    OK...my requests for a webhost.

    I want to test out all these free message board scripts one by one, so obviously, I need a host that will allow me to do that. Also, because I need to test all of them, I am asking for:

    - at least 15 mb
    - MySQL, PHP, ASP, CGI, Perl support (yes, all of them!)
    - FTP
    - FREE (duh)

    That's it! I don't care about advertising or any of that stuff because after all, it's just a test. Is there such a host?

    Why donīt you just install PHP, ASP and e.g. an APACHE Server on your own system? If itīs just for testing this would be the best deal and you donīt have to live with ads nor having bandwidth/quota limits.

    One thing I don't really understand is the need for three different scripting languages - why make things so difficult for yourself? Just stick with one.

    Almost any thing done in ASP can be done in perl
    The only thing we have to fear; is fear itself.

    And why use a CGI BBS when you can get a much faster PHP BBS?

    not all php bbs are faster than perl bbs

    on the aletiahosting.com servers i had a friend with ib3
    aletia uses vBulletin..... they loaded with 1-2 sec difference. and ib3 was the faster forum.

    i think the ib3 board was www.monforums.com
    and the aletia one is www.aletiasupport.com???? u find out

    I guess it depends on how fast the mysql server is.

    Should be, but would it also depend on the speed of the server too?
