And here some French Hosting Packages that were mentioned before (http://www.freewebspace.net/forums/showthread.php?threadid=2142) but I think they´re still worth to visit:

http://www.citeglobe.com
http://www.free.fr
http://www.ovh.org

Just look at the other thread for details ....

That´s all.

[BiteTheBugByte]

Is there no one really interested? Hmm.....

[Baggio]

Interested? Sure I am, but I don't get a word of what they say on those sites and those web translators r too f*cked up to do a good job with translating the whole pages.

[Ryan_man]

Well, the first one is software development........

[BiteTheBugByte]

Software development? So only Developers are allowed to use that space??

[Chris]

godau looks like a portland reseller.

also, this was on the formativ site (translated, of course):

Please you have understanding for the fact that per person/company only 1 starter kit can be ordered.

Due to the high announcing numbers for our starter kit de-energising the account can last up to 4 days.

[Baggio]

The first one does look damn appealing... just dunno how to get the account tho.

[LeX]

When I visit agava.com I see plain English and nothing to do with hosting.

Whenever you see anything offering 15MB, 100MB bandwidth and no ads, it's as sure as hell a portland reseller.

Anything that goes 100MB, 2.5MB (or something like that) max file size etc., it's prolly just another Excelland reseller. You can tell by the way these resellers describe their services.

Oh, and it's real easy to see which ones are powered by CA too.

[BiteTheBugByte]

GOD DAMN!!!!! THAT WAS A FAT TYPO!!!!!!

http://hosting.agava.ru/

That´s the correct URL. Sorry, friends.

[Mikhail Hastur]

Formativ Seems to require a fax to confirm the "order"... damnit.... my german is sooooo awful.... couldn't it be in French..... maybe then my head wouldn't spin so much trying to understand the ToS.... I had to dig out my English-German dictionary.... I hope i understood it..... now I just have to debate whether to spend the $3.00 for the confirmation.

[Tharos]

Jego is a Portland reseller
look at the button of the page: (hosted by Portland Communications)

[Inessa]

Agava don't have php (and will never have it - they say it very clear) and they HAVE banners but they pay for them (in russian currency)

[Baggio]

Dunno about the ads business, but agava are damn slow and instable with their ftp, I just tried putting something on their server and the speed was... well real bad.

[dony]

http://www.hut.ru they acclaim to have database access cgi.
any opinions.
agava.ru say that they have php and will have mysql in future.
byez.

[Inessa]

Agava.ru, hut.ru, holm.ru and h1.ru - they all belongs to one russian company. They have mysql, shell, .htaccess but don't have php. And you need to ask sendmail to be activated. They gave you 60 mb and you have to ask more if needed.
