BSDShellz – $5 Linux/FreeBSD VPS with 64MB

Tags: , , Date/Time: September 17, 2008 @ 1:03 am
UPDATE: Domain still registered but IP does not resolve. FAIL.

BSDShellz.com Got tired and sick of the fat penguin that pretends to be Unix? How about some real Unix like, hmm, FreeBSD? BSDshellz has some cheap FreeBSD VPSs starting from $5/month. You’ll get:

  • 64MB memory
  • 5GB storage
  • 50GB monthly data transfer

You can choose between 32 or 64 bit FreeBSD 7. Of course for the rest of us, GNU/Linux is still an option (CentOS/Debian/Ubuntu/Fedora/Gentoo). And get this — 10 IP addresses! DC seems to be with SoftLayer in Dallas.

    Advertises 10 IP addresses but only offers 5 when you get to order page. What’s up with that? :-)

    The plan page has now changed to 3 IP addresses and FreeBSD 4.11?! WTF? That was released more than 3 years ago…

Some notes on commenting on LowEndBox:

  • Do not use LowEndBox for support issues. Go to your hosting provider and issue a ticket there. Coming here saying "my VPS is down, what do I do?!" will only have your comments removed.
  • Akismet is used for spam detection. Quoting webhostingtalk.com URL seems to get binned consistently here, but I do peek into the spam box frequently to publish those comments.
