If it took you an afternoon you might be maintaining things wrong... but then I guess it depend son whether your host gives you SSH access or just ftp. I would never go with an ftp only host. If for some ungodly reason I did, you can be sure I'd have an expect script to migrate the whole site hands free :) > Since then, that host has not answered any of my emails, but I can't > complain too much because I use very inexpensive hosts for my test > sites. > > You see, I'm at the other end of the spectrum than you guys.

I host my InterJinn site from home. If you ever wondered why it's so slow, it's not the code... it's this crud 75k/s upload DSL with terrible latency. > However, when it comes to providing a client with a host, that's a > different matter and it's their cost,not mine -- for I can (and do) > work with much less.
