There are a load of cheap VPS services out there; so cheap I decided to 
give one a go to run a backup NS.

Then when I looked closer they all offer Windoze or some Linux or other.

Does anyone know of a VPS provider that can do any OS I like? Or do I 
need to create my own VPS provider :-)

Note that I'm looking for cheap to begin with - bare minimum; enough to 
run BIND. e.g. OVH charge £2.50/month for minimum spec if you like their 
choice of Linux (I don't).

Thanks, Frank.
