While I haven't used it, yet, Gandi.net seems to have a fairly full-featured VPS service. They also have native IPv6 connectivity, which will become more and more important now that IANA is out of IPv4 addresses and the RIRs are expected to run out by the middle of the year. I'm currently on Slicehost and like it, but Gandi's service is more tunable (you can buy RAM independent of CPU or HD space, e.g.) and neither Slicehost nor Rackspace, their parent company, seems to provide native IPv6. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. b...@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
