How about porting over sites from another > webhost to slicehost. I started using slicehost recently and have had a good experience with it. The articles are well written, and they're good about helping out via their chat service. My only prior linux administration experience was running linux on an older laptop, which hardly compares with setting up a server. I had no real problems with getting it going (setting up postfix with google apps mail took a little finesse), and I found the learning experience to be useful in itself. That said, you do incur a labor cost in administering your own server. You should look at engineyard if you want to take a lot of that work out of your hands. They're expensive, but they offer a lot of configuration and deployment automation/consultion, and they have the esteemed Ezra Zygmuntowicz on staff. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
