I wouldn't recommend Linode to you for this, no. Linode is good for situations where you'd love to have your own complete server that you can do anything with. e-mail, apache, openvpn, etc. In other words if you'd be comfortable hosting your blog on your own personal computer, then you'd be comfortable on Linode. You have to do everything from software installtion to setup to maintenance. I maintain my linode VPS just like I maintain any server. regular security updates, monitor for intrusions, etc. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
