Well I was gonna offer my server - but I only have 16K download to you, and it's far from reliable (Pentium 200 running server 2003 = crap).

Other than that,

Ditto.

259841 2004-08-09 11:08:00 lol ok so what you are saying is not to come to you for a server unless I am really desperate :D NathanTheKind (472)
259842 2004-08-09 11:18:00 Pretty much.

I mean, it works great for the 5 websites and the FTP site it's running - and it has never actually crashed, but the main downside is the a) non static IP (need update tool like No-IP has) and b) my poo upload (=your download).

But I'm here if you need me :D

I suggest really contacting an ISP to see what they provide - they should have spare servers available somewhere.

259843 2004-08-09 12:03:00 If Press F1 did not go down at around about 5ics tonight I would have posted this early:

Here are a few links that may help

Some web hosts you could try & contact:

www.netguide.co.nz
www.webhostdirectory.co.nz

The above two sites should help with your search

maxnet.co.nz

www.ihug.co.nz

orcon.net.nz

www.webdrive.co.nz

Note: I would suggest after you had a look at the web hosts websites, & you cant find any plans that you like e-mail them and ask also if you what the site to be in NZ, I would also suggest you e-mail them as well & ask where there server is.

For this:
>The other option that I would like to look into (but not this year) is >setting up my own webserver so I could then have unlimited webspace
>and be able to become a mirror for software and stuff.

Here are some link that should be of some help:

http://services.blakjak.net

maxnet.co.nz

www.ihug.co.nz

orcon.net.nz

Good luck with your search & if you need any more links to web host etc…, reply back here as the above is just a sample

259845 2004-08-09 12:09:00 Thanks for all this, This should keep me busy for a while. :) NathanTheKind (472)
259846 2004-08-09 13:05:00 Well I think for the time being I will stick with (will move to at the end of the year) to an american server, There prices are heaps cheaper and they provide more features. Either when My business is making more money or the website is making more money, will I then think of setting up a server in NZ

Catch ya later :)
