You can install and use whatever you want on a slicehost, though, which means you can easily put webmin on your slice if you so desire. > I am thinking the 256 plan should work from a traffic perspective, but > would it be enough for the apps? wordpress + mysql + apache2 + postfix on a 256M slice = works well. The thing is that I need to run something like the daemon referenced in the URL above, or things can and will stop working due to traffic spikes causing RAM exhaustion. I don't know the CPU/RAM requirements for OSCommerce or Zenphoto, though, so adjust for those things. -- Matt G / Dances With Crows The Crow202 Blog: http://crow202.org/wordpress/ There is no Darkness in Eternity/But only Light too dim for us to see --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
