⚠️ Signups are currently deactivated!

We're now slightly below 1000 free VPS instances!

Within the last few weeks, coming with new locations around the world, we got more and more signups, where people can also test their setups across different geo locations @BoxyBSD.

Unfortunately, this also increases the required support which is really time consuming and only handled by @gyptazy. While everything is fully automated, support is another thing and I need a short break. Hope to open the signups quickly again.

PS: This project is completely free, not even any donation possibilities etc - just imagine a box would only cost 1$.

Strato mailte vor ner Woche, das man V-Server jetzt per Klick von Virtuozzo zu KVM konvertieren kann. Klingt gut - im Gegensatz zu den Mails früher á la "mach doch mal neu".

Leider scheinen dann die inklusiven Snapshots wegzufallen und man muss sich selber ums Backup kümmern. Wenn ich das richtig verstehe. Hm,.wäre nen Grund den Wechsel weiter zu verzögern.

The #BoxyBSD project is taking a pause from provisioning completely free #vps instances / #vserver. For further questions, reach out to @gyptazy or in our Matrix chat.

After publishing the new self-service portal and making it easier to use and get a free VPS instance, we got a lot more new users who requested an instance than usual. We’re not out of resources but we want to provide a great and reliable service and have a buffer for upcoming things.

We’re already restocking the resources and adding new nodes to the project but temporary stop provisioning new instances. In the meantime, we will provide new services that will make the overall experience for users much better and easier.

We already started this with the new #NAT64 gateways and the new free #loadbalancing service that allows you to serve your website also on #IPv4, even your box is #IPv6 only.

We’re addicted to the #BSD community and hope to provide your quickly more #FreeBSD, #NetBSD, #OpenBSD, #DragonflyBSD and all the other bsd based systems again. In the meantime - have fun and #RUNBSD

We just added a free #loadbalancing service to #BoxyBSD!

This new feature got added by @gyptazy in addition to the newly introduced #NAT64 gateways to make your life easier and is currently tested with a few users! This provides you the ability to make your website also reachable by #IPv4 even your box is only running on #IPv6. This feature can be managed from your self-service portal and simply requires you to add a DNS name that should be balanced and to point the DNS A record to a given IPv4.

Making the legacy internet life easier, we hope for a higher #BSD adaption where people might be more motivated to try #FreeBSD, #NetBSD, #OpenBSD or even #opensolaris with #illumos.

On a related note: Bei welchem Anbieter möchte man denn aktuell virtuelle Server für Privatkram klicken? Darf gerne günstig sein, aber Stabilität wäre schon wichtig. Das RZ sollte in der EU stehen. Ich brauche keinen Schnickschnack, aber TUN/TAP sollte gehen und das System sollte von einer verschlüsselten Platte booten können.
