dedicated hosting providers that offer SUSE 9/10?
Would anyone care to recommend providers that offer dedicated hosting on SUSE 9/10? I already use Hetzner in Germany, but would be particularly interested in learning about other European/North-American/Asian providers. /Per Jessen, Zürich

GOdaddy.com offers hosting on linux but they don't specify which distro they use. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998

I use http://www.seanic.net for most of my external hosting, and they offer Linux (but don't say which distro they are using)... C.

Yeah, finding Linux hosting is of course not a problem, but I'm trying to avoid a management nightmare with debian here and fedora there etc. www.seanic.net seems to advertise redhat, but they don't seem to do dedicated servers. One of the best offers I've seen so far is at Strato in Germany - an Athlon64 +3200, 512M RAM, 2 x 80Gb drives, 1Tb traffic included - all for EUR49/month. With SUSE 9.3. Does anyone know of an even better deal anywhere? (with or without SUSE Linux) /Per Jessen, Zürich

Another place we use is westhost. http://www.westhost.com/package-compare.html They do Linux (not suse) but have a decent gui (it's all html). I haven't had any issues with them yet. I went with the "New Year Plus" deal... Is that the only reason you want a "dedicated server"? For ease of management? Why not "Virtual Private Server"? ...yea, I know the difference...

Well, the reason I'm looking for providers that offer SUSE 9/10 is management, but the reason I'm looking for a dedicated server (actually, I'm looking for 1+3) - is that I need the processing power, plus the reliability that a professional datacenter can offer (multi-homing, diesel-generators etc.) A VPS might be just as good, but I feel more comfortable with a complete box that I don't need to share with anyone. Does anyone know what VPS's are typically hosted on? Large multi-processor boxes or? /Per Jessen, Zürich

easyspeedy.com offers a distro of your choice from a range of 8 (including SUSE), so you might want to have a look there. I haven't actually used them myself, but they are bookmarked in case I do! -- Pob hwyl / Best wishes Kevin Donnelly www.kyfieithu.co.uk - Meddalwedd Rhydd yn Gymraeg www.cymrux.org.uk - Linux Cymraeg ar un CD

Thanks Kevin, they're on my list too. They even speak my native language which isn't bad at all :-) /Per Jessen, Zürich

HostEurope http://www.hosteurope.de/ Dells with SUSE 9.3, currently. If you want or need Plesk, SUSE 9.1. Plans for 10.0 have not been announced yet. We run dante.ctan.org, the German node of CTAN (the Comprehensive TeX Archive Network) there, pushing several TB of traffic each month. We're quite satisfied with machines, connection, and service, and they are cheaper than Strato. (Important for a non-profit organization like DANTE e.V. :-) The only complaint is that they use Dell DRAX for remote console management, and that is, well, `dreck'. AFAIK, Strato has classic console terminal servers, IMO that's better for access in case of hardware problems. But then, in case of the one disk problem that we had, we simply called HostEurope (they have a 24x7 hotline) and that resolved the problem very soon.

Im using server4you - they offer their service both in Germany and USA and I have been a customer (in Germany) for almost 5 years now without ever being disappointed (had only one bad downtime in all those years). They offer a version of SuSE 9 at the moment which I will be using too when I get new servers and a number of other distributions too - maybe thats something for you (server4you.de or server4you.com). -- Benjamin Belau Support | IVV5 | Math | uni-muenster.de Tel.: (0251) 83-33754 http://wwwmath.uni-muenster.de/IVV

I've been using cari.net for about 9-months now. My option was configured with SuSE 9.1, but I think the current supported version is 9.3. So far, no real problems. I use the box to host four web presentations and some mailing lists, using mailman. I've got MailScanner/spamassassian/clamav installed which work well to dump almost 1,000 spams/day. The one problem I had was a failure of reverse DNS, which took them about 12-hours to fix. It's been solid except for that one issue. (I don't use them for forward DNS) I can recommend cari.net.
