Beware new Domain Name sales scam

A ressurgence of an age-old domain name sales scam has statred again, with scammers UKDNR (calling themselves "Domain Name Registrar") are telephoning .uk and .com registrants, with a high-pressure sales tactic based on the false claim that someone is attempting to register domain names similar to yours, then offering to register them ahead of this fictitious 3rd party at a vastly inflated price.

Anyone receiving unsolicited sales calls regarding domain names and hosting should regard such calls as fraudulent, and under no circumstances should you give these scum your credit-card details.

If you want to buy additional domain names, always use a reputable domain registrar like Othello Technology Systems Ltd at www.OthelloNames.net

Advanced Multi-Location Server Monitor and Alert

Monitor Uptime, Web, Email, DNS, SQL and More...

Perfect for web hosts, dedicated server admins and webmasters of mission critical systems.

For business, 100% availability of servers, devices and services are critical. If you manage an on-line or mission-critical system, particularly in eCommerce, knowing that your networking components are available is of the highest importance.

Othello::Servers Advanced Systems Monitoring provides a continual external check on your servers, allowing you to be notified if a service [port] on your own (in-house), dedicated or collocated server fails or is not responding correctly.

For example, by monitoring port 80 (web) and port 25 (smtp/email) you could know if your visitors can see your webpage and send you email ! For a minimal charge per day we can monitor services such as HTTP, FTP, IMAP, SMTP, POP3, MYSQL, SSH, TELNET etc.

This is advanced, intuitive monitoring based on Nagios technology - get notified of outages before your clients start to call, and be back up before they could notice !
