Re[4]: root access

Sava,

Yes we've tried the demo but really want to see how easy it will
be to create our own templates, and to be frank the demo isn't
fully featured - there are limitations on it.

I looked at all of the hosters you have on the site - I think
there are 5 - and none of their plans were suitable.

February huh?  I really hate to wait that long we'd like to get
this off the ground by the first of the year but we've waited two
years so I guess another couple of months aren't going to kill
us!

I just wish there was a way to really get into Campsite and give
it a thorough test.

Thanks for your responses,

chuck

 >> Hi Chuck, 
 >>  
 >> You need root access to a Linux or FreeBSD machine to install

 >> What somewhat puzzles me is how you can have dedicated servers

 >> Otherwise, we have some professional Campsite hosters among
 >> our community and they are on this list.
