Hello,

 From the combined wisdom od the collective, which provider would be the best 
for
setting up Jitsi video bridge on?
As all has moved to tele-everything I need a reliable way to host Church 
meetings.
I need just 25Gb, 1Gb Ram, 2Gh, but I also need advise on bandwidth req.
No fail safe, unless someone sponsors it.



Since this is for a large group of people, I would advise against 
setting up your own VM instance. For instance, on a Digital Ocean 
droplet with 2Gb of RAM, I managed to get about 12 people on Jitsi and 
it seems to run out of steam. For anything more than that, a non-shared 
platform (own hardware) is probably advisable. Do you have a reason for 
not using the Jitsi (*) hosted service? The Surrey Linux User Group have 
been using this with great success for all their monthly meetings.

[GLLUG] DNS registrars and hosting services

2019-10-19 Thread Jan Henkins via GLLUG

Hello All,

I would like to ask the list: Which of these do you use and/or recommend?

* Domain Registrar

* DNS hosting provider

* Email forwarding service

I am aware that these three functions could very well be fulfilled as a 
one-stop solution by the likes of 123-Reg, but the reason for this query 
is to find a replacement for specifically 123-Reg. Also, GoDaddy is 
"NoGoDaddy" in my books, so alternatives to that also, please! :-)


Any thoughts would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
