Yeah we ran into a similar issue with dreamhost. They oversell, and we had a busy weekend once and they sent us a similar email about too many connections. While we had many connections, no where near to many for the plans they sell. Went to a new host and no more issues.
I use dreamhost for personal sites, but anything important go dedicated, we use http://www.rackspace.com you will need to have someone who knows what they are doing though. |

It's not an exploit with vBUlletin, no one is hacking into the forums.. The host (Dreamhost) is shutting down connections with the server when it reaches a max cpu / memory load with the server, alot of shared hosting accounts do this, Dreamhost is somewhat worst then others when it comes to this. This site has grown too much for it to be on any kind of shared server.
Mike, have you checked out Webhosting Talk? (http://www.webhostingtalk.com) |

I've used PowerVPS (http://www.powervps.com/) in the past and they've been good for me. I was on the cheapest Webmin Linux plan and it ran a couple boards smaller than this one. You might have to go with the 2nd Linux Webmin plan for this site.
It looks like they've changed their packages though, they don't have Webmin on there anymore. I didn't have much downtime. There were a couple times when a server would go down for a few hours, but it wasn't very often.

I run a couple of fairly large sites and about 6 months ago moved from 1&1 dedicated servers to OSWebHosting. I've been very happy with the 1 on 1 attention I receive. Tickets that I submit for software installations or problems on the server are usually responded to within 20 minutes.

go to www.theplanet.com and buy a cheap $70 a month server all for your own. If you need help transferring the mysql database and php forums let me know I've done it about 35 times.
