What NT Web Hosts Are Good Web Hosts? 16
CritterNYC asks: "Anyone know of a good NT Web host? I've had 3 different hosting providers over the last 3 years and had horrible experiences with all three: downtime, unpatched servers, e-mail problems, security issues, configuration issues. Even tried one of the 'top-rated' hosts and it was even worse. Most of my problems can be traced to poor support. (I've administered NT and know what it's capable of.) I have a client store written in ASP and SQL7 to take live soon and am having trouble figuring out where to put it. Any suggestions?"

They've got locations in Vancouver, Sandiego and London. I've got 2 boxes at the Vancouver facility, and used to run off their hosted servers. The service has been great, and the uptime has be perfect. Hope that'll help.

They had a huge server outage a few months back and the president himself wrote a letter to all the domain holders regarding it. I don't expect that it would happen again.

Host your own and subscribe to a good NT security newsletter, if you must use NT. Personally, I find Linux+PostgreSQL 7+PHP4 to be a superior alternative in speed, coding ease, and cost (given that the web copy of SQL Server 2000 will be $20,000!)
Don't try to run Chili!Soft ASP for Linux as an alternative. It doesn't work. It tries to keep one connection to the database and when that gets lost, it never tries to reconnect (like an idiot) and you have to restart the Chili!Soft ASP daemon.
