Dreamhost looks very intriguing. (They have a deal right now $19.95/month for their 338GB plan and they say their filers all use RAID of some sort and have hotswap capability.)
They offer shell access and have python installed. I know I need the password-less ssh connection. Anything else I should verify before I sign-up. It does not look like much of a risk. Greg On 3/15/07, Richard Steven Hack <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
The Dreamhost ISP is offering a file hosting option for about $2.50 per GB ONE-TIME payment to host the files FOREVER. That's about as cheap as it gets for file hosting. Those guys tend to be crazy, but the price is right. I don't know if they have a way to set up with rdiff-backup to their storage, but you might contact them and see if they can do a deal. At the moment, I think it's only open to Dreamhost Web hosting customers, but at $9.95 for their basic hosting plan (which BTW gives you a couple hundred GB of Web space in itself which some people use to store files, plus a terabyte or more of download bandwidth), basically it would cost you $10/month to use their Files Forever service plus the one-time payment per GB. They are marketing this as a service for content providers - they provide a mechanism for "loaning" and "selling" access to the files to other people. But they also say it can be used for archive storage of private files.
