Hi Debian Users
I am searching for a virtual server/rootserver. I prefer a Xen instance, but also vservers are acceptable. Will be host a small Wiki - nothing mission critical.
Here my criteria
- - about 20 $ monthly - - payable with Credit Card or PayPal - - about 12 GB diskspace - - about 256 MB RAM - - about 350 GB monthly data transfer - - Console - - IP address - - about 6 subdomains - - unlimited fresh installations - - web based support
Do you have any recommendations?
cheers Simon

I use CentOS on both and they're both great.

Yes, we should not encourage Requests for Proposals here as the list really is about CentOS.

Wow, Panix has been around, well for at least 20+ years now!

Approaching 20 years, yeah.
Panix, the oldest commercial Internet provider in New York, is dedicated to providing stable and reliable Internet access, email, netnews and UNIX computing services to the public. We started in 1989, before the advent of the Internet, and we're still going strong. (from their home page)
They still provide shell access servers, for those of us who really can't live without a command line :-) Their virtual server solution is based on Xen and it works pretty well.

Both Debian and CentOS work just fine on Panix and Linode.

Hi Stephen
thank you. Panix really looks like an insider tip. Linode uses UML as virtualisation software; Xen only in beta testing. From Wikipedia [0]:
Panix is the third-oldest ISP in the world after NetCom and the World. Originally running on A/UX on an Apple Macintosh IIfx, Panix has gone through a number of transitions as the Internet has grown. It maintains a vibrant community of shell-users and posters to its private panix.* USENET newsgroups. Panix also hosts regular get-togethers for fellow Panixistas[1] in Central Park.
Panix was started as a commercial venture to fill the void created after New York City's primary USENET connected public access system (which was donation supported), The Big Electric Cat ceased operations.

If you are in a more experimental mood, you may want to check out Gandi Hosting (which is currently beta). The advantage: their Xen-based hosting is very flexible. You an easily add/drop machines, add/drop resources to existing machines, etc. The disadvangtage: since it is still beta, it may freeze your cat or steal your milkshake.
