[cfaussie] RE: Co-location hosting

yeah get them to define that ... one thing that our provider gives us is access in their 'staging room' where you can be patched into your rack via their supplied computer or via a laptop etc.  This is free   This is great for bandwidth intensive stuff like installing software via ssh/terminal services as you don't pay for it patched directly like this.  You also get to insert the CD(s) for nothing.   - J   -----Original Message----- From: Gavin Cooney [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 19 March 2004 4:29 PM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] RE: Co-location hosting I'm in Sydney CBD.   The cost of access to the building is one thing that really worries me. He did say on the phone that they'd give me occasional access for free. But i dont know how occasional "occasional" is!   Gav ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CFAussie Mailing List Sent: Friday, March 19, 2004 3:31 PM Subject: [cfaussie] RE: Co-location hosting Er yeah that is expensive...   Where are you Gavin?  Anyone in Melbourne check out www.globalcenter.com.au   I forget the 3 RU cost (their minimum), but call them for a quote, but either way it's $180/hr and you can call them on the way there and they'll have a keyboard and monitor plugged in for when you arrive.  And if you're quick in and out they often won't bill at all (eg. if you're just installing something and it's 15 minutes). For no money they'll powercycle etc over the phone.  Security is excellent and the service and reliabilty are amazing.   - James -----Original Message----- From: Aaron DC [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 19 March 2004 3:15 PM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] RE: Co-location hosting 1 RU is about 1/4 the height of a standard desktop PC - not tower - flat case. Around 1" or so.   It sounds a bit expensive to me.   Aaron   ----- Original Message ----- From: Steve Onnis To: CFAussie Mailing List Sent: Friday, March 19, 2004 2:59 PM Subject: [cfaussie] RE: Co-location hosting Is that one whole rack?   Whats a "rack unit"  ?   Steve -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Gavin Cooney Sent: Friday, March 19, 2004 2:15 PM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] Co-location hosting Hi all, I'm about to sign on the dotted line to pay $156 per month plus $200 for one Rack Unit of space with 1GB downloads/ 10GB uploads.  (excluding GST).
