Anyone recommend a VPS host that allow SME 8.x
« on: August 16, 2013, 03:58:53 PM »
I'm looking to upgrade my old SME 7.5.1 server but having totted up my electricity consumption I find that it would actually be cheaper to run my server on VPS hosting than from home (this would also solve some dynamic DNS issues and SMTP problems that BT Infinity cause me).

Anyone use SME8.x on a VPS host in the UK?

Regards,
Jason.
