Re: Looking for accessible web host and domain registration

Hi,

Ah, that's most interesting.  How did you ever manage to use the DreamHost
panel?  It requires Javascript and isn't that easy to use even with
Firefox.  I know because I just left them.  Every month they were adding
something new and I felt they lost track of just plain old web hosting.  I
don't really care about their cloud services.  I did like the shell
account, but the version of Ubuntu was rather old.  I didn't like their
VPS because it was limited in what you could actually do with it.  They
wouldn't let me upgrade Apache, the kernel, etc because they said it would
break the VPS which was stuck on Debian Lenny at the time, long after Etch
had been released.  Granted, I didn't try their panel with Lynx, but I
can't imagine it would work without Javascript.  I've never heard of the
domain registrar before, so I'll go take a look.  Thanks very much for the
information.  I knew about Shellworld, but they are more of a shell
account provider and not really a web host from what I gathered.  Besides,
they're a bit expensive if I recall correctly.  This information has been
most helpful and interesting.
