I'm looking for a similar host.

It's strictly for phpBB (2.x) and i don't need it to act as a File Server.

That means i need only:

5+ MB Web Space
5MB (or, preferably, more) of MySQL Database
PHP 3/4 support.

No need in cgi, perl or whateva...

but the most important part is that it has to be free (no ads), and FAST.
and i mean at least faster than Tripod Lycos....

And atleast 2GB webtraffic per month.

Kaymaster- i am not sure if there is a free host with all those requirements. Must you have php/mysql AND cgi?? Most scripts are one or the other, i dont know of any that are both. Also not many free hosts that offer .htaccess :'(

Otherwise these are some good hosts close to what u 2 want: (all have ftp)

www.xug.net -I dont think they have a limit on space, no ads, 5gb space, php, mysql

or

www.amzweb.net -You have to post at their forum but you can get up to like 75mb php, mysql, and "unlimited" space. However, I heard they have quit accepting sign ups. (No ads btw)

or

the dreadful host.sk - "unlimited space and b-width", php, mysql, .htaccess, s-l-o-w as hosting on a dialup and about as reliable of hosting off of a Nintendo :rolleyes:

That's really hard to find. I don't understand why you need PHP/MySQL and Perl/CGI. Only one scripting language is necessary per website.
:confused:

PHP support would be the priority.
