XFileSharing Pro - New Site with Web Server Only Or With Fileserver

[coolsalman_1]

Hello Guys,

I need help. I am going to start filehosting site. I am looking for good server offer.

I came to know leaseweb offer good packages
http://www.leaseweb.com/en/dedicated-se ... tb-servers

I saw on many threads, most members said for New site ( Web server) go for shared or vps hosting and for file server go with kimsufi or leaseweb.

If i go as Site ( Web server) + Direct Admin Or cpanel in the beginning ( nginx later) when it is necessary.

Or

Site ( Web server) + file server + Direct Admin Or cpanel in the beginning ( nginx later) on fileserver to reduce load.

which one is the best way. Please guide me.

small note for leaseweb
if you choose the 100TB server , then read this line

LeaseWeb Special Tos

anyway
to answer your question
i preffer to install cpanel ( trial) to get the basic setup done and to get a decent apache setup that can handle a lot of load

but mainly you do not need cpanel , you can use webmin , xamp , apache (stand alone) , lamp ... and a lot more ( kloxo also )

and then a sidenote for kimsufi ( ovh )
they are good for a certain time until you start to suffer from a internal ddos attack and that they shut down all your servers for traffic abuse

long story in a nutshell , they generated a intenal ddos attack when i was using them for my vps servers
how i know ? , because no vps servers was running with internet , the root is locked on ip and every single vps was generating 100 mbit ... and the server itself was also using 100 mbit until i switched the Vmac ( virtual mac , the system they use )

so if i was you , stay away from them

file hosting is not content delivery network (cdn) & nor its streamin media service

leasweb is fine with http video on demand streaming & file hosting sites are fine, you can contact leaseweb and check it with them
