Hello Hostned,

I am considering a stock installation of one of the CMS products from the control panel.  I am thinking of WordPress or Joomla.  Does Hostned have a preference as to which we use from a security standpoint?  Are there any changes from the standard install that need to be done?  I do not want to leave my site or your servers vulnerable.

Thanks in advance for your input.

When I got home from work yesterday, several of my domains were not responding.  I logged into Plesk and it looked like it was upgraded.  I opened a support ticket and got no response.  Now when I try to log into the control panel it says the account is disabled and it looks like the old Plesk.  There are errors for the security certificate for both the control panel and email.  How long will this take to fix so that my sites are up and running?  At this time, I don't even know if I have email access.  Thanks, Melanie

I cannot log into plesk for the main account domain.  I get the attached error message.  Something happened with MySQL.  My Joomla install is now showing "unauthorized to view this page" when I click any of the links.  I submitted a support ticket more than 36 hours ago and have not received a response.  What is happening?  Was there a recent upgrade?

I was wondering if anyone is using the new Vista and what are your thoughts?  I am still using an XP box because I do not have the time to learn a new OS...but with the Vista I feel it's time to change.  Microsoft has gotten too invasive and overbearing for my taste.  I am considering a Linux box.  I use only Linux hosting for my domains, so it seems a natural progression to change my desktop.

If anyone out there is a Linux fan and uses a Linux desktop box, would you please point me in the direction of a few resources/recommendations so I begin the task of learning what I will need as far as hardware and software.

Thanks for your help.

Hello,

I have been with Hostned for several years now and I have never taken advantage of the custom error pages.  Since the domains I host have been redesigned several times in that time frame, old crawls from search engines turn up outdated links.  I would like to have those outdated links automatically forward to the current site.

Can I use a meta-refresh on the error pages?  And are the pages in the error_docs folder of the root the pages I can customize?  I do not want to mess with anything before I am sure.

Thanks for the help.
