CloudLinux OS is the leading platform for multi-user hosting environments. Server stability and security is achieved by isolating each hosting user account and appointing host resources individually to each account. Using CloudLinux you create an environment that is more similar to a virtual host than a shared hosting account. Therefore, it’s important to implement and use the CloudLinux OS for every shared hosting, since it will prevent any user from affecting your server and its performance.

Simply put, a domain is the address of your websites.
Web hosting is a service of placing website on servers that are globally accessible online and which serves your websites to their visitors.

LVE is a kernel-level technology developed by the CloudLinux team which operates in a way similar to container virtualization. The LVE Manager enables you to maintain precise control over your server’s resources, including CPU, IO, inodes, the number of processes and connections that each individual cPanel account can use. Thanks to CloudLinux, you can ensure for your customers the resources they leased without depriving other users from their resources. LVE enables many crucial settings:

• CPU limitation
  Limits CPU usage for each individual user. When a user reaches the set CPU limits, their processes are decelerated in order to prevent the misuse of server resources. Processor limitations are crucial in preventing individual users from slowing down or even blocking the entire server and making it unresponsive.
• Memory limitation
  Limits memory usage per user. Memory limitations are important in preventing the overuse of server memory which can lead to server congestion. Memory limitations are also fundamental in protecting the server from destroying important caches that can help increase the speed and reduce the load of the server.
• I/O limits
  Offers the limitation of data throughput per user. The bandwidth is measured in kB/s, and, upon reaching the limit, the processes are reduced. Since IO is one of the weakest shared hosting resources, setting a ceiling for user usage is vital because it enables stable work for all users, instead of several users with extremely complex sites congesting the disks.
• Process number limitation
  Limits the number of simultaneous processes within the LVE for each user. After the limit has been reached, no new processes can be created until one of the existing processes is complete. This effectively prevents fork bombs and similar DOS attacks.
• Entry process limitation
  Limits the number of entry processes within the LVE for each user. A single entry process actually represents a single website visitor. This limitation is important in order to prevent a single website from taking up all Apache resources and making the server unresponsive due to overload.
• MySQL limits
  MySQL Governor enables you to set a resource limitation per user. You can set a limitation for CPU and IO reading and writing, thus preventing individual users from taking up the majority of MySQL server resources. Nowadays, MySQL data launches most web applications and it’s important to monitor those applications.
• Inode limits
  Inode is a type of data structure that describes file system objects – files and directories. Only a limited number of inodes is in each file system, and, after those are used, no new files can be created. Limitations are enforced through file system quotas per user.

Server management requires basic server administrator knowledge. You’ll need it to administrate the operating system you’ll install (Linux or Windows) and configure the applications. If you require a dedicated server, but feel that you lack the technical skills needed to manage a server, we recommend that you take a look at our Premium support service.

You can store and host any kind of content on your VPS, as long as the content is compliant with local legislation. Study the legislation carefully, since you are the one responsible for the data located on the server.

The number of stored tracks regarding the AutoDJ function depends on the size of the tracks. The file storage space you have at your disposal is 2 GB.

MyDataKnox premium support is a service consisting of expanded technical support for virtual and dedicated servers and encompasses additional activities in relation to standard support.

A domain name is arbitrary and you can use any name you prefer, as long as a domain with that name hasn’t already been registered. You can check the availability of your preferred domain here.

If you’re paying using a credit/debit card or PayPal, the service will be ready momentarily upon payment. If you’re paying via bank transaction, it can take up to 48 hours, however, you send us the payment confirmation in order to speed up the activation process.

MyDataKnox doesn’t pose any limitations regarding the type of software you use on your server, as long as the software in question complies with our Terms of Service.

When you order VPS, you can select your preferred operating system (Linux or Windows). You can see the entire list of available operating systems on our website.

Reseller web hosting enables you to set up your own web hosting business under your own name. When you apply for a reseller hosting account, you lease a certain amount of SSD disk space and monthly traffic which you can then distribute among your users. You can choose your own account limitations, as well as the price you’ll set for your clients.

If you’re ordering or already have a hosting account with MyDataKnox and you already have a registered free .hr domain that you want to use, follow the steps described below:

• Visit the Carnet website for domain administration at https://www.dns.hr/portal/mydomain/administration
• Enter the name of the .hr domain that you wish to redirect to MyDataKnox.
• Choose your role related to the domain (owner, technician or administrator) and click “Send”. Afterwards, you’ll receive an e-mail providing you with authorized access to the domain administration website.
• Click on the link indicated in the e-mail and under “DNS scripts” enter the following MyDataKnox nameservers:
  NS1.MYDATAKNOX.COM
  NS2.MYDATAKNOX.COM
• Save the data after making the modification.

An SSL certificate is a cryptographic protocol which increases the level of online data security between visitors of a website and the server where the site is located. In other words, SSL is the encryption of data from readable text to coded text which can be read only by using a decoding key. This enables secure communication and protection of the user’s confidential personal information and financial data.

All your data is stored in the MyDataKnox cloud within our own data centre in Jastrebarsko, Croatia. This ensures a faster response and a support service that can react quickly.

If you provide web hosting services, it’s extremely important to secure and stabilise the servers you’re using. Even if you’re not offering web hosting services, but you require the option to isolate your users, CloudLinux is the perfect choice.

In order for your domain to display content, the content (web pages, images, etc.) must be located on a server which executed your website’s code and serves its contents.
MyDataKnox web hosting service gives you access to that kind of server.

MyDataKnox provides you a complementary DNS hosting service with every VPS. You can access all DNS settings at your MyDataKnox user website.

Each additional activity which is not part of the regular, i.e. ordinary MyDataKnox support will be charged for at a price of HRK 200 per hour, or the equivalent amount in a foreign currency. This price doesn’t include VAT and the billing unit is 30 minutes. Some examples of activities beyond the scope of normal support include: web application issues, installation and/or script configuration, etc.

* The nameservers for MyDataKnox DNS service are not the same as the nameservers for web hosting packages.
If you want to point a domain to your MyDataKnox web hosting package, follow these instructions.

Nameservers of MyDataKnox DNS service for users are:

• mdns1.mydataknox.com
• mdns2.mydataknox.com

By directing the domain to the specified nameservers, you will be able to manage the DNS records for the same, if the domain is registered or transferred within the MyDataKnox system.

DNS hosting is included in the following services:

• VPS servers
• Dedicated servers
• Cloud hosting
• Registered and transferred domains

No. You still control your own DNS settings, and you only need to make some minor modifications in the DNS scripts regarding the service itself.

MyDataKnox doesn’t offer support for specific issues related to applications such as programming, design and website development, unless otherwise agreed upon by the user and MyDataKnox. Even though the premium support service doesn’t include working with your applications, our technical staff will assist you with any issue as much as possible.

All messages that go through the Hosted Exchange e-mail service are checked and cleared of spam (inbox and outbox) and malicious code using cutting-edge antivirus solutions. Nevertheless, we also recommend using your own antivirus computer software.

You need an SSL certificate in the following cases:

• you have a web shop
• you accept credit/debit card payments (or other forms of payment)
• you provide an online service for which your subscribers pass a sign-up process
• your website requires the entry of user log-in information
• you transfer private data online
• you want to inspire confidence with your visitors and users

There are three types of SSL certificates, differing in the level of protection they provide and the way they are displayed in the browser.

• DV (domain validation) – SSL certificate that protects the domain and its owner. It’s displayed in the form of a padlock + https://name.domain
• OV (organization validation) – SSL certificate that verifies and protects company data. It’s displayed in the form of a padlock + https://name.domain
• EV (extended validation) – SSL certificate that provides maximum protection. It’s displayed in the browser as a long green bar containing the company name.

Generally speaking, content migration is your responsibility, however, our support team will execute the migration for you if it involves transferring content from one cPanel to another, or from one CentOS Web Panel to another. You are free to contact our support team regarding anything else and if your need specific answers.

The MyDataKnox L-series dedicated servers are usually ready as soon as you make the payment upon receiving an offer, whereas the XL-series is installed on an individual basis by our technical staff and takes up to 48 hours from the date of payment.

A dedicated server offers you top-notch performance for the purpose of hosting websites with heavy traffic, web applications, various business applications, such as CRM, ERP systems and many more. In simple terms, you can use a dedicated server for all situations in which you require high-level performance, security and complete control of the server.

You can use all the letters of the alphabet, numbers and hyphens.
Even though it’s possible for domain names to contain special characters, such as letters used in languages other than English (e.g. š, đ, ž, ć, č), this should be avoided.

All are server are equipped with a 1 Gbps port

Starting in 2025, a condition for successful registration of .hr and .com.hr domains is verification of the domain owner’s data, which means that the user is required to provide evidence that the owner’s data entered when ordering the domain is correct.
You can read details about the verification process below.

Why do I have to prove that my information is correct?

According to the Cybersecurity Act , published on February 7, 2024, the Registry and registrars of .hr domains are obliged to determine the exact identity of domain users during registration based on secure and credible systems and data sources, i.e. to verify users.

How is verification done?

The verification process in MyDataKnox is performed after payment of the offer upon completion of the domain order.

After paying for the offer, the MyDataKnox system starts a verification process consisting of three steps:

1. You will receive an email to your email address with a link to verify your ordered .hr and .com.hr domains.
2. When opening the link, you are allowed to select the document you want to attach as proof of identity.
3. After you attach the document, a PDF statement will be generated with an overview of your information as the domain owner and the document attached in the previous step.
4. By clicking the confirm button, your verification is saved in the MyDataKnox system.
5. MyDataKnox support confirms or rejects the verification.
6. If the verification is confirmed, your domain is registered and the verification process is complete.
   In case of verification rejection, you will receive an email stating the reason for the rejection and a new link to repeat the verification process.

What documents can I use for verification?

The attached document must be one of the following:

PERSONS

• ID card (both sides)
• passport
• certificate of residence issued by the competent authority (digitally signed or stamped)
• driver’s license
• a statement by a natural person digitally signed with a verified digital signature (with the stated purpose and data: name, surname, personal identification number)

LEGAL ENTITIES

• ID card of the person authorized to represent the legal entity
• passport of the person authorized to represent the legal entity
• certificate of residence issued by a competent authority (digitally signed or stamped) of the person authorized to represent the legal entity
• driver’s license of the person authorized to represent the legal entity
• statement of the person authorized to represent the legal entity digitally signed with a verified digital signature (with the stated purpose and data: name, surname, OIB/VAT)
• document or statement with the signature and seal of the legal entity (for the stated purpose, it is necessary to provide information about the legal entity: name, OIB/VAT)

Frequently asked questions

1. What if I don’t verify my identity?
   In case of unsuccessful verification, MyDataKnox will refund the amount paid for the domain, and the domain will not be registered.
2. I clicked on the verification link, but I got the message “Your verification token has expired”
   If you see a token expiration message, it means that more than 72 hours have passed since the verification email was sent and you need to request a new verification.
   Simply click on the “Request New Verification” button and the process will start over
3. I attached a document, but I received the message “Invalid file format. Allowed formats are: …”
   If you see this message, it means that the attached document is in a format that we do not accept.
   Simply return to the verification form and attach the document in an allowed format.
   Allowed formats are listed in the document submission form, and certainly include JPEG and PNG formats.
4. What information do I need to confirm during the verification process?
   The information that is confirmed by your acceptance of the information on the generated PDF statement is: Name and surname, address, e-mail address, OIB (Croatian Tax Identification Number), and phone number.
   All of the above information is required for the successful registration of .hr and .com.hr domains.

The MyDataKnox R1Soft backup service enables you to create a backup copy of up to two servers. You’ll select the number of servers that you wish to link to the service (number of agents) upon placing your order.

The only limitation to our DNS hosting service is that each zone can hold up to 30 records.

You can check whether a domain name is available through our websites using this link.
There are a few universal rules regarding the selection of a domain name:

• Choose a clear, unique and easily memorable domain name
• The name should link you or your company with the domain itself in as few characters as possible
• The domain name should not contain hyphens, numbers or special characters, unless it is strictly necessary
• The name should be easy to pronounce
• Make sure that the domain name is not registered or trademarked (e.g. eBay, etc.)

There are a few factors that indicate that it’s time to get a VPS:

• YOU’RE CONCERNED WITH SECURITY
  If you require additional security options, such as improved webpage stability, autonomous firewall management, privacy for online payments or similar needs, it’s time to consider VPS hosting.
• THE NUMBER OF VISITORS OF YOUR WEBSITES IS RAPIDLY INCREASING
  When they’re still new, most websites require only the existing MyDataKnox web hosting packages. It often happens that the number of visitors of a website increases so much that the limited resources of a web hosting package become insufficient for interrupted site functioning. That’s definitely a time to transfer to VPS.
• WEBSITES ARE NOTICEABLY SLOW
  It should be pointed out that the web hosting service is not intended for web applications that require more resources, such as increased RAM. As the amount of content and the number of users on your websites increase, the performance is bound to diminish, despite the option of buying more memory capacity and an additional CPU core, since there are still limitations in place for every user in order to ensure the stability of the service for all users on the shared hosting. Transferring to VPS solves all the aforementioned issues, since you’re using dedicated resources, and in case you need extra resources, you can easily upgrade your VPS with a greater number of CPU cores, more disk space or more RAM. MyDataKnox VPS servers are located at our Tier3-category data centre and driven by hardware based on next-generation Intel Xeon processors.
• YOU HAVE A WEB SHOP
  If you run a web shop, especially if it’s visited by a large number of users, you should consider a VPS server. In case you’re wondering why, it’s simple – a VPS server provides you with a secure environment that you can manage yourself. Online payment in itself is something that requires privacy and full control over the service.
• YOU NEED TO INSTALL YOUR OWN APPLICATIONS
  Web hosting is a great choice for website owners, but what happens when you need a server where you can install business applications such as ERP, or specialised databases? To initiate those kind of applications, you need a server with its own OS. Many companies need to install a professional software on a server which their employees can access via a remote desktop, but they don’t find the price of a dedicated server cost-effective. In that case, a VPS server is a great solution, since it enables the installation of the necessary applications on the server, including full control over the server and its resources.
• YOUR BUDGET IS LIMITED
  Even though dedicated servers are ideal for businesses, the price is also an important factor. If you don’t require the full power of an entire server, a VPS server is the ideal choice, while also being considerably cheaper than a dedicated server.
• YOU DEVELOP YOUR OWN SOFTWARE
  The users of VPS services are often developers who require a private work environment which can be accessed from any part of the world. VPS server development enables simple and smooth work according to your own rules, especially with our cloud backup service which safeguards your data on a daily basis.

Of course.
MyDataKnox doesn’t implement that kind of limitation; you can buy the certificate and install it on a server that is not one of ours.

Yes. In order to use the Hosted Exchange service, you need to have your own domain and access to DNS scripts, since it’s necessary to perform certain modifications on DNS scripts.

Our support team is available to you 24 hours a day for anything you might need regarding web hosting. Apart from the standard support we offer related to our web hosting service, we’ll do our best to help you regardless of whether your issue is related to our area of support.

Yes, you can expand your VPS disk space by leasing additional space. However, the installed operating system must be properly configured in order to include the extra disk space. You can contact our customer support if you need more information or assistance.

VPS is, simply put, an acronym that stands for Virtual Private Server. In short, VPS utilizes virtualization technology which enables “fragmentation” of a single powerful server into several virtual ones. Each of those virtual servers acts as a complete physical server and that’s what makes VPS such an important service. The word “private” indicates that those resources are reserved for you, therefore, you’re not sharing memory, CPU power or data with other users.

The owner of the dedicated servers is MyDataKnox, which means that, in case of a malfunction, our staff are in charge of any repairs and/or component replacement. This also means that our technical staff are in charge of server maintenance, which entails activities that ensure high-quality working conditions.

All domain-related options, including management, are at our disposal at the MyDataKnox user portal. You can access the user portal by signing up or logging in.

Radio hosting is paid for exclusively on a yearly basis.

A multiple domain transfer is identical to the transfer of a single domain.
You can initiate the transfer of your domain to MyDataKnox here.

In simple terms, we could describe a DNS as a domain address book. Just like you would use an address book to look up information related to a particular person or company by name, the same goes for domains, since they also have an “address”. When you type our address mydataknox.com in your browser, your computer uses DNS to retrieve the data about the IP addresses linked to our domain. Afterwards, your computer requests the IP address of our web server, which, finally, sends the web page to your browser.
To summarise, DNS connects symbolic domain names, such as the mydatakno.com domain, with the IP address of the server where the domain-related content is located.

There are no limitations, but using the Exchange service as a newsletter system is not allowed.
