Let’s not Meltdown…
by TheeMahn on Jan.13, 2018, under Ultimate Edition
A security vulnerability has hit the net. I have never worried about trojans, virii my entire life building O/S’s, today is a new animal. Impressive, most impressive Darth Vader. What we are dealing with is massive. Every O/S / device on the planet will be effected by this individual that wrote it, like I said impressive. I have written Virus’s err Virii, never to impose on the planet.
Let’s try and make things better here in Ultimate Edition Land.
I have seen my main rig lock over the same, I have a server sitting across the room, absolutely unaffected by the onslaught. Why? Newer kernel than my main rig. It is being addressed on multiple levels.
Lets start here, a newer server version has been released Ultimate Edition 5.7.1 LTS Server (it is a long term supported release). Legion our 32 core was in the mix of building you a new release, it too will not be affected by the vulnerability.
Welcome aboard Ultimate Edition 5.6 Gamers. Before you ask, yes there will be a rebuild on Ultimate Edition 5.6 (5.6.1) & plain Jane Ultimate Edition 5.7 to 5.7.1.
If you are running any Linux based Operating System open a terminal:
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
If it pulls down and installs a kernel higher or equal to 4.13.0-29-generic, after you reboot you will be fine.

Hosting has transitioned.
by TheeMahn on Jan.06, 2018, under Ultimate Edition
New hosting has transpired on multiple levels. I got rid of Godaddy << They do not deserve a link and uploaded gigs of data to our new hosting company Dreamhost & our last website is still transitioning, probably the heaviest in bandwidth too BTW.
While most would ask on multiple levels? We will let the storm calm down as transitioning is is taking place. I want you to know when you are hacking me, yes we have a “Hackers Challenge” coming solely on Legion our 32 core server. I will personally host that challenge. Things will get Harry. There can be only one.
The next knownhost wordpress hosting package we will buy will be based on bandwidth, not cpu cores, ram SSD etc. The best of both worlds. http://os-builder.com/ for example gets the piss beat out of it in bandwidth, a juggling match in resources. It too will be moved, but to my next purchased hosting package. Research now becomes me in my journey to find something even close to eating Terabytes of consumption in bandwidth per month, that is w/o shutting me down for traffic insurge. I have seen 1/2 a Petabyte in a month in the past, in a interview with sourceforge I told them about it.
I did purchase another 6TB drive as I said in the previous post, I loaded $400 on my card. Thanks donors for the help in purchasing hosting. I will add your names to that list once I get this website moved. The SSD will have to wait. Hosting was priority #1. Next check will close the hosting conundrum, maybe I’ll buy a SSD then. The gap then closes on the pursuit to software perfection. Want to contribute to the next hosting service? Please by all means free to contribute. Good things are coming. I’m not just a programmer 😉
Please wait for details. I can hear 10 fans wind up at 10,000 RPMS. I hear you knocking, but you can not come in. YET!!!
Thanks DreamHost. I do believe mains database is still hosted through Godaddy. I will fix that too.

Extortion
by TheeMahn on Jan.04, 2018, under Ultimate Edition
Extortion is a massive word in my vocabulary. We were on Godaddy for years. I will not deny we see massive traffic. The largest file I now host and I may host that on our own custom server is tmosb, Zero Operating Systems with exception a beta tester here and there. Each and every year they raise the amount I must pay them for hosting. I use less & less bandwidth and they charge me more? I call that Extortion. They thought I would not move Gigabytes of data to move to a new hosting company? We are talking multiple domains. I do not like extra work. I took the shaft on that in the past, no more.
New hosting is en-route, please try and put yourselves in my shoes. The forum is down right now, wont stay that way.
You are under new hosting right now (this very website), the forum is the only one truly down. I have assurance that will be up in 48 hours.

TechCrunch, wrote an article about our Ultimate Edition Gamers, thanks TechCrunch.
Benjamin_Breeg aka Wayne McGinnis, just installed Ultimate Edition 5.7 Server on Legion-one (Our AMD 32 Core Server), it is currently uploading Ultimate Edition 5.7 X64 Server to Sourceforge. I have not set it in place for the “Hackers Challange” yet, so please cool your jets. Webpage has being written for Ultimate Edition 5.7

Enjoy,

How can this possibly change UE?

I have told you I have a 1U Server unit inbound. Will be here Wednesday. You gentlemen have hacked my DVR / Security system. I told you not to do this, yet you consistently did that. We have the kind of hackers that are relentless. I drop your IP and I can promise you quit for your lifetime.
Do not hack my rig until I put a server online. I will make you well aware when I want you to hack my rig, today is not the day.
I have been moving data from one hosting company to the next:
8,000 page views in one day. We see 10X that here. You would like to think that is 88,000 views per day (129,737) registered users just here. We have a forum too. We see Millions across the board.
It is hard to maintain.
I am going to busy for a minute. Go check out http://learnlnux.com/ You will hit my main rig. I will let you know when it is time to hack me.
It is coming please calm down. for a sec.

Theemahn,
Moving on.
by TheeMahn on Dec.22, 2017, under Ultimate Edition
I have began moving a singular, dual website. Both will land you to the same. http://os-builder.com & http://uebuilder.com I have downloaded solidly in excess a Terabyte, we are changing hosting companies. Godaddy has been extortionately been raising costs for years. I have fixed it, perhaps permanently.
I had to write software to “fix” it, you know I love arrays:
#!/bin/bash
declare -a SERVER=();
declare -a USERPASS=();
SERVER=(‘rockamd.db.10515754.hostedresource.com’ ‘ultimate22.db.10515754.hostedresource.com’ ‘dow1604804582068.db.10515754.hostedresource.com’ ‘osbuilder.db.10515754.hostedresource.com’ ‘testue.db.10515754.hostedresource.com’
‘uedonors.db.10515754.hostedresource.com’ ‘repostorm.db.10515754.hostedresource.com’ ‘ultamatix.db.10515754.hostedresource.com’ ‘ultimateplayer.db.10515754.hostedresource.com’ ‘themelinux.db.10515754.hostedresource.com’ ‘forumubuntu.db.10515754.hostedresource.com’ ‘dow1304409265529.db.10515754.hostedresource.com’)
USERPASS=(‘rockamd’ ‘ultimate22’ ‘dow1604804582068’ ‘osbuilder’ ‘testue’ ‘uedonors’ ‘repostorm’ ‘ultamatix’ ‘ultimateplayer’ ‘themelinux’ ‘forumubuntu’ ‘dow1304409265529’)if ! [[ -d DATABASES ]]; then
mkdir “DATABASES”
fi
array_counter=0
for EACH in “${SERVER[@]}”
do
echo “Processing $EACH”
UP=”${USERPASS[$array_counter]}”
echo “Command: mysqldump -p -h “$EACH” -u “$UP” “$UP” > DATABASES/”$UP”.sql”
mysqldump -p -h “$EACH” -u “$UP” “$UP” > DATABASES/”$UP”.sql
array_counter=$((array_counter + 1))
done
I am uploading a 18GB compressed file for gamers, UETOYS are next, followed through with apps. We are still dealing with one website, how many do we own?
This is where I want the hosting site to wake up. I send you a few Million users, straight up don’t charge me. I have had hosting companies send me checks. GoDaddy is not one of them, they year after year raise the amount I pay. You do realise I am working on a Operating System for servers? I may host out of my house.
As far as hosting? I am probably the worst individual you would ever want to mess with. Take a deep breath.
TheeMahn,
Server hardware inbound
by TheeMahn on Dec.16, 2017, under Ultimate Edition
What was $320.00 including shipping in September has turned into $410.00. I blame you guys for that 😉
Estimated delivery Thursday, Dec 21, 2017 – Friday, Dec 29, 2017
I have started writing a post for Ultimate Edition 5.7 Server. I would appreciate it if you took some time to review what I have written. If there is anything further that you would like to know about Ultimate Edition 5.7 Server please let me know and I will expand the article.
TheeMahn,
Ultimate Edition Server is coming.
by TheeMahn on Dec.08, 2017, under Ultimate Edition
I thought I would take the time to share progress on Ultimate Edition 5.7 Server. They say a picture says 1,000 words, let me dump a few thousand to you, you can never have enough media. Pictures taken of my 55″ 4K TV downstairs it has a Roku integrated with wireless AC:
I think media is well taken care of, let’s move forward. Apache? We have to have a webserver, you guys have viewed a few thousand pages off it since I put it online.
Tons of tools for tracking and monitoring the condition of your server. Why not a central hub to control virtually every aspect of your server?
Enhanced software? I have been quite busy writing software, multiple applications are being enhanced specifically for the server environment. Nasup being one. Why not scan your network and auto mount any share or NAS (Network Attached Storage) device? I do not believe any Linux on the planet offers such a feature 😉 Please feel free to correct me.
I did say applications right?
I can assure you I have left out more then I have introduced to you today, this Operating System has consumed me. I have never spent the kind of time I have spent in learning networking and pre-setting up your server for you. I can assure you blood sweat and tears are still going into development of this O/S. This is no small task, I can assure you with the highest regard.
I look forward to your feedback when released. I want you to enjoy this: http://theemahn.mynetgear.com/aghddsjgh.
TheeMahn,
