RE: Anyone hosted a web site using IDSL?

Unless you have a real business need to keep your site locally, let a firm
that specializes in hosting sites hold your stuff, with links to your
machine as needed.  My site is pretty simple and costs $4.96/month plus
$1/extra mailbox.   I maintain it right from my machine.  The provider has
lots of servers, big pipes, and a pleasant manner.  Did I mention, he has
big pipes and costs $4.96/month?

Booth, that sounds too good to be true.  I need an AS/400 host.  I need to
be able to configure the HTTP server.  My web applications don't use CGI,
net.data, Websphere, or Domino.  Instead, my applications use a proprietary
plug-in and API's that runs in the same address space as the HTTP server.  I
need to be able to maintain and back-up my database.  I'm not talking about
serving static pages.  I'm talking about hosting applications that could
have fairly heavy use.
