I have a Linix VPS with Cpanel.
What do I need to replace and use OVH?
What management system do people use in place of Cpanel?
On my VPS I have a Firewall and 'other' things.
Will I get similar with OVH + what do I need to install to protect max as possible from attacks and hacks?
**On my current VPS firewall**: total 100% protection - well actually I have no idea what this does or how it works!!! I just 'know' it's there.
**'Other' things**: I get reports when there is a high load, I get reports of failed logins, the system automatically blocks IPs after x failed login attempts.
How can I get similar with OVH?
**Maybe more important**: what am I missing? What am I NOT getting with OVH that I am getting with my Linux hosting?
If I can get everything matched service wise and all I need to know is how use and learn... then I'm OK to give it a go!
Thanks.
