Hello MCM!
I'm to_er, a GNU/Linux enthusiast who has been using GNU/Linux for over 8 years. (Ubuntu Feisty Fawn being the first GNU/Linux distro I ever used). I've since been a distro hopper and used Fedora, Open SUSE, Slackware, etc - finally settling on Debian.
My server management journey started 4 years ago when I helped run a cube game server (http://cubeengine.com). Although primarily intended as a game server, it hosted many things: our clan website, game resources, a game leader board, a mail server, and some of my experiments.
Making my entry into Minecraft hosting a little more than a year ago, I worked closely managing dedicated servers and VPS for a short lived, albeit excellent, Minecraft shared hosting company.
What I am offering -
Using rsnapshot, Hourly/Daily/Weekly/Monthly configured to your needs with optional email notifications.
SERVER TROUBLESHOOTING -
Have an error? Chances are I have already encountered it. The most common, and easily solved, are permission errors and daemon crashes.
TIME FRAME:
Varies depending on the project. If you find me online, basic stuff may be completed within an hour or so.
PREFERRED DISTROS:
Although I believe in the overall unity of the Linux world and most distros are similar, I prefer working with: CentOS, Ubuntu and Debian.
PRICING :
If I consider the work to be so basic, I might do it for a vouch. My pricing are really cheap. Most of the setups mentioned above cost way less than others charge. For instance, a well secured LAMP/LEMP with domain configurations costs only $5. I'll be writing a well organized pricing table, but for the time being, you'll have to contact me for the prices.
CONTACT:
PM me on this site, I do not use Skype. You can add me on discord to_er#4888 .
