Server Stability Update
The hosting server recently had issues, due to clamav anti virus filling up the server tmp folder. This has now been resolved.
New features added for videos. Latest version of PHP 5.2.3. installed.

Cpanel Access :: Now Back Up
Finally our server provider has purchased a new license for us, and cpanel is now backup and running. No apology or reason given on why it took them so long to renew the license, and our customers had to suffer as a result. Please note that the alternative usermin service will be left up and running, in the event of future failures to renew the license, or any other "technical problems" of a none described nature.

FTP AND FRONTPAGE
The technical details here are sketchy at best, but we have listened to customers requests on frontpage synchronization of files. The current ftp server is not properly handling file synchronization. Unknown to our customers, we have been trying to come up with a proper solution, but unfortunately many other ftp servers suffer from a similar issue - when you upload a file to the server, it's date/time stamp gets set to local server time, when you download it, it tends to remain the same time.
So we have two solutions. Keep the current ftp server for none frontpage users, but setup a new ftp server on a different port specifically designed for frontpage users, which handles full file sync. Alternatively, replace the old ftp server, which generally works well, with one single new ftp server which handles all the customer requests required, include those of frontpage users.
We will give out more details as they become available.
Kind Regards,

PHP Eaccelerator installed + FastCGI supported
Hi, as a means to further improve the server, we have undertaken over the last few months some additional server features and upgrades, these include php eaccelerator to speed up php based programs and reduce server loadings, an additional backup user administration service should cpanel access be lost - functional site administration, the server now also supports fast cgi applications, and some process monitors have been added (monit) to keep key systems up and functioning, initally just for shoutcast services, but will be expanded into ftp.
One of the major upgrades, due to a single client request, was server support towards high volume uploading of files, and process monitoring of uploads, and real time video conversion software - wmv/realtime videos etc into flash format. PHP now fully supports ffmpeg utilities for video analysis/probing, aswell as server side the ability to convert videos via ffmpeg and flvtool2 meta data, also support mplayer conversion software.
We look forward to 2008, and new prices/product packages that will be introduced to replace the flat rate one that currently exists.
