IMO - I looked at moving to godaddy a year or two ago, but I found their policies to be quite restrictive: no ssh, or shell access to your account, etc. This made it extremely difficult to try to make a decent automated backup system that could synchronize to a local copy of my wiki.
So far, I've had better luck with other hosts...alas I can't remember their names at the moment (I gave up my domain last summer). I'll find them later and post them to this thread. One I can mention: the operators of opensourcecms.com have a hosting service, and they have been excellent in the past (although I haven't used their service for a couple of years). // George [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I have been using Farms with Godaddy an multiple domains with no problem. > Regarding email managing you could integrate with google Apps for > those hosting plans where they do not aloud multiple account managers > so you leave that to the coustemer. > > Regarding Ftp and/or Mysql account you could create an account to each > user/domain (yet using godaddy) . > > Maybe not the best but it should work for the most of your needs. > > > > -------- Original Message -------- > Subject: Re: [pmwiki-users] Best/ANY hosting for reseller w/wiki farm? > From: "Tegan Dowling" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Mon, December 24, 2007 11:31 am > To: "PmWiki Users" <[email protected]> > > > > On Dec 13, 2007 9:40 AM, Tegan Dowling <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> wrote: > > Hey: > > I'd like to have the advantage of a farm installation, so all > my wikis > could use the same basic installation of the PmWiki engine, > but I'd > also like to have my sites hosted in a reseller account, so > that my > clients can self-administer their email, and possibly other > optional > add-ons that hosts often provide.
