Managed or Unmanaged Servers
Your Server can be provided either with or without a management service.
Managed Servers
Managed servers are provided with the Plesk control panel, which can be used to manage web and email hosting. Should root or Administrator access be required, it will be performed on request, providing it does not have an adverse effect on Plesk. Namesco take responsibility for managing security for all applications, as provided at setup. The customer is responsible for all additional applications installed thereafter. Essential updates will be installed by Namesco with prior notification being made to the customer. Non-essential updates may be requested by the customer and may be charged for. The server can also be returned to its original state as provided at setup, charged at the current setup price.
Unmanaged Servers
Unmanaged Linux severs are provided with the Webmin and root access via SSH. The customer takes responsibility for managing the security for the server and installing updates as required. Namesco can provide system administration, which will be charged at the current system administration hourly rate, with a minimum charge for 30 minutes and further charged in 30 minute increments. The server can also be returned to its original state as provided at setup, charged at the current setup price.
