Hi there,

I am shortly going to be moving to a new dedicated server. It will be a venturesonline server, number 3 with a RAM upgrade taking it to a PIII866 with 512MB RAM.

I am looking for someone who has a largeish board that is growing out of virtual hosting and would like to place it on, what should be, a very underused server.

I am looking for someone with somewhere between $50 and $100 to spend on the hosting. You would not get root access but could be set up as a reseller to add other accounts to the server for free.

If anyone is interested in this sort of thing, let me know via email at chris@thepadfields.com

thanks.

Ok there server is:

A PIII 866 with 1GB RAM. That is a venturesonline server with WHM and Cpanel.

Anyway, the bandwidth I have is limited, only 25GB for the server so if you use lots of bandwidth then another option is needed. But if, like me, you have a forum with too many users online for a virtual host but it is mainly forum pages (which will be compressed with gzip up to 80%) then ask me about it.

For $50 per month I can do a reasonably busyish forum with 5GB / month and then any extra bandwidth at ($4/GB) (or $30 for 10GB).

If you have lots of bandwidth needs I might be interested in sharing a rackspace server with somoeone. This is $250 to setup and $100 per month afterwards with 300GB/month!. If someone wants to pay about $20/month I could give them 30GB transfer. Interested?

email chris@thepadfields.com for questions about this.
