I recently got a server (AX41-NVMe) with Plesk at Hetzner. Via the DNS console I added the base domain name, where I also want to reach the server, and that works fine.
What I'm running into now is Hetzner telling me to manually add all domain names to the DNS console in order to use them with the server. But that's crazy, isn't it? There are hosting companies that also rent the servers and they cannot manually add every domain name in the DNS console, I think.
I'm not used to it that way either. The server I rent from Leaseweb allows me to simply add a domain name to cPanel and it will be automatically recognized by the worldwide DNS servers.
For me the Hetzner DNS console is not a workable solution in this way. So I thought to solve it with the Plesk extension for Digital Ocean. Works great! But unfortunately no more than 50 domain names are allowed to be added to their DNS. I want to add 100 domains, so this solution doesn't work either.
So my question to you is:
How can I make my domain names reachable, without manually adding them all to Hetzner's DNS console?
Hi there
We have created a crawler/spider which is intended to visit the homepage (only) of all the domain names that we can find - currently approx 250m of them. We are running into trouble because a lot of domain names don't resolve and our current dedicated server provider keeps sending us automated alerts regarding our activity - despite trying to talk to them about what we are doing, we keep receiving the same.
Our plan is when we find a domain that does not resolve that we put it on a list to only try it infrequently (maybe once a month) to see if it becomes "live". However we are not able to do even a full crawl without having a problem
So we have two things:
1) Can anyone recommend a company that is happy to have someone on their network doing this? We aren't overloading servers, are being 'polite' including looking at robots.txt and are only looking at the homepage.
2) If anyone has any suggestions for how we can reduce these issues, it would be welcome. This is the first time that we have created such a broad crawler and therefore anyone with knowledge like this would be really appreciated
Thanks
Hello, folks...
I'm looking to have a live website at some-domain.com, hosted on a dedicated server, while using CloudFlare nameservers. And I need to find the fastest way to do this from scratch.
I'm getting a bit confused with all the steps required. I also think I'm waiting unnecessarily for things to happen. This shouldn't be taking so long.
My current understanding of the process is this:
1) Register the domain with a domain registrar.
2) Login to my hosting account's cPanel and add the domain as an addon domain.
3) Add a DNS zone for the domain in my dedicated server's control panel (not cPanel).
4) Login to the domain registrar. Add custom nameservers to the domain, and point them to my server's nameservers.
5) Wait 2 days for the nameservers to propagate.
6) Login to CloudFlare, add a new site and let Cloudflare import the DNS zones.
7) Login to the domain registrar and change the nameservers of the domain to those Cloudflare gives me.
8) Wait 2-3 days for the nameservers to propagate.
9) Test the site.
Can you please help me streamline this process?
Thanks!
hello,
For about 100eur, i can get managed Hetzner server: hetzner.com/managed-server
OR unmanaged Hetzner server + platinumservermanagement.com/ (or + myw.pt/devops).
What will be a better option?
I have no experience as System Administrator.
I will like to keep the server fast, optimized, and online.
I don't plan to host many websites on the server, I need a server for a couple of large websites.
So optimization of servers for sites is very important to me.
For optimization I mean, cache optimization, database optimization, server optimization for WordPress, etc...
Is anyone have experience with Hetzner managed servers?
Best Regards
i moved from vps to AX41-NVMe server from hetzner i was running almalinux with cpanel everything was fine
now i don't know if that possible to install almalinux and how to do it can anyone help me please thanks you !
We are renting some servers in hetzner fsn (about 40) in different dcs with 10g connectivity. About 1 or 2 times in month we have network problems. 30 or 40 % of packet loss for one or two minutes.
It always connected to one datacenter . For example we have that problem with 7 servers in dc14 from 13:39:00 till 13:40:30 cest. Contacting support always leads to big works like additional logs, mtr and etc. We are losing a lot of time.
Hetzner support always says that the problem is on our side. But sometimes they propose to free exchange of server or server migration. But they never confirm problem on their side. That's all. We are using very different server configuration from kubernetes on bare metal to hyper-v vms with sql server. Most of our servers are amd epyc ax161.
The problems was really serious in December. We have constant problems (once a day) with all new servers in dc15. We resolved it by relocating servers to dc16 and problem disappeared for some months.
Currently we really don't know what to do. In march we had it 3 times with dc4 and dc13(not sure). Does someone has the problem? Can you advice hosting with great support and not very high prices?
Hello everyone. Have been a long time lurker, but never registered. So, firstly want to say big thank you to this wholesome community for always giving great advices to everyone out there. You guys rock!
I am trying to find an alternative to Hetzner's SX133 which is ridiculously great priced. How do they even do that? Well done Hetzner. On 24/03/2021 - SX133's specs a
Intel® Xeon® W-2145 8 cores, 16 threads,
128 GB DDR4 ECC,
2 x 960 GB NVMe SSD,
10 x 16 TB (SATA 6 Gb/s 7200 rpm) a whooping 160 TB of storage,
1 Gbit/s connection,
Unlimited traffic,
159.00 (without TAX)
I need this for an image hosting website, where users do sometimes upload adult content. Sadly Hetzner TOS (point 6.2) does not allow that and they are entitled to block access to the account of any customer who violates this. Which is fine - it's their rules.
My budget is 180 EUR (without TAX), but I don't even need such fancy specs as Hetzner provides. I am completely okay to settle with something like:
4 core, 8 thread CPU,
32 GB DRR3 ECC,
2 or even 1 240 GB SATA SSD,
The most important factor is storage. The more the better, the minimum would be ~100 TB (SATA 6 Gb/s 7200 rpm)
1 Gbit/s connection,
Website last month traffic was 500 TB, but since 90% is cached by CDN...would still need about 50 TB. Obviously unlimited traffic would be great.
Seems like very few hosting companies actually offer dedicated servers for storage purposes. I have already checked OVH, Leaseweb, OneProvider, Flaunt7 and some local country hostings, but it seems like noone is even close in comparison to what Hetzner offers. It's like their offer is from the future and hopefully in 1-2 years time, others will get there as well.
It be nice if server were located somewhere close to West/Middle of Russia.
P.S As another option, maybe I could rent more then one dedicated server so that their storage capacity would be ~100 TB and going with CEPH instead of RAID6, but still, can't exced 180 EUR budget. Any ideas greatly appreciated.
Hi,
I received some tickets from clients hosted in the old server that says have a problems when try to send emails.
I did some tests and when send email to some accounts I received this warning:
This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.
A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

Too I checked "Email Deliverability" in WHM and appear this message:
-DKIM: The system failed to complete validation of nameserver.domain.coms DKIM because of an error: (XID z736ms) DNS query (default._domainkey.nameserver.domain.com/TXT) timeout!
-SPF: This system does not control DNS for the nameserver.domain.com domain and the system did not find any authoritative nameservers for this domain. You can install the suggested SPF record locally. However, this server is not the authoritative nameserver. If you install this record, this change will not be effective. Contact your domain registrar to verify this domains registration.
-PTR: The system failed to complete validation of nameserver.domain.coms PTR because of an error: (XID 958s2v) DNS query (IP.in-addr.arpa/PTR) timeout!
The server where I have the DNS work correctly. Why happens this?. How can I solve him?.
Thank you very much for your suggestions. Have a nice day.
We've been with Hetzner for years and, while satisfied with the hardware and technical support and infrastructure, quite unhappy with support/sales/abuse departments where it always feels like they're doing one a favor in even answering and often make little effort to actually help.
So my question is if there's any hosting provider to match what they offer? We want to upgrade from our current servers and one type of servers we looked into are https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/ax41 which you can get in Germany* for 39 EUR/month (plus 39EUR setup fee) (prices without VAT as we're outside EU). This is a AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Hexa-Core which has a passmark > 17,000 and comes with 64GB RAM and 2 x 512 GB NVMe SSD. When I found something similar with OVH (slightly better CPU, 3600X instead of 3600), it 105 USD per month when committing to 24 months which is more than double.
Another type we were looking at is the https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/ax51
Anyway, any matching offers elsewhere? We can probably take some bandwidth limitation and cool with either EU or US locations.
*They have a center in Finland but when I did a bit of research it seemed it offers much worse network connectivity so while 5 EUR cheaper per server, doesn't seem to be worth the risk.
