use ServInt and would recommend them.

I'm a Pair customer of many many years myself, and I've been considering jumping ship because of their old PHP version (latest PHP 4, but still PHP 4). If they're going to be upgrading to a real PHP platform, that would kick ass. It's been possible to locally compile and run PHP 5 on shared Pair accounts since, well.. since PHP 5 was released. So you could always have done that. Or if that didn't appeal, they offer PHP 5 in CGI form which you can copy to your local cgi-bin and use. Again this has been around for years now. But re: your question, if you read the Insider newsletter they send out (http://insider.pair.com) it tells you all about their new FreeBSD 6.2 roll-out plans, and the hundreds (if not thousands) of new enhancements it'll bring to all servers, including PHP 5.2.2 (and 4.4.7 as CGI), new MySQL upgrades, SVN, Perl updates, hundreds of new CPAN modules, etc. Have a read, I think you'll like what you see. They estimate roll-out in the next 2 to 4 weeks.

[PHP] Need a new shared host with php
I'm looking for a shared host with an up-to-date php5, and one who at least tries to keep it relatively current. Needs are modest. Just need good ftp access, cgi-bin, shell, etc. Any suggestions. I'm looking at Host Monster, anyone have experience with them? Thanks... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I use host monster for last year and never had a problem with them. Have one account with 8 domains/web sites. None has big traffic. Though, one of web sites is my personal site with Gallery2 installed. When uploading chunk of 10 or 20 images (king size) after is DONE I would get a message that I'm using processor more then I could and it will keep me out for couple minutes before I can continue. Though, my web site is still up, just I can't do anything. And, every time whole process was finished without interruption or with error. Strange thing (never had similar before) but it doesn't bother me a lot. Agree with Edward, VPS is better solution - if possible. I used pair.com for a while. Pricey but VERY GOOD. -afan -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I've used http://phpwebhosting.com for several years, they're quite good, and for $10/month they offer what you're looking for. They're stuck on php 5.12, though. I know a guy who knows the guy behind http://dataslab.com. That seems like a pretty darn good deal($20/month), though I've not really researched the VPS market.

It's an excellent service for VPS and stand-alone server access. I've used them for both over a period of about 4 years. -- _ Myron Turner http://www.room535.org http://www.bstatzero.org http://www.mturner.org/XML_PullParser/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Sure, you can get cheaper, but they run a really tight ship there - great network, great servers, great support.
