You MUST unpark the domain name before trying to use it to change your domain name. Use your cpanel to unpark then use the Manage page to change your sub-domain to your domain name. As always, practice safe networking by backing up your files.

Today, I have managed to screw some 10 hosting accounts. It was my mistake by running the script while we're in the transition from Process v1.0 to Manage v2.0 Hosting Account System. For your information we will be using Xisto.com/manage instead of the process page from now on. Due to my unfortunate action, OpaQue has quickly restored those 10 accounts but their hosting credits cannot be certain. If you notice any hosting credits incorrectly stating in your account please PM me directly and I will make things right and true. Again, I sincerely apologize for my action that caused any inconveniences. Thank you. BuffaloHELP For more information on our new Credit System, please read Credit System V2.0 Online ============ ---- OpaQue ---- ============ The accounts which were deleted had NEGATIVE 30 credits and were ment to be Deleted. When I released the new Credit System, I increased the 30 day limit (for terminating accounts) to 100 days. (more than 3 months) Henceforth, If your account gets suspended due to 0 credits, you will have 100 Days to restore your account by recollecting credits. (instead of 30 days). --> Considering this issue to be my personal mistake of not updating Buffalohelp, I RESET the hosting credits of all terminated accounts + Gave them 30 bonus Credits. The following Accounts were Re-CREATED :- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- wizart.trap17.com: typomage darran.trap17.com: darran persiantalks.com: ptalks arza.trap17.com: arza1 subtlesynergy.com: draka stayaddicted.trap17.com: thump chandioz.com: chandioz bradley908.trap17.com: brad908 invite.gooper102.trap17.com: gooper wolfraising.trap17.com: chass23 Following Account HOME BACKUPS have been re-stored. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- wizart.trap17.com: typomage darran.trap17.com: darran persiantalks.com: ptalks arza.trap17.com: arza1 subtlesynergy.com: draka Following Account HOME BACKUPS were NOT found.

Bandwidth Limit Still Exceeded! Am I done for this month??
BuffaloHelp replied to angad619's topic in Web Hosting Support
Your site is suspended because you have reached the monthly bandwidth limit. By upgrading this still hasn't lifted the suspension mode your hosting is currently facing.We have only choices which are: 1) to wait until the next month for your website to function or 2) I can override your current suspension.Normally, we wait until the next month because your hosting agreement with Xisto is clearly spelled out in our TOS and AUP (refer to Xisto Readme). But, since it's the holidays I will manually uplift your suspension. This does not mean I am going soft Merry Christmas.PS look into paid hosting account. Your last month's bandwidth exceeded even the hosting plan 2. I will temporarily make your site to live and then adjust to make the correction. But even with your upgrade you will exceed the bandwidth limit. 1) either double check your script so that you do not exceed 2) FTP and uploads COUNT as part of your bandwidth so limit unnecessary large file uploads and downloads 3) set your bot filter or optimize your large files such as pictures and files. -
Problem Creating Email Accounts In Cpanel
BuffaloHelp replied to anwiii's topic in Web Hosting Support
If you are receiving that high traffic volume to your website, perhaps you should first consider upgrading to hosting plan #2 don't you think? It's odd to me that you rely on only 500mb of bandwidth...When your site is temporally suspended such as with bandwidth exceeded your redirect service will not work (because your site is suspended)... it's as simple as that.Please stick to the topic on hand.Thank you. -

Problem Creating Email Accounts In Cpanel
BuffaloHelp replied to anwiii's topic in Web Hosting Support
I have corrected your situation. When a domain is added to your existing web hosting account it seems like WHM does not translate the proper migration.Opaque will be notified of this issue.You should not have any trouble creating email accounts. -
Email Address Protection From Spam Bots
BuffaloHelp replied to delivi's topic in Websites and Web Designing
How can we be of certain? Is there a way to test this in the eyes of spam bot? Spam bots are getting better where they are able to read JAVA scripts in action. jlhaslip and I were in the middle of something similar to your quick and awesome email replacement using dynamic image--where your email address will show as jpg but to use it, the code would be very similar to yours. If spam bots truly cannot see the converted email address, you're sitting on a goldmine here delivi! Another thought: what about home based pc spammers? They use auto surf and programs to click all URLs on a site to collect email addresses. This won't be protected from these manual email collectors since a browser translates into a real email address...? -
Yes, yes and more yes.When you change your domain name that was "tied" to Xisto hosting, all other add-on domains will have ill effects. Your files will not be deleted but the binding will not recognize add-on domains by your changed domain name.So for this reason, please perform the following to ensure proper web setting. Always create a full backup before performing any hosting modification action.1) unAdd-on all add-on domains wildcatexotics.com and petsxpress.info2) change your "tied" domain name to your new domain3) Add-on remaining domain(s) -- in this case just petsxpress.infoNotes of abnormalities: when you unAdd-on a domain, the folder created by initial Add-on will still remain. When you Add-on a domain name you will be asked to name the folder you wish to associate. While it is possible that you can use the same folder left by the previous unAdd, be prepare to delete the existing folder and create a new one. This is where your backup comes in handy. If you have to create a new folder you can simply upload files for this Add-on domain and you should be all set.

Wireless Router Problems. Keeps dropping network.
BuffaloHelp replied to Damen's topic in Computer Networks
I've dealt with few laptops were behaving similar to your situation. If all possible solution fails try this: disable your anti-virus and see if your connection mysteriously drops.With models from Dell with free anti-virus this solution did the trick. Once users of certain Dell models switched to another anti-virus product they reported that internet connection stayed constant.I don't know why it would do such a thing but before you can rule it out as a hardware issue try this. Let us know how it goes. -
Carson,I think there might be some issues with your hosting account, especially if you think you're missing some files form your hosting account.The only sure way to rectify this situation is to restart with your hosting from the beginning. This involves terminating your current hosting account and requesting for another one.I'll be in touch.

It takes a big person to admin his/her true feeling. It takes even a bigger person to have the ability to reflect and remorse. Reflecting about one's own action to know the difference and to laugh at him/her self is a lost art--perhaps that is what's missing in today's society.I am confident to say that the general statement shown to the parties involved will understand your true intention. I say this out of personal experiences. When I became a moderator of Xisto I realized subtle changed I had towards others. This subtle change came immediately in my driving style. I was inclined to yield and show compassion to slow drivers--I have some heavy lead foot, you see.And I cannot credit this self-involving growth without crediting Xisto. I, too, have had shares of conflicts in this beloved forum. And without such I would not have the great opportunity to view myself from others' eyes. I am grateful, for however small the affect, I had the luxury of safely expose my flaws so that I can learn--safely in the environment of Xisto forum with intellectual discussions.If the World was as perfect as a discussion forum, I would imagine wars would be over in matter of weeks rather than years or decades. When words are left at the end we learn from words that were left behind. Battles only leave casualties behind.I would also like to acknowledge and thank those who were referred in this Vent for their deep understandings. Without both remorse and understanding this Vent could not have the chance to be of a value.

Are you asking admins because you'll continue to be Xisto hosting member?The only way to achieve is to do it in stages.Stage 1 = continue to have Xisto subdomain. Add-on new domain to your hosting. Copy or duplicate identical website to add-on domain's folder (add-on domain will create a folder name of your choosing). While running a full acting website under your new domain, advertise "move notice" on your subdomain while subdomain still being active.Stage 2 = after you are satisfied that your subdomain is ready to be "terminated" you go ahead with domain name change. It is critical that you backup your add-on domain before you do the next. 1) you have backed up all your active web files 2) unAdd-on domain 3) using Process page you change your domain name to your new domain 4) upload all backed up web files.This ensures that you're not losing any traffic to your subdomain and build awareness to your new domain. Do the transition while traffic is very low or alert visitors of "Server Maintenance" before you migrate. Let me know if you are confused with this plan.

Trying to develop an IRC prototype and running IRC service are two different things. You may use Xisto hosting as developing ground for your scripts, in hopes that you don't abuse Xisto servers You can use Xisto hosting to develop even IRC client but what you should refrain is advertising/making widely available you're developing, which leads to visitors using your developing page to chat. Visit http://www.handyphp.com/ one of Xisto administrator's page. You can post your question or request for help/guidance. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

New Hosting Account Problems Cant find cpanel login page
BuffaloHelp replied to omarsdali's topic in Web Hosting Support
Ah... I should have known to trust my instinct... 1) does the domain name belong to you, purchased by you? Xisto only provides free sub-domain name. You can qualify for free domain name once you become a hosting member and hosting credits at least 280. 2) I can see your default index page http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ so the reason you may not be able to see your domain is that the domain name does not belong to you. 3) if you have Internet Explorer you must click on YES to Alert Message allowing you to view login page. Using Firefox you'll notice immediate login pop-up window. If you have a pop-up blocker or firewall preventing any secure login script you will not be able to use cpanel. -
I'm sorry about this.Only OpaQue can reset the hosting credit for your account and I have PM'ed him when this topic was posted. Please be patient while he gets my PM.Thank you.

New Hosting Account Problems Cant find cpanel login page
BuffaloHelp replied to omarsdali's topic in Web Hosting Support
OpaQue is busy at the moment to fix typos. To access your cpanel, it's just http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Do not use https Do not use port number and cpanel, i.e. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ -- this port number is opened to cpanel so you're requesting two-same service, which leads to a blank page. The suggested method of accessing your cpanel, which is stated in Xisto Readme (refer to my signature) is: your_domain_name.ext/cpanel DNS will automatically resolve alpha-characters into IP address. I can see that your Group has changed to [HOSTED] this also confirms that you are hosted correctly by Xisto. Thank you. -
You can force to install emulated version of the closest Canon model as a workaround. This applies to printers only. For Canon camera, just insert the flash card to the reader, unless you're doing a remote capture. Then you're S.O.L.The key reason for the right driver is to print in highest resolution that the printer can offer matched by what your computer is feeding to the printer. This is useful for crisp text printing or high photo printing.The possible workaround is as follows: PDF does not require special drivers to print in optimal level. PDF provides its own postscript emulator that can pretty much print exactly what's on PDF to any printer--the real beauty in why PDF is awesome. So how do you get your documents and photos as PDF? Well, for the longest time my IT teams and I have been using PDF print driver called BullZip. BullZip allows you to output any printing to PDF on the fly. Yes, on the fly. So with your usual Files > Print > select printer, you would choose BullZip instead. And viola~ instant PDF of anything you want to print. Using Adobe Acrobat Reader you can now print your PDF.It's a working theory so let us know how it goes.

Any lighter than Outlook would have to be Outlook Express.I'm wondering why not just use Google Apps (email, calendar, docs etc) with your domain? Or do you have a domain name? I suppose if you want to carry your PIM with you like in a PDA then I Outlook is the best. I have used all other so called free programs for PDA but all of them were crap. Outlook is by far the best PIM for your PDA. If you're using PIM for your laptop what's one little program like Outlook?

Networking With A Wireless Network Adapter
BuffaloHelp replied to LikMeBalleFM's topic in Computer Networks
The trouble with sharing internet connection is that the host (your desktop pc) must be on when you want to surf the internet using your client (laptop).I think the easiest solution is to go get a wireless router (price have fallen so that you can pick one up for about $50) and let the router do all the work. You'll be up and running both computers to the internet in no time. -
Temporary "disabling" Firefox Make it un-usable.
BuffaloHelp replied to FirefoxRocks's topic in Software
How about installing a firewall with password protection?ZoneAlarm, I believe because I'm using the corporate version called Integrity Client by TrueVector are the same, has password lock so that you can disable the entire net traffic until the password is entered.ZoneAlarm will be installed in all profiles in your computer. And only the right password for ZoneAlarm will allow you to enable the locked internet connection. It's a thought... -
Hacking in generally used term is performing an action that is out of device's ordinary or original intent. When I say device I am referring to all that are meant to function in any means by programming.Bot is considered a hacking tool. Otherwise it won't be called a bot, that is unless you're referring to a batch action. Two are different. Bot is a hacking tool since the installment of this bot is to create a behavior that was not originally intended for a locale. Hence, it's doing something out of the ordinary other than the original programming. If you are trying to defend your website against other hackers, you are trying to build a firewall--which Xisto hosting provides without any additional means from hosted members. A defending "bot" would obtain hacker's information and inject something in return as a favor. But what you are attempting to do is just to log hacking attempts this is not called a bot but a mere well written log script.So define what you're trying to achieve and we can then discuss if it's against TOS and AUP

I wish it was as simple as ipconfig to renew IP address. But when an ISP PPPoE based software is installed it inserts proprietary registry values that get left behind. So when ipconfig is even used, the registry at turned off state you cannot perform such function. Hence "IP Cannot be Renewed" or "RPC service cannot be loaded" error messages.Here is the uploaded Winsockfix for XP. This custom made software resets IP registries to the original state. Use only if you have exhausted all possible solution. Modifying your registry can lead to operating system corruption and you should always practice to backup your registry before performing any action.Verizon connection software, at least, takes over the control of PRC, IP, DNS and DHCP function in Windows. When Verizon's software is uninstalled they often leave the modified registry values behind, leaving you with disabled internet connection.Below is the attachment for Winsockxpfix.zip or a.k.a. Winsockfix.zip. If you cannot download please register in our forum.WinsockxpFix.zip
