I agree with Adam. I don't speak to anywhere near as many hosting companies as he does but pretty much every one of them I've talked to in the last two years have indicated that shared hosting is a dying market and the push is toward cheap VPS options and cloud-based solutions. Besides, many hosting companies make a complete pig's ear of configuring ColdFusion in shared environments and either end up at one end of the scale where the system is so locked down it is unusable or at the other end of the scale where is it so open you're totally vulnerable to other users' stupidity (or malice). And don't get me started on the subject of people running e-commerce businesses on shared hosting accounts... ;) -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN Railo Technologies US -- http://getrailo.com/ An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ "If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive." -- Margaret Atwood ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
