could have managed those off the network but instead seem to have removed the whole cab or subnet as a quick solution. of course there is probably some backend to this story, but as they havent been here to explain themselves and have not given any response to my resellers calls and emails it's hard to see how they could not be painted in a bad light. Sort it out, OVH...

Beastserv.com , yesterday i order dedicated server and now it down

im also with beastserv - if you go to their site they have a temp page up explaining the email and the current situation. i see no reason to suspect any wrong doing by BS at all in this, they have been great for me over the last year, it just seems the DC has taken the simple/stupid route of just removing ALL their customers vs. isolating the ones in the emails.....

I perfectly see what is written on site. and who generally speaks of the poor quality of BS? I really even like them a support and Servers.

If my site does not come back on Monday, Which I know right now I am out of close to 500 bucks. I am going to sue OVH and bad mouth them. I am losing money left and right. I ran a good size tube site and never had problem with beastserv until yesterday. Why didnt they give them the 48 hours and why take everyone off. I have bills to pay

"The following IP Addresses are bound to your servers and sending spam, please shutdown the IP's that are sending spam in the next 48 Hours, otherwise we will be forced to shutdown the server." They didn't give them 48 hours

Shutting you guys down for spam seems weird, considering all the dos/ddos drones and ircds on their network they ignore. We've had a few attacks originate from OVH, their abuse/support never even replied. We even supplied full details outlining the attackers use of their network. Has anyone else had similar experiences with this company? It's good their handling spam complaints seriously, perhaps they will start removing the ircd & drones as well. One example

pretty stupid shutting them ALL off when they defined a list of IPs as suspect.... surely start there?

in ovhs defence as far as they concerned reselling isnt done with there servers after all it against there tos so only person you can blame for this is the resellers for selling boxes to idiots that spam? taken from ovhs tos Dedicated Server The Dedicated Server shall remain the property of the Supplier at all times. The Customer shall not be entitled to sell, transfer, lease, charge, assign by way of security or otherwise deal in or encumber the Dedicated Server.

Ovh in there email said they will give 48 hours for beastserv.com/ to remove spammers from there system, they shut them down in a hour and hurt other honest webmasters.

Oh my this doesn't look good. that's the reason i always say backup backup backup.

We have a client that has had more then a few ddos attacks from their network. You are correct on their abuse department being non existent for those issues.

Posted by Pastorsinalot, 10-12-2009, 10:19 AM

Posted by hosteur, 10-12-2009, 10:19 AM
