I'm going to be purchasing my own server soon, and I've pretty much decided to go with the FreeBSD - Apache combo. But I have a few questions: First, how much memory would you recommend? We are probably not going to be hosting more than 100 virtual accounts for a while, plus a few non-virtual, so is 32 megs enough, or do I need 64? Would Linux be a better choice of OS? What are the advantages/disadvantages of one vs the other? I have noticed that some web presence providers offer their clients their own configuration files, logs, everything, like they have their own server, but it's still virtual. How do you do that? What software do you need to accomplish it? To offer SSL secure connections, is stronghold the only software that does it? Any other tips that might come in handy would be appreciated. Thanks a lot! jumPoint - Jason Allen The Internet's Most Affordable Web Hosting ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For just $5 per month, you can have your own web page on the Internet.
