I run a couple of off shore web servers and rent space at AU$100 per
year. I run these at very low loading with 300GB spare disk space
and 2TB / month spare transfer.

Hi all
A challenge for the tech heads.
On my redhat 7.3 machine the video SIS 620 device
is detected as a SIS 530 device.
(I don't want to upgrade ) (Yes debian detects it
OK)
The SIS530 does work but not very well. Causes
"distortion" in some parts of the display.

You copy them manually onto the workstation. In my case, the application

I asked about this a while back. Too much work/churn to change it without a

I suspect they will run multiple X processes, just not at once. Logging
in and out of *DM requires an Xserver to be shutdown and started. You
get the same hit there.

Web Central are pretty big. That has all the usual pros and cons. I've
heard good things about them from people who have needed windows
hosting.

I've found nettro.com.au to be reasonably priced, reliable, responsive and
provide linux / windows servers as required. you can either sign up as a
reseller or host single / multiple domains.

A file for a Apple Macintosh computer. Osx V10 on Macs can access samba,

I had downloaded a file for the Mac onto a samba share and it just
didn't show up with ls. So I downloaded into a sub-direct

All of webcentral's servers run windows - they are one of microsoft's
premier partners in aust. This may or may not be of concern.
They are ok from what I have heard, but they are expensive. Did
I mention that they only run windows? :)
I gather stability is paramount?

Hi Roger:
Yes I know of XML::RSS.
I ended up writing my own script to fetch the feeds
urls from some blog/rss engines, and then parses
it to XML::RSS.
My only concern is not to do too many automated
searches via these blog engines. So am looking at how to deal
with this right now.
Does anyone

AFAIK, WebCentral are a Windows-based hosting company. I guess you are after
a Linux-based host?
