LEA (LowEndAdmin) is the original founder of LowEndBox and the visionary who gave rise to an entire movement around minimalist, efficient hosting. In 2008, LEA launched LowEndBox with a simple but powerful idea: that it was possible to run meaningful applications, web servers, VPNs, mail servers, and more – on small, low-cost virtual machines with minimal resources.
At a time when most infrastructure discussions were dominated by high-end servers and enterprise platforms, LEA championed the opposite approach: lightweight Linux distros, self-managed servers, open source software, and thoughtful optimization. This philosophy gave birth to the term “Low End Box”, which would come to define a new genre of hosting tailored to developers, tinkerers, and budget-conscious users around the world.
Through LowEndBox and its companion forum, LowEndTalk, LEA built the foundation for what would become one of the most active and enduring communities in the hosting world, prioritizing knowledge-sharing, transparency, and accessibility.
After several years of nurturing the site and community, LEA stepped away from active involvement, passing the torch to a new generation of admins, contributors, and moderators. Today, LEA remains a respected figure in the LowEnd ecosystem, credited with launching a platform and philosophy that continues to influence thousands of infrastructure providers and users globally.
LowEndBox’s legacy, and its thriving community, is a direct result of LEA’s original vision.
I just stumbled upon this site and think its awesome! I’ve been wanting to get my own VPS but had minimal hardware requirements(mostly just going to do ssh tunneling and test python applications) and didn’t want to pay $40/month. So anyways I noticed there are a few $5 128MB memory offers, but was hoping that you could post your favorite $5 VPS because I have no clue which one to go with. Thank you!
Hey I was also wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to run an X-server and do X Forwarding with a 128MB(ram) VPS. Hopefully it is and hopefully someone could point me to an easy step by step tutorial. Thanks!
After some digging I noticed that this site is hosted on a vpslink.com VPS, so I figure if its good enough for this site, its good enough for me :)
VPSLink is good but I think it is a bit “pricy”. I’ll use it to host websites that you want to see good up time and consistent network throughput. I’ll probably find someone cheaper if it’s for personal VPN or proxy :)
Looks like CubicHost.org is down. Its NS are not resolvable (ns[12].fcphost.org owned by the same person). It’s old IP address with Colo4Jax is not responding either…
CubicHost.org is back again, with an IP address change + restore of service.
CubicHost.org has been down (IP not resolvable) since 7 November 2009, and it is still offline. According to this post on WHT I doubt it will be back soon. Marked as dead.
Edit: Well, it just came back online on 14 Nov 2009 after a whole week of outage.
Edit 2: Dead again since 20 Nov 2009.
