[OT] Web Hosting on Linux with ssh access

2003-09-03 Thread Andy Williams
Hi,

I'm looking for a hosting company for a website I want to set-up.
It'll need the following:

- ssh access
- a database of some sort (mySQL, postgresql)
- perl with a good selection of cpan installed
- be reasonbably cheap.
- can be on a shared machine but own box would be great.

Any suggestions as I have only used US based ones in the past, but this
site needs to be hosted in the UK.
Oh and please not Amenworld. complete nightmare!

Thanks

Andy

www.oneandone.co.uk are good.

Not too sure about how much CPAN they have installed but their tech 
support has always been good at responding to questions when I've needed 
to use them

A flatmate recently put his music on their servers (see ffield.net).
Extremely cheap for an account with shell access and 5GB/month.

I don't think that their servers are actually based in the UK though.
