Janos, can I know what is your VPS CPU I/O?
Hi,
What are you mean under CPU I/O?
Sorry. I mean by disc I/O. Tell me the result here
dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=64k count=16k conv=fdatasync
and what is the download speed of the vps?
Hi,
From 200-300 MByte/s, depending on server IO load.

Hello,
IF anybody have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask it!
The webhosting, email hosting or reseller hosting services used by the Subscriber will be limited, suspended or canceled immediately and without notice if some or all of these conditions are
encountered:
Execute long-running, stand-alone, unattended server-side processes, bots or daemons
Run any type of web spiders or indexers
Run any software that interfaces with an IRC (Internet Relay Chat) network
Run, host, or store any P2P client, tracker, software, server, files, content or application,
including bittorrent
Participate in any P2P or file-sharing networks
…
So I think the post description is misleading when it consider this as a good option for torrent server.
This part basically applied for shared hosting, not for VPS.
How about torrenting/transmission and DMCA and it’s European equivalents?
Its allowed.
DMCA Fully Ignored ?
Hi,
Yes, we ignoring it (but we forward it to our clients).
why would they respond to DMCA? they are based in HUNGARY not the united states.
Because most stuff that DMCA would send a message to likely also violates Hungarian copyright laws, just a guess
In this case need to refer Hungarian law, not for DMCA. And not, DMCA stricter than local act of copyright.
What about additional traffic costs?
Hi,
Its depending how many need, and need only one time or permanently.
If you find our services to be pathetic, do not hesitate to use digitalocean
Thank you.
lol?
Can I order the BU-200 and upgrade to BU-400 at the poasted rate if I like the service? Or am i stuck on what i order at first.
You can upgrade it, and discount will be applyed to the new package also.
What is a cpu unit? How does this compare to the other storage offers in here in terms of $ per gb
Hi,
Cpuunit is a metric how many cpu time allocated to the VPS: https://openvz.org/Resource_shortage#cpuunits
That number is pointless without knowing the total allocated. What is the total allocated? This is basically just a percent of the total as I understand it…
This value is a relative limit (ratio), not an absolute limit. VPS with more CPU unit give more CPU time.
are there more storage plans or it’s just those two?
Hi,
Yes: https://my.mikrovps.hu/cart.php?gid=25
About availability, what is your sla?
Hi,
For OpenVZ SLA is 99,9% (http://www.mikrovps.com/vps/openvz).
Is TUN & PPTP available for these offers?
Thank you
Hi,
Yes off course, you can enable tun/tap and ppp on SolusVM control panel.
Is this the first openvz offer with cpu unit limit? What happens if you go beyond?
Hi,
This is not cpu limit, its cpu units. Cpu limit is a hard, absolute cpu limit, but cpu unit only a relative value, to determine what process will have cpu time first (but, in normal case node are not overloaded, so process not need to compete with each other): https://openvz.org/Resource_shortage#CPU
why the heck you are adding 27.00% tax with every invoice?
VAT are based on your country, if you properly set your client profiles, what are removed, or changed based on your local VAT rate.
Your server is in Hungary, so how would you handle requests from countries like the U.S. that serve secret orders to snoop on servers and e-mail?
Hi,
Local privacy law doesn’t allow this, so US authority don’t give anything.
Coupon LEB50VPS no longer working?
Sorry, my bad. It works! :D
It looks like you keep root passwords in the clear. Do you think this is wise?
We don’t store the root password, it only sended out in the mail. This is not good, but many user require it. You can change your password after that with regular passwd command.
I’ve been on the OpenVZ deal for a few days and it’s been working out nicely so far.
The site UI is clean, intuitive and renders nicely, plus the crypto is also up-to-date (TLS 1.2) and there’s a nice selection of distros (including minimal builds) for those of us who like to keep things simple.
I managed to hit a snag signing up because of aggressive anti-abuse mechanisms but my support ticket was responded to fast (first thing Sunday morning) and everything was soon sorted out.
Download speeds to N. America has been between 450-1200kbps but I’ve seen some 2000+ as well so it is virtually as performant as an NL server. The option to pay with Bitcoin is the cherry on top, all things considered the deal is great value for the price :)
Is the code still valid? It doesn’t seem to apply for me.
Hi,
Yes, it’s valid, but high storage VPS plans are runned out from stock.
Why you charge me AFA?
ÁFA @ 27.00%: $3.30
I am not from a country where AFA belongs. And I can not sing-up for an account without commanding in order to ticket a tax disabling action
Hi,
All WHMCS working on this way… When you choose your country, WHMCS will be recalculate the VAT based on your country. If you are living outside from EU you don’t need to pay Vat.
I am having trouble placing order. All my orders are marked as “fraud”.
Maybe you using fake address or using proxy, etc. Contact with support.
Is this offer still good?
Yes.
I tried to order one, but I get a message saying “The promotion code you entered has been applied to your cart but no items qualify for the discount yet – please check the promotion terms”.
Are you choosed the right billing period? These promo codes valid only for Quarterly.

I got one of the storage ones to do light torrenting on, really just to make my life easier.
Perfectly happy with it, but then I had no expectations, just wanted it to work and let me do stuff. Got other vps’s before to muck around on and they where torture, couldnt even compile curl on one of them, you couldn’t do anything.
Im no linux person (gawd noooo) so took a bit to get something working, but this…
https://github.com/dannyti/sboxsetup
…works like an efn champ!
Dont know how to do speed tests but one big thing I got was getting a rough average of 8.9meg a second down and when downing about 2meg up and when not downing it went to 4.8meg for a while before I stopped it. Have no idea if thats good but quite a bit more than I need. One install that I did earlier of rtorrent with a different tutorial (to buggy) was downloading at 20+meg a second, but I had to stop it as it stopped working all the time (that other script is solid). Got the whole 16.8gig in less than half an hour, didnt time it, was cooking. Havent downed much else yet (still to much fun mucking with it) so cant say much more on that.
For just under 4US bucks a month with 200gig and the freedom to muck around (learning a bunch!) Im really happy with it so far.
50% recurring, life-time discount with the promo code LEB50VPS.
