[PHP] Anyone running their own Servers & DNS versus renting space/services from an ISP or Hosting??
Hi all, I'm contemplating moving one of my larger sites off of a hosting company over to my own PIII 1 Gigahertz. Thoughts right now are to use IIS 5.0 and either SQL Server or MySQL. I can currently get a fixed IP address DSL connection at 1.5 meg download and 512 Upload for fairly cheap. The reason I would do this is control, control, control. Is anyone out there running their own servers (not leased/rented form some service)? Is it as easy as registering a domain name server with Network Solutions and that's it? Also, how does one go about getting DNS updates from the outside world to stay current with other DNS's? Any input would be sincerely appreciated!

RE: [PHP] Anyone running their own Servers & DNS versus renting space/services from an ISP or Hosting??
Thanks so much for your honest comments and input. So far I have seen zero problems in the last 29 days with our DSL but you are absolutely correct in that I could easily be hit with a disruption. I actually do back up our current server with 4mm Dat and we are on a UPS but your points are very well taken. Thanks!

The reason I > would do this is control, control, control. In Australia, at least, (A)DSL services are presently subject to major service disruptions on an irregular basis. A hosting company has more, probably multihomed bandwidth than you, a reliable backup solution (you'd hope :)), and disaster recovery plans (again, you hope :)). You, on the other hand, have a (in Australia, at least) shoddy DSL connection, no (proven) backup system, and no disaster recovery plan (if your power goes out, your server's gone). Control, control, control often comes at the cost of reliability, uptime and client happiness. I wouldn't *dream* of moving a client's site from the hosting company to my own system - I don't want to be blamed for the downtime, and any server problems.

RE: [PHP] Anyone running their own Servers & DNS versus renting space/services from an ISP or Hosting??
My thanks to all for the input. I will be taking a closer look at leasing a dedicated machine which will still give me what I am after, ie. ability to compile, install, upgrade, software when/where I need but without some of the sysadmin headaches. Thanks again to everyone !!

Why not lease a dedicated machine in your favourite flavour. That way you have the reliability of a hosting company that monitors 24-hrs, provides generators, UPS, etc. but will have full control over site, configuration, etc. There are many dedicated servers available in NT/2000/Linux/Cobalt Raq/etc. that start at < $100 USD/mo. Understand, though that you are responsible for updates, etc. including security. -- P - Original Message - From: "Andre Bajew" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, March 14, 2001 7:51 PM Subject: [PHP] Anyone running their own Servers & DNS versus renting space/services from an ISP or Hosting?? > Hi all, > > I'm contemplating moving one of my larger sites off of a hosting company > over to my own PIII 1 Gigahertz.

[PHP] APACHE .htaccess and PHP 403 errors
Hi, Anyone out there familiar with Apache's .htaccess & running PHP scripts? I'm using Apaches's mod_rewrite to route some virtual hosts which runs great but is causing HTTP Error 403 - Access forbidden errors just for my .php scripts. I assume there is some sort of .htaccess statement that will get my php scripts back working but I haven't found it yet. Any help would be sincerely appreciated!!

[PHP] possible to get the fully qualified path name for file updloads?
Hi, I'm doing file uploads through PHP and now have a need to retrieve and store the original fully qualified directory path name used for the upload. For example if the user copied image file sample.jpg from c:\temp I need to retrieve and store the c:\temp\ in addition to the sample.jpg that I am already storing. The directory path does not seem to be availble anywhere. Is there some way to get this? TIA!

[PHP] form variables showing blank but query shows non-blank ??
Hi, I have a form that has 4 variables, one, $pass_category, being a select list. The form posts a php script. Once inside the PHP script if I have not selected one of the select list variables the value should be blank. If I echo this out the value shows as blank. However, I later check the value of the passed select list variable and it passes a "if > "" test which has me baffled. I don't have this problem with my three other variables that are just form fields versus a select list. Am I missing something basic or ?? What I'm doing here is building a SQL statement based on form variables. A snippet of the script is below. I'd sincerely appreciate any help or guidance!! Andre "; /* This shows as blank */ echo "Pass_company=$pass_company"; echo "Pass_contact=$pass_contact"; echo "Pass_sort=$pass_sort"; } $db = mysql_pconnect("mysql1:katychamber.com", "katyc2", "katyc2"); ... ... if ($pass_category > "") $sql2 = $sql2 . " and cat = '$pass_category' "; /* this statement passes this test even though it appears to be blank */ ... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
