I need some help. Does anyone know a service which can allow me to host webspace for my users? I was thinking of making a program which uses 1 crosswinds account with many "user accounts" (or folders) as a "webspace" for my users. But if I do, crosswinds might get cheezed and sent me a bandwidth bill. If anyone knows how I can host webspace for my users or can help me with my plans to make a BlackPlanet.com-like site, please email me at r_man14@hotmail.com

HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED! Thanx.

You can do that on Crosswinds!? How? Everyone knows that they don't allow users to upload their own server side scripts to their webspace.

that's impossible, since crosswinds doesn't support cgi [for webspace management], multiple ftps for one account, or anything that would make multiple accounts even remotely possible

Anyone knows how you set up your own hosting service at Portland? On their site, I can't find a sign-up form for the free packet. In their FAQ, they refer to a help-page, but that page seems to be offline.
