    Which OS distribution?

    Try "whereis" "locate" "where" commands.

    OS is: centos-4-i386-cpanel

    Where are the 'whereis' 'locate' 'where' commands?

    I used the whereis command, but it couldnt find it, the best it could do was:

    etc/httpd.old/conf/httpd.conf

    is that it?

    You are having cPanel/WHM and hence it has different paths than normal setup I guess.

    I've heard you can ajdust and edit various settings from WHM root itself.
    I'd suggest you to take advice from some advanced server tech at DP from now on.

    Most VPS software does not burst memory at once,
    there is some delay when extra memory is requested,
    thus your VPS may start to swap and go down.

    PHP + Apache are not suitable for busy proxy usage.

    Apache 1.* is forking Web server thus it consumes
    many memory for every established connection.

    Apache 2.* may be compiled as multithreaded
    but it does not do multithreading properly yet.

    If you want busy proxy server to fit into the
    tiny VPS memory then you should use special
    proxy server software instead of PHPproxy.

    Upgraded to Apache 2.2, PHP 5.2.1 and MySQL 5.0.37 today and VPS seems to be running well.

    Well, it's just for info...not directly related to your issue though.

    It sounds that you need to move to Dedicated server!

    Depends upon the no. of hits, complexity of sites being proxified.

    would this be a good setup for running 10 proxy sites?
    Plesk - Elite
    550GB Bandwidth
    768MB Guaranteed RAM
    2GB Burst RAM
    40GB Hard Disk Space
    3 IPs
    Plesk 8.1

    Should I get plesk or cpanel?
