It’s from William again, like last time. Except now he actually got a Support job at EDIS! That gotta to be a LowEndBox success story — tipping good low-end offers, being a helpful hand, asking for a job and gets it! Moreover, he is sending in some special promo code, for those who are interested in an Austrian VPS. Here is the updated VPS Smart at the same €2.99/month (~USD$4.32).
- 256MB guaranteed memory
- 2GB storage on RAID5 (use coupon code BESMART to upgrade to 5GB)
- 40GB/month data transfer on 1Gbps
- Linux-VServer/Custom web-interface
Or you can combine with coupon code YEARLY to get €30/year. Servers with their own data center in Graz, Austria (test IP: 91.118.76.43). Use this link to register. EDIS GmbH has been in business since 1999.

Thanks! Yes i am happy that i got that Job, it is really nice.
Code is YEARLY of course, misstyped in the mail – use whatever you want – we actually read the codes manually and know what you want then ;)
Test VPS available on request – feel free to mail support@edis.at
As it is Sunday, ordered VPS will be setup tommorow morning.
Reseller discounts also available (3vps+).
Prices without VAT.
I think that is everything that had to be said ;)
This is the reason and proof that LEB is not just another “hosting offer blog with affiliate and stolen content“. At least LEB not only the place where vps providers meet customers, but also employer meets job seeker. hahaha. I am happy for you all.
BTW, admin probably should post job-offer advertisement. Just in case there are some providers need a hand on support or sales. hehehe.
Job-offer advertisements — I would imagine that in the hosting market, there will be lots of one-off contract jobs, and support personnels on casual basis. Good of high-school teens to have a foot in the industry before becoming a hosting entrepreneur themselves :P
Let me think about it.
wait.. is it still linux-vserver or really OpenVZ this time?
I just ordered a couple of days ago and it was vserver.
Two Franciscos?! :S
It is still linux-vserver, but noted as OpeNVZ here (as it is very similar).
Nice to see more vserver offers on here; I think this is the second, after Alvotech a while back. Its limitations take a little getting used to, but that’s no different than OpenVZ, I suppose.
How secure is vserver compared to OpenVZ?
Sorry this is Linux-vserver offer. Fixed.
It is virtually the same as OpenVZ, just a bit better Ressource usage and some more limitations (no tun/tap in particular)
The no TUN/TAP sucks :( No TUN/TAP means no IPv6 for me :) Still waiting on XEN! :p
Do you allow eggdrop bots? (Guessing not, but worth the question)
On WHT:
—
Not allowed Content:
Spam, Warez, Phishing
Everything else (including IRC) is allowed, if legal.

They allow IRC, so I guess if you don’t attract ddos attacks, it will be fine.
Hello,
Just ordered one with the email mail@miguelsp.net but forgot to add the coupon to get 5GB hdd :P
Can you manually add it?
Got my instance up and running and it runs perfectly!
I’m going to order one more.
How to set the Firewall?
In the control panel is a “Firewall” field where you can enter iptables rules.
@William
Thanks.Actually,I don’t know how to use Firewall. -_-!
“Not allowed Content:
Spam, Warez, Phishing
Everything else (including IRC) is allowed, if legal.”
On the other topic sounds like warez linking is legal in austria?
Not legal, but also not clearly illegal – grey area in which nobody wants to risk something.
As example:
Downloading Warez releases for yourself would be illegal, to have them not – so if a friend gives you a burned DVD it would be not illegal.
So “storage” of warez is not illegal, Downloading is.
Upload is always illegal.
We also have not yet secured if Filehosters are legal, since you dont upload.
It’s a mess here.
What about p2p / torrents?
Thanks!
Each time I open the page to login, Chrome crashes :(
Ok, it works in Firefox
Ok, I’ve just set it up. It’s 64bit which is okay though I would have preferred 32bit, William is that possible? :D
I think it is excellent value for money, though where edis can improve is on their website. Switching from German to English via the hyperlink sometimes takes me back to the first part of where I was (ie, form).
Overall, I am very impressed with their fast setup and things are quite neat, ie, 5gb = 5120mb and they did that and not just 5000mb, They have set timezone properly — These are the little things that people don’t really notice and VPS companies quite often miss.
3 eur per month is fantastic for a student budget, I simply cannot fit in $20 a month for a Linode VPS.
That is $240 per year for Linode or 35.88 eur; both have discounts, Linode would be $216 per year and Edis would be 30 eur with code.
30 EUR = $40.82 AUD
$216 USD = $200.76 AUD
For that, I save $160 per year — It only makes sense to use Edis. I am using the same software using the same ram.
Keep it up Edis.at!
Sorry if I have somehow mislead you. The VPS at EDIS is in Austria, but you are quoting Australian dollar. Two very different places…
No, I knew that it was in Austria :D
(@Sam)
Only 64Bit, as the Host runs 64Bit (of course) :(
Yes, our english website is really bad currently – we’re working on it, but it will still take time.
If you have any problems that can’t be solved feel free to Call and ask to speak William, and i would be glad to assist you (or just use email to support AT edis.at ;))
32 bit templates can be used with 64 bit hosts
When rebuilding there is an option for 32 bit CentOS, so maybe 32 bit Debian could work too :D
Hi there ;-)
just wanted you to know that we will be adding the 32bit Debian templates for you.
CentOS 5 is already available in 64 and 32bit versions, but you’ve already seen that I guess ;-)
Debian templates will most likely become available right after Easter.
Happy Easter to you and thank you for your great input and comments – we very much appreciate that!
Cheers,
Gerhard
There is one more thing I’d like you to know – just in case you don’t receive our newsletters:
Dear valued customers!
We’d like to inform you about a planned downtime of our VPS hosting infrastructure in Austria due to system-upgrades. The downtime will take 60 minutes or less.
Maintenance works will be taking place on Wednesday April 28th 2011, between 11pm and midnight CET.
All VPS will automatically become available after the host-systems is back up.
We’re sorry for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding!
If you encounter any problems, please feel free to contact us either on our international freelines or directly at +43 316 827 500 300
mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

“Downloading Warez releases for yourself would be illegal, to have them not – so if a friend gives you a burned DVD it would be not illegal.
So “storage” of warez is not illegal, Downloading is.
Upload is always illegal.”
I guess if the files are illegal it’s not allowed, since you’ll need to seed (upload) and leech (download) ^_^, tracker probably okay though, but you should probably email them privately about this.
I would think 40 gigs a month wouldn’t get you far if you were passing files.
I would check for Switzerland instead of Austria (edis do CH), damn those EU laws
I was asking about indexing bittorrent files, not uploading files.
Do you know the current situation with this in Switzerland Sam?
Thanks :)
What situation :|
Hello all!
As many wanted to have it we added Debian 6 (Squeeze) in 32Bit (English) now – it can be installed in our control panel.
Greetings,
William
Is it possible for current customers to ask to pay anualy and to have the discount? Or do we have to start a new order?
Thanks!
Hi Antony,
if anybody here would be interested to switch over to annual payment, please send us an email with your request, mentioning your client-id and the *BESMART* coupon code.
You’ll be given the reduced price and you’ll be upgraded from 2 GB to 5 GB on the VPS SMART plans ;-))
Kind regards,
Gerhard @ EDIS
Damn… I paid 30e to get 10 months a bit before this offer and now… They really did that! Reduced price to one year payment and increased quota. All this in like 25 minutes after I mailed them.
Isn’t this nice from them?
Thank you Gerhard.
You are very welcome ;-))
please send your requests to sales@edis.at (forgot to mention before. sorry for that).
Gerhard
Ok, cool :)
And do you plan to have VPS SMART available in Switzerland?
Thanks!
VPS SMART will become available in Switzerland and Germany soon. We have to re-arrange HDD configuration in the production systems first – these are SSD-only systems now. Products in Germany and Switzerland will become available in a 2 months (max.) timeframe from now.
cheers,
Gerhard
Ok, nice.
And this will come with 16 cores or 1 core only?
Thanks!
VRS/VPS in Switzerland have 16 cores, not 1 – same as in Austria.
and Germany will be the same – 16 cores ;-)
Ok, I was referring to a user having only one core on the other thread.
Good that it did change though :)
Waiting for your swiss VPS SMART!
I also remember the thread about the one-core VPS in Switzerland.
All our production-systems are based on the same hardware / technology – that’s why it is most unlikely that the VPS only displayed one core ;-)
There is only one difference right now, which is the storage-backend. In Switzerland we currently have SSD only, but this will be changed soon.
As soon as we have the SAS backend running, we are also able to offer the smaller VPS plans in Switzerland and other countries as well.
@ALL
Question: in which countries would you in general be interested in (in terms of VPS) ?
cheers,
Gerhard
I would like to see more offers from up north. Denmark, Sweden, Lithuania. And down below, Greece, Spain, Italy.
However, I have good/great connectivity to all country’s from Belgium, so for me it doesn’t matter.
Maybe focus on Swiss and Austria location, expend it with KVM or XEN. TUN/TAP? :p
Hi!
This sounds very interesting. A KVM-based product is already in the production pipeline for Austria and will be launched soon. A beautiful industry-server with 24 cores and loads of RAM is already parked here ;-)
vserver based products will become available in Germany soon (on SAS and SSD subsystems). Switzerland will be expanded with SAS components soon to be able to provide the smaller vps plans (starting with smart vps). Italy is a very interesting market for us. Not only for VPS but also for virtual hosting and email-services. Within the next 6 months timeframe EDIS will be offering vps and virtual hosting from Milano (IT).
regards from Austria,
Gerhard
+1 for KVM, hope you make a nice deal for us LEB-users *wink wink* ;-)
The only thing that’s holding me back from signing up with you guys, is no ipv6, and no possibility (no TUN/TAP) to enable a tunnel on vserver, with KVM no problems anticipated.
I think going Italian will get you allot of customers, offer free pizza when taking a vps for one year!
Keep us informed please! :)
Austria, Switzerland are great locations, if you could do a Xen / KVM & tun/tap & *BSD available that would be really great!
As far as new locations go: Spain, Greece, Lithuania, Latvia, Letonia, Sweden…
Thanks anyway, great service so far!
@ExPl0Rer, I would also prefer some european location which isn’t germany/netherland/england, as it’s pretty easy to get vps on those locations. Switzerland with SAS will be interesting for LEB community for sure. I also never saw Italian vps hosting with affordable prices. And then Scandinavia (Denmark, Norway and Sweden). Finland… wishing something like that would be imho mission impossiblem so lets stick with Switzerland/SAS and Italy – that would be great.
In your neighbourhood are also Hungary and Slovenia with pretty decent connectivity.
@Explorer Austria and Switzerland are great locations, if you want to expand to new countries I would advise you to expand in your region in central europe. So probabbly Hungary, Slovenia maybe Slovakia and Czech Republic would be a good way to expand your business and theese countries are also near to your business. And they should have good connections too(mainly Hungary should have a decent network.). So basicly I agree with Spirit.
For Sweden have a look at http://www.swedendedicated.com, have a XEN VPS with them for a year already and works perfectly (with ipv6 too :-))
@dirk, my experience with swedendedicated/xema is terrible. I was with them more than a year but one day I woke up and my vps was gone. Terminated. They ignored my support tickets but I was stubborn and finally they said that I cancelled it however when I requested proof (cancellation mail – whmcs also log cancellation confirmation but in this case it didn’t exist) they wasn’t able to give any, neither say sorry…
They never explained what really happened with my vps, it’s just gone and they didn’t even care.
Well then I was/am lucky ….
Wow, weird. Did you have a big VPS with them?
Did they have any reason to shut you down?
I was thinking to go with them for a VPS in SE..
No, they never admitted it. After noticed downtime I opened support ticket which was unanswered per days. Then I sent text message to their phone and got replay to ticket immediately:
They said that I requested cancellation. (am I nuts?) But when I requeded a proof as WHMC mail section didn’t have “vps cancellation mail” they wasnt able to give any. They sticked with their “you cancelled it” story and finally I got refund (partial refund). The thing which pissed me off here is their (or better his – I think that there is only one person) cold, unprofesional approach without even a bit of regret disregarding the fact that he know that user wasn’t logged into their system some longer time to even request cancellation. You can’t fool WHMCS as this thing save VPS cancellation confirmation mail under users mail menu. Well.. there wasn’t any. Not even a sign about cancellation. VPS was just erased…
They’re also above the allowed price range for this site. More than doubled actually.
http://www.lowendbox.com/about/
euh they have a VPS at 5 euro already…..(http://www.swedendedicated.com/vps.html)
*sigh* Another provider that can;t keep their website together and their information correct.
Front page says “Starting from €15/month” and I assumed that was correct. That’s as far as I went as I’m on battery, checking on an overheating server and am late for a volunteer gig.
Sorry for the trouble. I assumed that this webhost would have it’s act together since it was being suggested and recommended so highly.
Yes, I;m in a bad mood. Please excuse me.
@drmike:
http://www.lowendbox.com/blog/swedendedicated-15-euro3-months-xenvmware-vps/
:)
Thanks but I would think that they would promote it on the front page of their website.
Oh well….
Yeah, let’s stick with EDIS.AT – the host we really like – in this thread :)
No, you can’t make me. :P
And you have no idea how late I was….
What about a super promo for the new London based VPS? :-)
Hi Francisco,
we’ll be releasing a nice promo here on lowendbox. Will happen most likely after the weekend, so stay tuned ;-))
cheers,
Gerhard
How far you’re from lowend Switzerland? :)
Hi!
Switzerland still needs to be updated in terms of hdd subsystem.
As soon as this is done, we’ll be releasing a promo for the babies in switzerland too.
btw: the kvm based product for Austria will soon be rolled out …
best wishes,
Gerhard
Any idea when you will have ipv6 in Switzerland and/or Austria?
and XEN too :D
IPv6 @ EDIS, Austria will be available by the end of 2011 (late Q4)
IPv6 @ EDIS, Switzerland might be available soon
IPv6 @ EDIS, UK will be available within 4 weeks timeframe
@Sam: we are not going to offer XEN based products, but will release a product based on KVM hardware layer virtualization soon.
greetz,
Gerhard
Any KVM release news?
We are almost done with the product. Final testing tomorrow. More news sooooon ;-)
Gerhard
Good! I will certainly sign-up!
Everything going according to your plans ?
Good morning from Austria,
a quick update from EDIS on the latest developments:
SWITZERLAND: ALL VPS plans are available in Switzerland with immediate effect – there are no more SSD-only limitations!
ENGLAND: ALL hdd based VPS are no available in London (located at Telehouse West in the London Docklands)
ITALY: We are still negotiating with premium serverhousing companies, but will be definitely only this summer.
KVM: We are still working on the product, but will soon be able to launch.
cheeers,
Gerhard
+1 ! :)
The bandwidth is quiet low.. 40 GB.. other providers provide like 150GB + of bandwidth :( but on the other hand.. they have some awesome locations :)
Hi Shark!
we thought that this information might be of interest to you:
EDIS doubled the included bandwidth on all VPS plans today (Austria, Switzerland and UK)
SMART hosting has been upgraded from 40 GB/moth to 100 GB/month.

How long does it normally take to get the login details after ordering?
Hi Harold,
after placing the order, we deliver within 10 to 45 minutes.
During the night (Europe) it will take until the next morning and then we provision all the orders.
Did you already place your order? I could not find any Harold in our database … ;-)
cheers,
Gerhard
Hi Gerhard, I´ve purchased a KVM premium box about 3 hours ago and still no SSH credentials.

Hello from EDIS
just wanted you to know that we will be launching webhosting and VPS (vserver) directly from the heart of Italy => Milano on Wednesday Sept. 7th 2011
Cheers,
Gerhard
Good news! What AS?
@Francisco:
i3B / AS39912
@Jan Schlemminger:
We will offer Germany (FFM) in some weeks too.
test ip for italy, please
What about hosting in germany?
tested your 100mb file @ austria and had mediocre results (~5mb/s) while downloading from FFM is blazing fast.
london would be interesting too but 100mbit for 200 VPS is in my opinion… ah well… i don’t host any big files but i think that it could limit with so much nodes.
trying to answer, but seem to be blocked from Moscow … odd!!
and funny enough, this one worked *smile*
Trying to post in blocks …
I’m not sure if we already posted this. I think William sent something to LEB admins almost 2 months ago but the offer has not been published so far.
Nevermind. Our VPS are available in Frankfurt (Germany) for a while now ;-)
We are hosting directly on the DECIX – the fastest internet exchange on this lovely planet (!)
With these ping-times you see the mushrooms popping out of the soil right in front of you:
A bunch of garden-fresh CPU cores are awaiting you ;-)
number of processor cores: 24
model name : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5649 @ 2.53GHz
cache size : 12288 KB per CPU
We don’t oversell!
Enough RAM to cache almost everything, reducing disk-I/O to a necessary minimum to maximize your vps-experience!
*** LEB PROMO ***
VRS SMART plan
VPS with 256 MB RAM
24 shared cores on Dual Intel E5649 (@2.53 GHz)
2 GB HDD (5 GB with promo-code)
1 IP address
100 GB bandwidth per month
Customizable firewall via webinterface
=> http://en.edis.at/vrs-smart_38_82.htm
TEST-IP: 149.154.159.1
USE the promo-code “BESMART” to receive 5 GB HDD instead of the regular 2 GB ;-)
This offer is (as usual) valid on all other VRS SMART plans in all available locations.
Please mind, that the promo-code is NOT VALID on other vps plans.
Cheers,
Gerhard
Hi guys!
Just in case you did not read it on twitter or facebook: EDIS >>DOUBLED<< included bandwidth on all VRS and KVM plans.
This also affects already existing contracts with immediate effect. Merry pre-Christmas ;-)
details you'll find here … http://en.edis.at/virtual-root-server_82.htm
cheers,
Gerhard
Hi guys!
Just in case you did not notice yet … we changed our VPS billing system to whmcs … this means: realtime invoicing, online paypal billing, no more stupid cancellation times, more convenience for you and for us … and, (I almost forgot the mention that) an easy to use shopping cart for our VPS ;-) YEAH!
https://manage.edis.at/whmcs/
Thank you very much to all of you – YOU are the driving force behind these developments ;-)
Cheers,
Gerhard @ EDIS
