Remote Virtual Private Server Administration

The whole concept of a Virtual Private Server or Virtual Hosting is based on remote administration. Many small to medium sized business simply cannot afford to install a T1 into their office (let alone a DS3) and lay down the capital, time, and human resources necessary to maintain a dedicated connection to the Internet. A Virtual Private Server allows you to have a dedicated presence on the Internet and maintain it remotely via a low cost dial-up connection.

User Interfaces

There are several user interfaces that allow you to administer your Virtual Private Server in an easy-to-use and comfortable environment.

• iManager

  Our most comprehensive tool is iManager. iManager provides wizards that guide you through the step-by-step process of uploading files to your Virtual Private Server, managing files, creating E-mail accounts, and much more. Because iManager runs from your Web browser (Netscape Navigator, Internet Explorer, and others), accessing your Virtual Private Server is as easy as surfing a web site.

• Telnet or SSH

  Providing shell account access to your Virtual Private Server is a fundamental part of our philosophy. By using a Telnet or SSH client, you can connect to your Virtual Private Server from anywhere in the world, and log in as if you were sitting right in front it.

The UNIX O/S

The powerful and flexible UNIX Operating System (O/S) is the heart of our Virtual Private Server technology.

• FreeBSD UNIX

  FreeBSD UNIX is a free version of the popular BSD UNIX O/S. It is an inexpensive option for reliable, flexible hosting needs.

• Solaris UNIX

  Sun's Solaris UNIX O/S is famous for reliability and a feature-rich environment. There are a number of powerful Web hosting tools available for your Solaris Virtual Private Server including Allaire ColdFusion, Chili!Soft ASP, and Tomcat JSP.
