Daryl, et al -- ...and then Daryl Meese said... % % Hello all,
Hi! % % I am considering changing hosting providers and moving from FreeBSD to % Linux. Because that's what the hosting provider you have in mind runs or because you want to go with Linux? % % My question is are there any PHP related issues to moving (functions that % don't work on Linux but do on FreeBSD, etc)? I haven't had any problems. I host my sites on FreeBSD 4.5 and 4.8 and develop on Linux (SuSE 8.1 and 9.0 and an LFS homebrew box). I did another project for a guy hosting Linux here at the same ISP. Everything has been peachy. % % I doubt there are but have to cover the bases. Good for you :-) Of course, you won't really know until you run your code on the new platform! % % Also, if you got any suggestions for hosts with solid dedicated server plans % I would appreciate replies of the list. I host at DataPipe and absolutely love them. I've pushed their UNIX techs pretty hard (my FreeBSD boxes have a pretty involved PHP build, while the Linux box needed some custom disk layout for mail tuning) and they've kept up well. They do everything from shared to dedicated and their prices are pretty good -- and I've seen them match, too. Yes, I sometimes can talk them into a free month for my cheapest server if I send them a new customer, so if you do go to them I'd appreciate your telling Don in sales that I sent you, but you don't have to and I don't get anything else in any case :-) % % Thanks, % % % Daryl Meese HTH & HAND & Happy hunting :-) :-D -- David T-G * There is too much animal courage in (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * society and not sufficient moral courage.
