New server tools added to the dashboard

June 11, 2010

Today we added new tools to your dashboard to give you more power over your server.

A few weeks ago we discovered a problem in the reboot system and had to temporarily remove it. That has been fixed now along with a new safer ’soft reboot’. You can also now hard reboot the system (power cycle the server).

Before resorting to those methods though, we wanted to create the ability to check the status on other systems, like the web server, ftp server and the rTorrent client. These have been added as well as the ability to restart these services individually.

To find these new tools, check out the “maintenance” tab in your dashboard.

Enjoy, and let us know what you think.

ruTorrent 3.1 now available

June 5, 2010

We are now testing ruTorrent, version 3.1, which is packed with new features. So far we love it and want to make it available for anyone else who wants to help us test it on our seedboxes.

All SeedboxHosting.com seedboxes come with separate data partitions where all your files live. This means you can easily go to your dashboard and install version 3.1 or revert back to the stable 2.8 version without destroying your files.

We have also made this new seedbox installation available with SSL for secure web based access.

After a bit more beta testing with early adopters, we will make this the default installation for all new seedboxes.

Let us know how you like it. :)
