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 still don’t understand how Rock Hill can have a datacenter when they can’t even get their roads paved:
http://www.heraldonline.com/2011/03/24/2933994/paving-plans-for-country-road.html
I’d be happy if they would just trim the greenery along the roads I walk. There are actually 2 datacenters in Rock Hill, the one I work at which is near downtown and been here about 15 years, and a new one opened recently near our regional airport.
Very stable node, attractive plan and most of all Tim is very active and helpful in support tickets. Definitely a must have VPS :)
*I wish there will be more KVM providers on LEB*
I have had awesome experiences with Hostigation!
Their servers are insanely fast and the support is personal and very good!
Props to Tim for creating competition for the other top tier Low End Hosts!
Here’s a benchmark of my 1 GB LA KVM:

I’m not that lucky :(
I’ve just order my 2nd from them
By the way, I think the test ip for Rock Hill is 216.189.8.101
I cannot ping the 216.189.1.101 ip, may be its my ISP or may be it should be the same as my subnet (216.189.8.*)
Asim, I can ping the I.P. Thanks.
[root@kvm02 ~]# host lowendvps.hostigation.com
lowendvps.hostigation.com has address 216.189.1.101
It’s a VPS I made at the start of the year on OpenVZ with LEA’s script running WP in 64mb but if you are having issues pinging it, 216.189.1.2 is a shared hosting server with 400+ days of uptime so it usually is up.
Rock Hill, SC KVM (Node: KVM02):
Great ping time from my house. (I’m less than 50 miles from Rock Hill, SC)

After having virtio enabled
Sadly I’ve ordered a very similiar VPS (128MB/Xen) yesterday with CityNet Host for the same price. Unfortunately the didn’t set it up in almost 20 hours. :(
You also wont be most happy with their constant downtimes and support incompetency. This one would be most likely better choice.
I second Spirit. Hostigation is a nice choice
I’ve ordered a VPS from this offer and I’m installing the OS through VNC right now. Thanks Spirit and Asim for your advices.
About CityNet Host, more than 24 hours has passed and no reply from them. I’m gonna ask for a refund (if they answer at all).
I third it! Its really amazing he can offer these for $3.
I hope to see a review by 96MB.com on this offer :)
Awesome support for excellent KVM servers. I recently needed to submit a support ticket when buying my third Hostigation server at 1 a.m. Tim was helping me 5 minutes later. The man does not sleep!
I sleep a lot! But I’m 47, so I get up at odd hours to use the toilet, never hurts to check tickets then too. I catch up at work on my sleep ;)
it’s great for your customers if you have to use toilet many times at night. :)
Just got one, setup was less than 30 mins. Comes with Debian 6 minimal net install waiting in your cd drive. Use the SolusVM console to install dropbear than ssh in like normal. Server up and running my babo servers in less than 1 hour from ordering. 2 Hours in I am impressed. Hope I can say the same 6 months from now.
Do you have plans to restock LA location?
Parts were ordered today actually for another LA KVM node, a new KVM node was brought online in SC last night and a new OpenVZ node today in SC as well, both running CentOS 6 so the OpenVZ plans include Vswap instead of burst ram now, but I am still working through an issue with ip6tables on the node, so IPv6 is not functioning on new OpenVZ in Rock Hill. I’ve also removed a couple of the larger stock in LA and replenished with the 128mb so you can order a 128mb KVM in LA currently, and the new node should be online in LA by the end of next week since transit times from the East Coast are a killer.
Very interesting. I have previously been looking at how vswap works — how OpenVZ actually artificially slow down the access when your memory pages go into “virtual swap”. Not much info available on the net, so I guess I might have to dig into the source.
Maybe one day we can all say good buy to UBC :)
virtio enable?
Once you have your VPS in a state where you have no need to change anything virtio can be enabled, but the custom config has some issues that once it is enabled, the client no longer has the ability to change anything changeable. It’s a little more complex then that, but I am more then willing to enable it as long as you have little need to mount CD’s or change the boot order or VNC password.
Ordered one and (seems to be) instantly activated. May I ask, where will be the OpenVZ VPS’ located?
OpenVZ is located in Rock Hill SC
So no OVZ in LA right?
Not at this time
I can not reload the os centos :(
You need to mount OS and then change the boot order to CD. After doing this use VNC to reload your OS.
@Mr.z you are not alone in having this issue, take a look at https://hostigation.com/wiki/index.php?title=KVM:Install and it will guide you through preparing your instance to install the OS or reload the OS
One word…wow. Let this test speak for itself:
This is a $3/mo plan in case you forgot. I am blown away…
While I originally had some miscommunication with the owner Tim due to MaxMind raising multiple flags for my signup, he was ultimately very helpful in getting things set up (1 minute response times from the owner of the company is pretty damn impressive imo).
I’ll likely be upgrading my account to the 1GB $15/mo plan torwards the end of my term.
Saw this too late, the LA ones went out of stock. Anyone signed up on Rock Hill mind providing me a link to a 10MB file on your server for testing the download speed from Asia?
http://tiger.d3vm.net/10mb.test
thanks for providing the test link :)
I also miss my 3rd LA Hostiga-LEB too.
So I try this 3rd in SC (it seems this is not performant as of LA):
Testfile:
http://216.189.1.233/testfile/1gb.tmp
http://216.189.1.233/testfile/200mb.tmp
Connection to Asia is about 100ms plus, in comparaison to LA nodes.
(I try to stress this box with all installation of Bind9, Apache2, MySQL, FTPd ==> about 80MB RAM used / 128MB)

The huge ping time is expected, I just wanted to make sure it does provide stable and good connection speed to Asian countries (especially China) as I currently have one VPS in South Bend which fails on that.
@HLC: are you from Heilongjang ?
The datacenter in Los Angeles, QuadraNet has peering with HiNet Taiwan which I’m learning most of Asia passes though, I’m not sure, but I’ve heard more praises then complaints about this connectivity.
I have about 20 VPS, the mine in your LA node is among of ones having the fastest connection to Asia.
While tracerouting to SC node, it seems the Asia end-point is Hong Kong, and then -> Cogentco -> Hostiga SC.
For LA node, Asia end-point seems to be HK too, and then -> NLayer -> Quadranet -> Hostiga LA.
@VPS OFFERS: No
Aside from a reference to Dialpoint Comms., I don’t see any “About Us”, “Terms & Conditions”, etc.? I’d like to know these “little” things before I go into business with someone.
TOS is located at http://hostigation.com/tos.html what else would you like to know?
Thanks, and your replies to other posts have answered my own questions :) Much appreciated!
And the last time I turned an outstanding account over to collections was 1996, and instead suspend service instead. The bad will from collections is not worth the few dollars they will never collect. But since I do sell dedicated servers and have customers with hundreds of dollars worth of service each month, I reserve the right at least.
If you click cancel of your service in WHMCS it offers you the option of immediate or end of billing cycle and sends the confirmation receipt. Is there some reason to point out a fairly standard policy? I mean if a bill is paid, great, if it isn’t, no harm on a VPS, it gets suspended quick enough and deleted quickly after and can be resold.
I do not intend to terminate my VPS’s at yours. Just be curious about cancellation by writing. However, it’s clear for me now, as you said about termination via whmcs.
@Tim: There are 2 IPv6 addresses for each KVM box. Is the second assigned permanently or just a tempo?
Playing with the auto-configuration feature of IPv6 and since KVM is a bridged interface it hears what the router is announcing about IPv6. Since I have millions of IPv6, keep it, ask for reverse DNS for it if you like, and I will take it out of the pool in SolusVM so it can never get assigned to anyone else, but I doubt it would anyway. If you need more IPv6, just ask for it anytime.
Perhaps I’ll request its assignment to take it controlled or stop it auto-configured to avoid unawareness from its existence. Thanks for clarification.
what is their IPv6 test?
maybe this one -> 2001:470:855b::1
Doesn’t look native (he.net tunnel) CMIIW
2607:fcd0:100:c21::ecd7:1a2c is a nameserver in LA on QuadraNet provided native IPv6, which only seems to ever route over HE.net, so all you tunnel haters, suck it! 2001:470:855b::/48 is HE.net space we’ve used for years in St Louis and migrated it to LA, and yes, it is a tunnel that is 8ms away from the source. Y’all need to get over the mental malfunction about IPv6 tunnels. :)
“Y’all need to get over the mental malfunction about IPv6 tunnels.”
Oh, really? It’s not just about that and opposite – your comment looks at IPv6 somehow naive limited. I am pretty sure that if we would talk about IPv4 free public available block for everyone without personal identification or limitations you would understand impact of such free IPv4 range for daily internet services usage (blocks, bans, spamlists..)
I know atleast one service (one of oldest and biggest irc networks) where is whole 2001:470 public free /32 HE prefix blocked because too many abuse. Why people abuse HE tunnels but then again not as example SixXS? Because opening every new and another and another… 2001:470::/32 tunnel require minute of work while SixXS require some work, personal datas, etc..
With more wider IPv6 usage we will see even more of those things, and that’s just one example.
I don’t see much difference between free public available tunnel 2001:470 and not so public available native 2607:fcd0.. in term of performace as both are more or less still HE but difference is that I can’t use 2001:470 for my aim as I would use native IPv6 (as I explained above). You should looks at those things wider… it’s always some reason why part of population prefer something above other.
Well, my 2001:530::/32 space took far more then a minute to setup with an HE tunnel as we speak BGP over that tunnel. You are saying a lot of things, but only one thing is being apparent here, that you don’t want 2001:470::/32 space. Even the 2001:470:855b::/48 space I have is easy to figure out who is using it from the public info displayed since I delegated the rDNS for it to the hostigation nameservers. If EFNet or Undernet wish to bury their heads in the sand, and block all of the HE space, that is there choice, and I’m guessing you are referring to one of them as they are the oldest IRC networks left. But lets get back to native/tunneled IPv6, that is not your real issue, it is you do not want 2001:470::/32 space, and not all tunneled space is in that range.
Oh, gosh… I believe that I fairly explained to you why and where I can’t use your tunnel but I can use native IPv6.
Is this that hard to understand? Does this makes me IPv6 tunnel hater as I can’t find HE tunnel, which by coincidence all tunneled LEB featured hosts use, as useful as native IPv6?
And yes, you’re right, all tunnels aren’t 2001:470::/32 but that’s not some real argument as long more or less all tunneled hosts use 2001:470::/32.
*side note: IRCnet is way older and bigger than Undernet.
Not all tunnels being is 2001:470::/32 is a real argument since my HE tunnel in Rock Hill is using 2001:530::/32 space. please help me understand what you are trying to get across if I am wrong in my understanding that you do not want 2001:470::/32 or do you not want HE tunneled IPv6 even if it is other space.
Since I was on the Undernet r-com in 1995-1997, how much older can IRCnet realy be since the commercial internet didn’t really start until 1992ish
I know that my english isn’t perfect but I believe that I was very clear when I expressed my opinion so what actually isn’t clear to you? What do you think that it needs further argument?
I fairly explained you that your term “tunnel haters” isn’t appropriate as there could be always some good reason why individual person prefer native IPv6 over tunneled IPv6 and give you one simple example why I personaly prefer native IPv6 over tunneled which is in most cases same old 2001:470::/32 but you’re still stubborn refusing to accept that your judgement about other people needs and usage might be wrong.
So let me try again, yes I prefer native IPv6 more than tunneled because in most cases (read again: most cases) with tunneled IPv6 I get 2001:470::/32 which can be in some cases as I explained above for my usage limitating.
And regarding IRC I merely corrected your wrong assuming regarding “they are the oldest IRC networks left” misinformation.
I hope that we clarified – if not, take some time and read my resposnes above a bit more carefully. Thanks.
Spirit – I’m not trying to argue with you at all, I’m trying to understand why you feel like you do, and what I’ve understood is you don’t like either HE tunnels or HE IPv6 space, but you have yet to clarify which, so I can’t review your previous posts for something you have yet to answer. I made a statement based on many people preferring native IPv6, when it is turning out that the basis for this is HE IPv6 space is banned many places. My HE tunneled IPv6 in Rock Hill is outside of HE IPv6 space, so I get frustrated at the no tunnel, when the real meaning is no HE IPv6 space.
Now, onto IRCnet as I had not heard of this network, so I found a wiki about them http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRCnet and realize they did not exist yet when I was on routing-com with the Undernet.
Continuing problems with performance and abuse eventually led to the rise of another major IRC network, Undernet, which split off in October 1992.
Between May and July 1996 IRCnet was formed as a European fork of EFnet, when a number of operator disagreements resulted in a group of European admins declaring their independence. The reasons for the “Great Split”[4] as it came to be called
Heh, Tim, Tim… you still have things to learn, young padawan. You’re IRC user sine 2000 or so but you never hard for IRCnet? That’s amazing :-) Even I heard for smaller Undernet more than decade and half ago…
IRCnet is considered as first/original IRC network which even after big split in 1996 keeped FIRST IRC SERVER EVER (Oulu/Finland). And not only that – it also keeped original network IRCd coder – all others, even good old Efnet network with (imho superiror) ratbox IRCd is only variation of old and original IRC(net) IRCd.
A bit more from times when this Oulu (yes, european IRCnet server) thing was born http://www.irc.org/history_docs/jarkko.html in 1988 and some things from sad big split betweem american and european http://www.irc.org/history_docs/TheGreatSplit.html in 1996.
Is somehow hard to dispute IRCnet status as some of those servers are there since beginnning of IRC. And even in this moment you can see some respective nowaday IRCnet stats http://irc.netsplit.de/networks/top100.php above Undernet stats (to justify also my “one of biggest” not only “one of oldest” IRC networks). Interesting, a? :) This old dinosaur is still alive and kicking.
Sorry for all typos above – my text seems terrible now when I read it again. It was written in hurry.
Well, history is defined by those writing the history books, and I looked at a wiki, which is usually a good source for a quick understanding, and the way it is presented there seemed plausible, that EFnet split from the un-named IRC network to avoid 1 server, and this was the birth of the first named network, then came Underent in 1992 and IRCnet split from EFnet in 1996. Also, if you look in the Undernet archives, my server was linked to the network in 1995, so get off my lawn :) I don’t like the picture they painted of why I delinked my servers but I do remember I did rage quit, just not for the reasons in the history books, but then again, I didn’t write it, so I didn’t get to define it. Which is bigger, I really don’t care. Which came first, again, I really don’t care. My interests have moved on to other things and idling in BuyVM’s IRC is plenty of entertainment value for me.
And that’s all what I get to broaden one’s mind :/
Simple “thank you” would do it too! :)
I am also a user of IRC and I dislike HE.net tunnels generally because of all the abuse committed by people
on 2001:470::/32. I think this is what Spirit is also trying to get across. 2001:470::/32 is banned (or severely limited) by IRC servers and then banned by many channel operators due to abuse.
Native IPV6 is typically outside of this range and not banned everywhere.
I would consider a VPS that offered tunneled ipv6 outside of the 2001:470::/32 block if it had a good reputation and was in a good DC, but would prefer
native ipv6 ;0
Well you see, I would be willing to consider an overall less attractive VPS offer IF ONLY it had IPv6, over another even a better one with IPv4-only, but… if the first service is just on a HE tunnel, I might as well get the second offer and run the tunnel myself from my VPS! So what’s the point.

is it possible to take the monthly package first then change to annual package later?
Anytime you wish to change from monthly to annual, write a support ticket and the change will be made for your next billing cycle.
all the la kvm vps (128,256,512) are out of stocks…
when will you be adding new ones?
Parts are arriving daily for a new LA node and I should have everything by the end of the week and will 3 day it to the DC for a hopeful middle of next week restock.
does the offer still apply on the new la nodes?
What offer? These our the everyday prices.
Excuse me, they are the everyday prices.
great, hope to hear from you on the new servers soon!
is it possible to purchase SC first and then migrate to LA with no extra charges?
Sure, there are a few waiting to migrate as space opens up, but there is no charge to move between the two locations
Might be a bit too late, but for those of you who are interested in the Hostigation’s LA node performance, here is another 96MB Low End VPS review for Hostigation:
http://www.96mb.com/96mb-low-end-vps-review-part-xiv-hostigation/
Can OPENVPN or similar be installed?
For KVM and OpenVZ yes, with KVM you can do anything you could do on a stand alone server, it is fully virtual.
It’s great for a 128MB RAM box, being able to run full LAMP. :)
Waiting for other LA nodes.
los Angeles has been restocked and now taking orders for as long as they last.
order one. Instant active .
UPS Tracking Follow the bouncing node :)
:) Quel humeur !
What DC?
Quadranet
Gotcha. For some reason I thought I asked that before but I couldn’t find it anywhere.
On an unrelated note, you work at the data center in Rock Hill, SC right? As an actual employee and not strictly for Hostigation right?
Correct’ish, I’m a contractor, not an employee
Oh ok. Mind if I contact you outside of LEB/LET? Got some questions about the DC you’re at if you don’t mind (we’re looking for possible a DR site and being a current Hostigation client I’m liking the speed from my VPS with you to SD’s servers).
Sure, grill me all you like
Tell us when you’re done with Hostigation
I’ve been doing this for 5+ years now as Hostigation with no plans other then to grow moderately and hopefully find 1 more person to help me when the time comes that has a clue and is good with people as well. So when I’m done with Hostigation? Well, if someone walked up and handing me large sacks of cash, I’m sure I could be convinced, but I don’t see that as likely.
I see the machine already arrived
I’ll give you 3 sacks of monopoly money. :)
Got a refund some hours after i placed my order with them. Used Paypal, like i do with every provider out here and I’m yet to find why my order was marked as fraudulent…
@Edmilson The only reason I would refund an order is MaxMind raises a number of red flags, in your case, the distance between you and your address, the city not being found, and unfortunately the country you are from. Every provider is going to have a country they see more fraud from then any other, you just happen to be in a country that is our bane and most troublesome, so orders are very rarely accepted from there do to the high amount of fraud we have seen generated from there.
Now, we do see more fraud generated from the US as a number, but as a percentage of orders, your country is the highest, almost 90% which is terrible as I’m sure the people there in general are like most all over the world, but I’ve had my fill of bad luck and when you sell a $3-$10 account and turn around and give not only that plus a $10 surcharge back, it stings.
Thanks for the reply. Not totally happy, but nice to see what was my problem.
May I know which country? I’m curious, 90% is really big.
Sorry for the late reply circus. I’m brazilian.
not bad
Very good. I love Hostigation :) .

recommended,
currently out of stock for KVM-128 :(
here is result from openvz vps :
This is not instant activation?
How long do you have to wait?
Mine was pretty instant, maybe because of timezone.
I think it’s manual activation, but there was only 5 min and 12 seconds between the invoice payment email and the setup email.
Just wonder in how long KVM LA will be re-stocked?
It is looking like at least 2-3 weeks before parts are bought for a new LA node. But small amounts of stock are added daily to KVM as some give up their VPS as it wasn’t for them for whatever reason, mostly they bought more VPS then they can use is what I see.
Hey Tim, hostigation.com is not working!
“AWBS License Error: Unable to validate license.”
Is there something going on?
BTW, the OPZ node is 100% normal, Just the website not working.
But it scared me a bit.
hostigation.com is not working! –> for me as well and ovz02 rockhill seems down (I’m on this node)
http://hostigation.com/billing/announcements.php
Your node got UPS problem. I am sure Tim is looking into it as he put it on the announcement.
Yes, I have seen annoucement but this is for 2-3 days ago which I think Tim already fixed but now happen again. I already submitted ticket for 5-6 hours. He might sleeping as It’s about 3-4 AM T T
http://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/205/hostigation-down#Item_10
I discussed the issues in detail here, but everything has been resolved this morning now, and containers are restarting on node ovz02
SC
LA
..it can go 220MB/s+ without virtio… ..amazing…
10+ :)
@Tim maybe some Europe location, next? :D
Without virtio? o_O
yea :p
Weird, isn’t virtio supposed to help?
He means those results above are without virtio enabled :P
ext4 seems to scream like a bat out of hell in KVM without virtio, enable virtio and you’ll commonly see mid 200’s. I played around a few hours last week with SolusVM 1.8 R1 before a major bug prompted me to revert, but the new virtio disk and network make life much better for everyone, if only the client side of that was an option to enable to allow them to do it themselves without a ticket.
It sure is funny to see these VM’s getting better IO then the host node can achieve, I know I enabled virtio for someone in LA with Debian 6 who used ext4 and they are consistently getting 230-270MB/sec when they preform the test.
Yes it helps, but who needs virtio, with results like that… :D
Performance wise, hostigation eats my linode, hetzner & turnkey internet vps for breakfast…

Um, Tim. Is that your picture on your site?
Looks like the site got updated.
You’ve met me, you should know that it is.
Thank maxexcloo for the update
hahaha.. nice site :D
With all the uncertainty of AlertPay for the past month, I’ve added Amazon Simple Payments so this and Google Checkout are options while AlertPay gets their act together.
Whats wrong with alert pay? I have not read much but I know its not allowing bank withdraws just by check and wire?
Nobody seems to be able to use a Visa/Mastercard with AlertPay, only American Express, and trust me, you can leave home without it. I did find that you can not do an ACH to your bank in the US today as well, but a check will work just as well, too bad the fee is $4 for a check. I don’t have high hopes for Amazon payments either since the 1st to try to use it has the charge pending, and they say they have purchased from Amazon in the past without issue with the card they used.
Hello people, somebody know the performance of FreeBSD under KVM?
I get request timeouts when pinging 96.44.154.41. What are the reasons or implications of this?
Vps down with solusvm panel too :(
Got an openVZ-256/512 with Hostigation and so far I’m loving it. Haven’t experienced any downtime or complications [aside from the usual centOS frustations ;)]
I have a vps with hostigation 256MB OpenVZ- Los Angeles- CA for a year , i’m very busy and i don’t using it, anyone interested email me.

I asked about a 6 hour downtime and this is the response I got.
“Downtime happens, if you are going to bust my chops over it, please find a host that will better meet your needs.”
I have had good service, but lately after the move to the new data centre at Charlotte things aren’t going so great and a response like this, surely made me wanna look somewhere else.
Please do look someplace else then, you submitted 4 or 5 ticket responses in a few minutes flat after being told exactly what you needed to know. But no, you run here to post instead of reading what is here before your very eyes, including a link to the announcements. That response was not you asking a simple question, it was after you were badgering me. It’s not even a case of two sides to this story, you left out half of the story.
I have been with Hostigation for about 3 months – superb performance, fast network connection and fast support (actually used for billing and order questions which speaks for itself for the high quality). I’m using OVZ-256 plan.
Hostigation is one of the very few hosts that impressed me. I hope to see Europe based offer from them in the future!
Guess what? I have 7 Vpses from Hostigation. =P
No doubt for Hostigation becoming one of the best provider in vps service.
Vpses are fast, no delay, speed
Tim is very nice and replying fast to the ticket.
I am adding an LAX to my collection – will post on quality soon – sure it will be good.
Order submitted 4 hours ago and no activation nor response. I am not upset though, just not instant activation. Reasonable though, I run web services too and don’t offer it either.
Will update as progress comes in.
Box is now up. No problems so far, service seems golden.
LOL.
I’m going to get a KVM from Hostigation. Which location is better for me? Los Angeles or Rock Hill? Most of my visitors are from US…
