I'd go with Qwest as the provider and Xmission as the ISP. > Some of the Features I'm looking for > 1. Static IP Address Xmission has that. > 2. Server Friendly (I want to run a commercial Server) I've heard from the sysadmins themselves at Xmission that they could care less what you run as long as it's not a security issue. Not 100% sure on the other stuff. In my situation, the only thing I am paying for now is the ISP. (my father in law covers the quest bill) $20 bucks a month, but that's with an extra email box for my wife, so with out that I think it's $17 bucks a month if you pay six months at a time like I do. Qworst charges depend on what you want, but I'd expect at least $30. Hopefully someone else can give the specifics on that. Qworst is the worst part of hooking up, but once your on things go pretty smoothly. Just make sure you have the person on the phone read back your order to you and take down all the stupid numbers for the conversation so when they do mess up your order, you can tell them what they were and they can track down the person that messed it up and beat him up with a dead chicken. -- Jacob Albretsen [EMAIL PROTECTED] ____________________ BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ ___________________________________________________________________ List Info: http://uug.byu.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/uug-list
