      The one time cost differentiates us from others in the marketplace and has been working very well for us.
      I have not heard of any plans to remove that offer anytime soon.

      That would be good. It is a major differentiator. Makes a huge difference.

      Yes, those one time cost plans are very different and the reason I am attracted to the service. The clients I serve do not tend to do things for short time frames. so a server here paid once is just a great idea for something that will run for 2-4 years

          What kind of sites are they? WordPress? Drupal? Joomla?

            Is there a way to enable bandwidth caps so you don't get billed?

              You should be able to do that effectively inside of the OS.

                  CentOS with LAMP and ISP Config 3 or Froxlor would be the easiest way unless you want to pay for Cpanel..

                        Good starting place. Although that tends to build out lot of extra stuff. That's meant for people running their own hosting provider!

                          Thanks for all the input. I believe that LAMP is up and running properly. I looked into both ISP Config and Froxlor. I like the look of ISP Config. However, the tutorials I've read appear "complicated" with lots of steps.

                          Do I really need to disable the firewall, SELinux, install all of these extra packages, etc?

                            Firewall should not be disabled, just ports 80 and 443 opened. Firewall should always be on.

                            Disabling SELinux is pretty important, if you don't do that you will need to know how to configure it.

                              ISPConfig has it's own firewall. You can use either. It would be simpler to use ISPConfig's firewall.

                                Ok.... this has been a fun "experiment". Clearly I don't have Fail2Ban properly configured:

                                [root@localhost ~]# fail2ban-client status sshd

                                I'm thinking that I should start a new thread so that this one can get back on topic.

                                  You need to do

                                  vi /etc/fail2ban/jail.local
                                  

                                  Then copy this into the file, and save the files (hit insert to add text, escape to leave insert mode and :wq to write quit (save & exit)

                                  [sshd]
                                  enabled = true
                                  

                                  Make sure SELinux is disabled as well.

                                    It was enabled, but wasn't logging. It may have been an issue with SELinux. I've since started over by reimaging the server. Further discussion is occurring here.

                                    Appreciate the input!
