Mike,
Very interesting. I am also an infoboard customer, but have not had such
luck as you describe. I had a pretty decent setup, then they changed their
configuration unannounced, broke my site, then set me up in such a way that
I *have* to run proxy... their standard mod_perl/apache setup doesn't
handle SSI's but they don't have any staff to look at the problem, or so
the owner tells me.
I suppose if you have just a few scripts to run mod_perl their setup may be
adequate... but if you are working on a larger project such as I am you may
find yourself without a lot of support.
good luck...
Jesse
