Virtual Private Server (VPS) Hosting
A VPS is a powerful system that may be divided into independent sections; each section operating as a small dedicated server. Each VPS comes with your choice of operating system, has its own dedicated section of processing power, hard drive space, memory and can be used for whatever purposes you need it for. To find out more go to www.ingenuity.net.au/virtual-private-hosting.php or call us on 1300 66 46 43.
Application Firewall
The Application Firewall on our new servers will go towards making a more secure environment; mitigating such problems as Credit Card Fraud, spam creation and distribution, and tracking of common errors.
Wishing you all the best for the holidays and a safe and happy new year!

System Upgrades
As was introduced in December’s Newsletter we will be upgrading our servers to offer PHP 5.3 by default. PHP 5.3 is more robust, has increased security and provides improved functionality.
For you this means that if your site is developed in PHP4 and older versions of PHP5 they may encounter some functioning problems. We recommend you contact your web developer or us here at Ingenuity on 1300 66 46 43 and we can refer you to someone who can help.
Some more exciting developments here at Ingenuity have been the addition of some new products and services on offer to our clients:
Server Co-Location
If your company has a dedicated server to handle your IT related tasks such as hosting websites and managing email you may have encountered some common problems. Housing a server at your business premises can be slow, impact on the reliability due to a lack of constantly monitored environmental controls and redundancy in case of power failures, not to mention housing a server yourself can become quite costly due to internet connection bandwidth quotas. If you would like to improve the efficiency of your server and avoid such issues, Ingenuity provides different server co-location plans.
To take advantage of this service go to www.ingenuity.net.au/server-co-location.php or call us on 1300 66 46 43.
Corporate Spam Filtering
Spam is a problem that most of us will experience at some point by doing no other wrong other than simply having an email address. Ingenuity is now offering Corporate Spam Filtering to help your business tackle this all too common problem. As the name suggests, this isn’t the basic type of spam filtering that can easily be exploited by professional spammers – this is a corporate solution with proven results to considerably reduce the amount of junk emails received.
If you are interested in this product please follow this link for more information www.ingenuity.net.au/corporate-spam-filtering.php or call us on 1300 66 46 43.

Melbourne IT are a great company and I have been a reseller of theirs in the past, so I have no problems with them, although at the prices they charge it’s no wonder they’re doing so well!
The IT section of The Australian newspaper reported yesterday that MANAGED software hosting firm Hostworks has revived its faltering balance sheet after reporting strong sales for the year to June.
Hostworks managing director Marty Gauvin admitted that the company became “distracted” by unprofitable ventures during 2006 causing a drop of 70 per cent in the 2006 financial year, driving its profit down 77 per cent to $220,000 compared to around a $1 million in 2005.
Fortunately they’re back and have reported net profits of $2.3 million for the 12 months to June, citing record sales and revenue performance. Hostworks’ revenue reached $23 million, including $20.9 million is sales to new customers, in the same period.
