Server rentals :: NFOservers.com

I'm not sure which name servers you're referring to, because name servers shouldn't need to be set inside our control panel -- they're set at the registrar for the domain name, and should point to us. Please do open that support request so that we can understand better and look at what you're seeing.

theRadAleks, not much of a chance, no. The nature of the proxying means that we need to track the exact game servers being run, on which IPs and ports, and have extra daemons at each location that handle the queries. That isn't readily compatible with unmanaged services.

You could not. You'd need to use an unmanaged VDS or unmanaged dedicated server for generic storage/backups.

What OS are you using?

I usually recommend rsnapshot for a good snapshot solution using rsync:

If your home server runs Linux, it would be easiest to have it connect to the server here and simply copy things over with rsync. (You could also likely do that with Windows, using the Windows version, but I haven't experimented with it.)

It's possible the manager is a little buggy and uses the second "submit" entry, instead of the first one (which is what it should use). I've changed the "Abort" button to a "button" type now, which might resolve this for you.

There aren't immediate plans for one, but possibly down the road. We also lowered the regular base price of that machine type on the order page.

It's funny. I originally liked a dark background as a kid and early adult, back in the DOS days (when there was no other choice anyway) -- then, after I got used to Windows, I realized that it actually hurt my eyes to look at white text on a black background. Now I still find light backgrounds are e...

We've made some additional kernel tweaks and updates to our FPS Locker system, which benefits all managed/standalone game servers that we host on Linux and most noticeably games that run at high tickrates (such as our "ultraaccelerated" CS 1.6/DoD/TFC servers). The result is lower CPU usag...

This is an alternate set of steps to try if the original ones do not work. Visit the "Server control" page for your VDS in our control panel. Select install-amd64-minimal-20250518T165514Z.iso from the DVD images selector, and check the box to boot to the CD/DVD. Reboot the VDS by making su...

A service in Chicago would be the only way right now, yes -- either standalone or on a managed machine/VDS. We may expand this to other locations later but we are testing with Chicago in the beta.

We added a new location recently called "Proxied Chicago" which is available for certain game types and causes fast query responses to go out to players from every location. Some GSPs call this "anycast". We talk more about in a FAQ entry. The location is still in beta and perfor...

I agree that testing a fresh install before importing your old db would be best. It is possible that there is a database schema difference between new and old, such as that a column is missing.

A new sale for both new and existing customers! - 4+ core VDSes get 20% off the base price. No coupon code required -- this is applied through the order page automatically!
