ssh question

[jumset]

anybody could tell me how to figure out with a ssh client if the service I got is truly a vps,do I look for index or what I do in ssh for this purpose?

Try run following:

ls -l /proc/vz/veinfo
it will show you if you're on OpenVZ


ls -l /proc/xen
it will show you if you're on Xen virtualization

Did your host not offer a VPS control panel?

Well rather than above solutions, just run ifconfig command if you have root access. If you see venet0 then it is VPS , if you see eth0 then it is dedicated. Simple!

I would run:

fdisk -l
uname -a
ifconfig

Most virtualization tools will show something unusual on one of these items.

Also lspci may help.

Better yet, just ask your host. If you cannot trust them to give you what you ordered, then find a new host.

This has worked for me as well but the best way to find out is contact your hosting company and ask.

fdisk -l
uname -a
ifconfig

If you still do not the above command is good as stated earlier

I was also wondering about the control panel.
