I was trying to stop and restart VNC server yesterday on my leeware server, but I don't know it stopped in between and from that I am not able to connect to my server, neither by putty nor by Web UI. I have emailed Lee about my problem, but he just doesn't reply. It is more than 1 day now.

I am able to ping the server, but I can't connect using putty. It gives a message 'Network error: Connection refused'.

I think lee is about to loose a lot of business.

Yeah I have been hearing a lot of problems about this lately, mine was down two nights ago and it came back up yesterday afternoon.

If you need Lee to reboot your server you need to send an email to [email protected] with the subject line in the following syntax:
sys-id-xx-xxx [reboot | help | <any other issue>]

The sys-id can be found in your welcome email, normally a simple [reboot] will get your server up and running again in about 6-12 hours. If your running Torrent software or a VNC server on it, remember that you'll need to log in again and start them up.

From what I hear Lee does this as a second job, so be patient.

Also, you get what you pay for...remember that. But unfortunately I too may switch over to Leaseweb after this month, the bad uptimes and not-so-great speeds are almost not even worth the low price point.

A whole week uh?
He always gets back to me within a day...thats a shame mate, may want to consider a different provider....

Leaseweb has base dedicated servers for 40 a month and no setup fee. I hear the speeds are the best you can ask for + an 80 gig HD (big improvement over Leeware), the issue is you only get 500 gigs a month bandwith, and if you go over it you pay (I think) around 50 cents a gig

But you can do a lot with 500 gigs :D

Leeware is %$%$%?$?%$!!! :angry:

He just restarted my VPS and 5 minutes later, same problem, the network connection is lost... damn....!

i was only running utorrent (with 1 torrent uploading at 100k/s) and kde desktop.

is that too much for this hosting?

good thing people are getting pissed at leeware, cause then everyone will leave, it won't be overloaded, and other people will have great stability and speeds ;)

im not getting pissed, i was expecting it from reading up here...you get what u pay for prettymuch and right now its what i can afford. Honstly my upload isnt that great at home so im sure it'll be worth it, ive made worse purchases with $20

what happens when it goes down? will it come back up or does he have to do something manually

KFlint

Running KDE is a bad idea, your wasting RAM and HD space, especially if your just running uTorrent
