From the perspective of the end user, the main difference between web hosting and a VPS/dedicated server is the fact that a web hosting service is designed and optimised solely for the purpose of serving websites within a leased hosting package and comes with certain limitations regarding options such as installing your own applications, whereas a VPS server, as well as a dedicated server, is configurable and can be used for a variety of things, such as installing your own business solutions (CRM and ERP systems, cash register systems, etc.).

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.

Of course. All you need to do is redirect the domain to our nameservers mdns1.mydataknox.com and mdns2.mydataknox.com, and configure the necessary scripts on our user interface for DNS script management.

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.

MyDataKnox DNS hosting enables full control over all domains entered into the system. All DNS scripts are updated the moment you enter or modify them.

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.

As a reseller, you’re providing support to your own customers; you’re completely in control of the communication with your hosting users – after all, you’re the owner of your business! You’ll be able to create your own website, set up hosting packages and pricing, install scripts and modify certain aspects of user websites. Naturally, MyDataKnox support is available 24 hours a days for its reseller customers. You can contact us at any time regarding high-level technical or server issues. MyDataKnox is responsible for uninterrupted functioning and stability of the reseller hosting service, and we’ll always be glad to help you with questions related to the functioning of 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.

No. Every certificate is linked to a specific domain.
A partial exception are the Wildcard certificates, which cover a domain and all its subdomains.

In order to perform a successful domain transfer, you have to meet the following requirements:

• You have be the owner of the domain or have access to the e-mail address indicated in the server as the e-mail of the administrator
• You need to unlock the domain for transfer with your current registrar and get an EPP code, which is required for most extensions (not for Croatian domains)
• The transfer must be initiated no later than 10 days prior to the expiration of the domain, so that it doesn’t expire during transfer
• The transfer must be performed at least 60 days after the domain has been registered or previously transferred.

Radio hosting is paid for exclusively on a yearly basis.

JetBackup is a leading security solution for cPanel which enables quick and efficient creation of incremental backup copies of cPanel user accounts.

If you’re streaming MP3, 128 kbps is more than enough bitrate. If you’re streaming AAC, 64 kbps will be enough for high-quality radio streaming.

Of course. You can upgrade any MyDataKnox web hosting package to a larger one or choose a smaller one at any time.
All you have to do is request a change of package in the MyDataKnox user system, and the modification will be performed automatically upon payment of the price difference between your existing package and a larger one, or automatically when you request a smaller package.
In case you wish to change the type of your web hosting package, e.g. exchange a Standard hosting package for an Advanced one, our support team will perform the task for you completely free of charge.

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 deliver your websites to their visitors.

Yes. Outlook Web Access (OWA) enables you to access all service options using a web browser.

MyDataKnox doesn’t access your server data and therefore doesn’t create backup copies of the server. In order to securely backup your content, you need to use one of our cloud backup service or your own solution. MyDataKnox is not responsible for any data that might be lost due to your lack of a backup copy.

MyDataKnox offers Windows and Linux dedicated servers with different operating systems to choose from. We offer many Linux distributions, such as CentOS, Debian, Fedora and Ubuntu, and in terms of Windows servers, we offer Windows Server 2016 Standard.

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.

You can change the operating system of your VPS at any time through your MyDataKnox user website for server management. Bear in mind that you can install any operating system on a Windows VPS server, whereas there is no option of installing a Windows Server operating system on a Linux VPS server.

There are two types of .hr domains: free and paid domains.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FREE AND A PAID .HR DOMAIN
A free .hr domain can be registered by all legal entities (companies, associations and other legal persons) and self-employed natural persons (tradesmen, medical doctors, attorneys, artists, etc.) based in the Republic of Croatia.
The user has a right to one free domain which they can register through an online registration system at: https://www.dns.hr/portal/register
Paid .hr domains can be registered by all legal and natural persons based in the Republic of Croatia which hold an “OIB” (Croatian Personal Identification Number), as well as legal persons based in the EU which hold a VAT ID.
You can register a paid .hr domain here.

RULES FOR NAMING FREE .HR DOMAINS
The name of a domain pertaining to a legal person must contain its registered name, its shortened registered name, an acronym of its name or an abbreviation containing the syllables of a multi-word registered name.
The name of a domain pertaining to a self-employed natural person must contain their registered name, their shortened registered name, an acronym of their name, an abbreviation containing the syllables of a multi-word registered name or an indication of their activity, as well as their first name, last name or full name.
There are no particular limitations regarding names of paid domains.

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.

In case you run out of repository space, you can easily request an increase of capacity through the MyDataKnox user website.

Yes. The premium support service includes the installation and configuration of the cPanel and CentOS Web Panel control panels.

Of course. All our servers include full administrator privileges.

The MyDataKnox hosting service is used by means of our user-friendly and transparent user interface. Script editing is quick and simple, and daily backup copies eliminate the threat of any errors that might cause operation shutdown of leased servers linked to the DNS scripts.

To use the MyDataKnox DNS hosting service, the domain must be pointed to our user nameservers:

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

A domain transfer costs as much as the renewal of that domain.
When a domain is being transferred, it is also automatically renewed for another year, starting from the date of expiration of its current lease period. You can find the pricing of domain transfers here.

Redirecting an existing domain to MyDataKnox servers is performed by changing nameserver scripts.
The changes are executed in the system of the registry where the domain is registered.
If you decide to redirect your domain registered elsewhere to your MyDataKnox hosting account, you need to change the nameservers of the domain to:
NS1.MYDATAKNOX.COM (185.15.29.210)
NS2.MYDATAKNOX.COM (185.15.29.211)

You require a programme which supports audio streaming. Some examples of those programmes are BUTT and RadioDJ, and both are free of charge. If you only intend to use the AutoDJ function, you don’t require that kind of software.

• 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

Incremental backup enables you to accelerate the process of creating backup copies, after an initial complete server backup has been performed, by sending only modified and new data to the backup repository. A smaller amount of backup data makes for a significantly quicker backup process.

The duration of a domain transfer can be divided into two groups:

.hr i com.hr domains
The transfer of these domain extensions is the quickest. Prior to the transfer, the current registrar of the domain must unlock it for transfer, and an order for transfer must be placed with MyDataKnox. After the payment is complete, you’ll receive an e-mail containing a link for transfer confirmation. As soon as you click on the link in the e-mail and confirm the transfer, it should be executed in a matter of minutes.

.com, .net, .org, .biz, .info and other extensions
The transfer of these domains takes 5 to 7 days.
Prior to the transfer, the current registrar of the domain must unlock it for transfer and request an EPP authorization code which enables the transfer. After you’ve received the EPP code, you can place a domain transfer order with MyDataKnox. After the payment is complete, you’ll receive an e-mail containing a link for transfer confirmation. As soon as you click on the link in the e-mail, the process of transferring the domain from your previous registrar to MyDataKnox will start. It usually takes up to 7 days for the transfer to be completed.
If you want to transfer your domain to MyDataKnox, you can start the process here

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.

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 service is paid for on a monthly basis, and the amount depends solely on the number of e-mail accounts you create and the size of leased space.

Croatian domains are linked to natural and legal persons, therefore, Carnet requires you to enter your PIN or CRN upon registration of a .hr or .com.hr domain.

In the world of business, having a domain has become just as common as having a telephone number. If there is no domain name displayed on your company’s advertising and business cards, the clients that prefer to browse products and services online, which is widely spread nowadays, might skip your content if they are unable to easily find that information. Nowadays, a registered domain and a high-quality website is a business priority, since it’s a very cheap way to present a company name and information to the general public in a way that is simple and quick.
Individuals also want to have their own domain for private or family websites and various activities, but often just to be able to create a private e-mail address on their own domain. If you’re an author, artist, activist, volunteer, or if you perform another kind of activity under your name, registering a domain that carries your full name will create a unique address that you can use for promotion.
A good domain name and a related e-mail address inspire confidence in users, so it’s quite obvious that an imaginary company “My Company Ltd.” would use a domain such as mycompany.com for their websites and an e-mail such as info@mycompany.com for communicating with their clients.

A MyDataKnox hosting service provides simple DNS script management for your domain if you’re also a user of our services of VPS, dedicated servers, cloud or you’re leasing a domain with us. The service itself enables you to easily manage DNS scripts without having to arrange your own DNS server infrastructure. The service also comes with access to a control panel for adding and modifying scripts, free backup of all DNS zones and our useful customer support 24/7.

You can track the number of active listeners live and at a certain point in time, as well as user geolocation

cPanel builds on WHM, and, unlike WHM which is designed for the administration of the server and all its accounts, cPanel is a control panel for the end user, i.e. a centre for managing individual hosting accounts.

Some basic benefits of cPanel are:

• simple installation of hundreds of different scripts and web applications, such as WordPress, Joomla, various forums, project management systems, etc.
• quick e-mail account management and access to an e-mail interface
• creation of an FTP account for the purpose of accessing server files
• autonomous creation of a backup copy with just a few clicks
• easy addition of new domains and creation of subdomains
• assignment of a completely free SSL certificate to each domain
• an overview of detailed statistical information regarding the number of views of hosted websites
• user-friendly management of DNS zones within user accounts
• mobile display of the cPanel interface enables account access and management from any part of the world
• selection of the preferred PHP version separately for each domain
• automated installation of popular CMS systems in just a few clicks
• management of SQL databases and users.

Of course. Upon ordering a server, you select the number of additional IP addresses you require, and, in case you lease multiple addresses, you an easily set one main IP address for your server.

PHP Selector enables your users to select a specific PHP version that they require for their hosting account. PHP Selector provides premium flexibility by offering the users all the popular versions of PHP, which enables them to keep old scripts without the obligation to use newer PHP versions or change the code of their website. The administrator manages PHP versions available to the users, as well as all available PHP extensions, and each user selects a PHP version using the interface and activates/deactivates extensions as necessary.

Every domain consists of a name and an extension.

In the example “mydomain.com”,

• “mydomain” is the domain name, and
• “.com” is the extension.

The domain name precedes the extension and it’s the part of the domain that makes a website unique, and, by analogy, a company, an individual, a project, etc.
A simple example would be “mydataknox” as our domain name.
Domain extensions are related to countries, business operations, activities, etc.
Am example of a country-related extension would be “.hr”, which signifies that the domain is related to Croatia. Some examples of business extensions are “.biz”, “.org” and “.com”.
Apart from the previously mentioned extensions, there are many others that cover a wide variety of areas, from professions and services to hobbies. Some examples of such topical extensions are, among others, “.apartments”, “.fitness”, “.pizza”, and “.news”.

A domain transfer starts with a domain transfer order on our website. Upon ordering a transfer, you’ll need an EPP authorization code for most extensions, which you can get from your existing registrar, and the domain must be unlocked for transfer. After you pay for the transfer, which is necessary since a domain is automatically prolonged for a year upon transfer, you’ll confirm the transfer by clicking on a link sent to you by e-mail. Afterwards, it’ll only take a couple of minutes up to a few days, depending on the registrar and the domain extension, until the transfer is complete.

Hosted Exchange is a cloud platform which provides you with a reliable e-mail service, along with a significant cost reduction, since there are no initial investments in server infrastructure and licenses, and the monthly fee is completely transparent and defined by the number of open e-mail accounts. Exchange offers several possibilities for increasing productivity: from simple access using any device to automatic message, calendar, contact and map synchronization with high-level security and performance.
