| adom | evening all. | 23:18 |
| adom | been working my new job as a tech support engineer for a proper hosting company | 23:18 |
| adom | LeaseWeb | 23:18 |
| adom | look us up | 23:18 |
| adom | crazy transitioning from call center admin to hosting company tech support | 23:19 |
| adom | in the call center we had like ~10 racks (not all full) and LeaseWeb has rows and rows of racks | 23:19 |
| adom | the support is different too. LeaseWeb offers mainly only unmanaged hosting, which means you get a VPS or ded server with root access, and you only call support if you broke the box and can't get in | 23:20 |
| adom | even then though, we offer iLo and other console connections on a different IP so you can remote access the machine even if the NIC is having problems or something | 23:21 |
| adom | so rather than geting an email that says "i can't access blah blah share" or "i click an update on the one exchange server and now its broken, fix it", i just have to get the serve rback up or at least get rescue access to the customer ASAP | 23:22 |
| adom | im liking it because its less stress because i dont have to fix the problem, just get the server back up for the customer to fix it... however it can suck because, as most admins know, the only crappy part about hosting support is the customer | 23:23 |
| adom | so far ive been working there for two weeks, and i have personally fixed this Asian guy's Windows serer 4 times and he keeps breaking it, or resetting the password and forgetting it, or whatever | 23:23 |
| adom | we also have to deal with DDoS attacks somewhat frequently. its annoying, but not because of the attack (we just null IPs), but because the customer is all "WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MY SERVER ITS NOT ACCESSIBLE" and i just want to be like "Did you piss off someone on the internet lately that can find out your IP address?" | 23:25 |
| adom | oh, other cool thing; employees get a free development VPS to whatever reason. they only last 3-6 months sometimes and you have to request a new one, but its great for debugging and testing stuff. the laptop they issued me is Win7, so i have the VPS set up with some debugging linux stuff like nmap and ettercap and stuff. that way i have tools at my fingertips from any PC that can run putty. | 23:31 |
| adom | well, anyway, </rant> | 23:32 |
