Questions about managing own server

Installation and Configuration

I run my own DigitalOcean server built by following this guide (to the letter!!) -

https://www.jamroom.net/brian/documentation/guides/1188/high-performance-jamroom-on-digitalocean

OK, its not Linode, but I would expect the overall process would be the same, or similar.
As for updates and security etc. I just run the following on a daily basis -

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

I'm sure there's probably more to running a 'critical' server than just this but it has been working for me (so far).

But we do now recommend Linode over DigitalOcean. Maybe they have similar guides on how to build and manage a server.

Any More Live N2JR Sites?

Have just took the liberty of looking at your activity logs and its full of users reseting their passwords. I'm impressed by your active site

Don't send any emails until you have the latest jrCore installed, which we will release asap. There's a bug that can allow emails to be sent faster than the set maximum. You are on Arvixe and they can be twitchy about this and will take drastic action if they think you are spamming.

I understand that Jen is a much read and respected Ningster. Is that correct?

Should I hazard posting a link to this on the creators forum?

DNS is now pointing properly ... but I now cannot log in

I have Clay's logins and have just logged into http://www.thechocolatelife.com as admin with no problem, and everything seems to be working ok.
Clay - I wonder if browser caching or cookies is causing you the issue?

Good catch. That is because the event has effectively been updated by the attending action.

Start downloading your latest Ning archive
Look for some hosting to put your Jamroom site on.

cant import pages .. cant access pages in group config

Installation and Configuration

If the pages originally imported ok but now the import is saying 'profile not found', then the original owner of the pages must have been deleted from your Jamroom site.

DNS is now pointing properly ... but I now cannot log in

Installation and Configuration

I'm not seeing that error - I get the 'Invalid Login or Password - please try again' message but that's because I don't know your login!!
So it looks as though its basically working from my end.
