Cpanel Web Host

I am with a web host where i get 200 gigs a month. I just noticed in my cpanel i am getting 190 petabytes.?
Any idea how many gigs are in 190 petabytes? did the hosting company make a mistake?

Well, there are 1000 gigabytes in a terabyte (1024 when talking about storage), and 1000 (1024) terabytes in a petabyte. So basically, 190 petabytes is 190,000,000 gigabytes. Either you're hosting a *very* popular site or the hosting company made a mistake. ;)

Is it possible to configure the cpanel error log?
I've got a web host that uses the cpanel control panel (http://cpanel.net/index.html) on a unix platform. The error log is set up to report the most recent 300 errors, but many of the errors I get have to do with IP addresses I've blocked from my system (spam bots). I'd like to ignore these errors and only track those that are useful to me. Is it possible to configure what errors get reported by cpanel?

The short answer is yes. The long answer is it involves wading into the cPanel code and making some alterations.

Can a Linux-based web host provide an ODBC connection to an MS Access database?
I run a website that is hosted on a Windows server. I am hoping to shift to a Linux-based server (probably something that runs the cPanel setup, as I am familiar with it). The biggest issue is that the current website has a static database that is used to serve up information to the visitors. It's the most popular feature of the website, so I want to make sure the transition is right. This database is an MS Access file. I have a simple ODBC connection to that file, and then I have PHP code that peeks into the file and lets visitors do queries. My concern is that if I move to Linux / LAMP, I will not be able to make this simple ODBC connection to the MS Access file, and I will need to convert the DB into MySQL. I would like to avoid doing this, as the database comes to me from someone else who operates in MS Access. (I am aware of the possibility of converting to MySQL every time, I just would like to avoid doing so.)

If you can afford to have two systems, one Linux box and another one Windows box, then you can do what you want. Host your MSAccess file on windows machine and use ODBC to access it. but what I guess is this will cost you more as compared to one time investment, convert your data from MSAccess to MySql and use it. I do not know, but there will be a way, you can check source forge for any project if somebody has developed a MS Access support on linux, then your problem will be solved. i hope this resolve your problem. http://www.paijwar.com for more help

How do I start a Web Host?
Hey guys, I recently started fidgeting around with servers and such because me and a few investors are planning on running a Web Host. We were having some troubles here and there but we got passed them, especially with the hardware and T3 being not available at our location. The last problem we ran into was actually having all our servers running the normal things that other Web Hosts had. We wanted to run our plan by other people and ask for help on one thing as well. Here it is: Buy parts. Put everything together. Install Linux/Microsoft Install XAMPP and here is where we stop. First question, which Microsoft do you recommend? We were thinking about using 2003 but we are hesitant. Second issue, where do we get the cPanel and features like Click-n-Build systems 1and1, BlueHost, and MonsterHost have? Also if we left out anything or am totally being dumb about something, please tell us! All help and suggestions appreciated! Sincerely, Jason
