&gt;While they claim that bandwidth and storage are unlimited, they allocate
&gt;you 500 MB at first and you need to ask for more.
&gt;
&gt;Similarly, you ask for SSH and they open it up for you.. Talk to them
&gt;and see if it suits you..
&gt;
&gt;Price is $9.95/mo

&gt;&gt;Folks;
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;This is a bit OT, but looking for a new web hosting service.
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;First, some background.  Client has Linuxbased software that 
&gt;&gt;occasionally needs intervention with SSH to maintain and to harvest 
&gt;&gt;data.  Went to Canaca.com, and found that they offered SSH access.  He 
&gt;&gt;orders the following plan:
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;Storage - 30GB
&gt;&gt;Bandwidth - 600GB
&gt;&gt;php
&gt;&gt;cgi-bin
&gt;&gt;perl
&gt;&gt;MySQL/Apache/etc...
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;Price $16.95/month if paid for two years.
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;Orders the service.  Goes to use ssh, finds no ssh access.  Emails 
&gt;&gt;Canaca asking why, and gets back an answer that defies all logic:
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;    
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;All SSH connections on our network are controlled by an access control list;
&gt;&gt;&gt;we do not under any circumstances grant access on a wildcard basis; if you
&gt;&gt;&gt;require SSH access it an nonnegotiable requirement that you provide the
&gt;&gt;&gt;public ip address from where you would be connecting; you have the option of
&gt;&gt;&gt;notifying us in future if there are any changes in the access IP/s ( with
&gt;&gt;&gt;confirmation by the last 4 digits of your credit card number )
&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;      
&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;Now, here we live in the age of being able to connect from many various 
&gt;&gt;locations (requirement) and DHCP servers, and these folks are asking for 
&gt;&gt;what IP address you will be accessing from.
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;I try not to be too judgemental, but this has to be one of the most 
&gt;&gt;ridiculous positions made by a web service provider that I have seen in 
&gt;&gt;a long time.
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;OK, now the question.  Anyone know of a web hosting company offering 
&gt;&gt;similar capabilities at a similar price, and will allow SSH access from 
&gt;&gt;anywhere?
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;V/r
&gt;&gt;
