Major Limitations on a Dedicated Server hosting
Following are few of the limitations on a dedicated server hosting package :
a) IRC (eggdrops, clients or daemons) are normally not allowed on dedicated servers. The reason for this is that IRC can be can accessed from anywhere in the world and the network of dedicated server host can be accessed. As this can be accessed from anywhere the network of the server can be accessed which can be a big problem for the web hosting provider.
b) IRC that aim for DDoS on other users are prohibited. DDoS attacks are also a major concern for the servers as these cause a lot of unwanted traffic on the server. This is the reason that the server gets overload.
c) Adult Contents with few of the hosting providers are not allowed. The reason for this is the laws and the internet crimes which are growing day by day. Many adult content websites on the internet are growing with rapid speed and the laws of several countries of the world do not allow this sort of content.
d) Spamming or illegitimate mailing are not allowed on dedicated servers. Spamming is increasing and this is actually informing the people about the things which actually do not exist or informing them about the products and services they have never requested for. Spamming is not allowed on dedicated servers as spammers send hundreds of emails at a time and due to this the load on the server increases which is not good for the web hosting provider as the server belong to the web hosting provider. Also, if any of the person receiving the emails from the spammer complains about this then the web hosting provider can be in serious trouble. Some of the organizations on the internet block the IP addresses of the server from which the spams are being sent. Due to this the IP address of the web hosting provider will be banned which is seriously not a good news for the web hosting provider.
