Need a dedicated server to host digichat

[Decker]

'Windows would be nice because java is more stable on a windows machine.'

Actually it's more stable on a Sun platform, *nix handles it fine as it's developed for that platform - and a bit unpredictable on windows as the code can go a bit south dependent on browser & version.

Still looking for a dedicated server....im in the very serious stages now.

I found some nice ones for under $100 but am still weary of whether or not they can handle the 1000 concurrent users.

I think the minimal requirements right now are:

At least 1 gig of ram
Windows platform
1000 gb/month of BW


Beyond that not sure.

Anyone else have offers or advice as to what I need.

Thanks

Hi WebFan,

Would be happy to help you out and get a server up and running for you.

We dont provide windows on our servers, however, it looks like digichat will install and run under linux, which will give it a better overall performance.

The Best deal at 4Hosted i could find is:

RedHat Linux 9.0
Intel Pentium 4 2.4 GHZ - 1024 MB ram
1000 GB Transfer
120 GB Hard Drive
24/7 Monitoring and True Server Management from 4Hosted.

Would be willing to help you setup Digichat as well, its no biggy as its mostly Java.

We can do this for $60 Setup/$100 Month

If interested you can contact me directly at Paul@4hosted.com or any of the sales team Sales@4hosted.com

Good luck

Will you allow me to try it first and see how it runs.....

If everything works out fine then ill take it.

The only thing is i have heard from more than one source that LINUX is not as good as Windows for this type of program.

Ok guess he doesnt want my business.

So ive decided upon

• Intel P4 - 2.8Ghz •
• 1024 MB RAM
• 80 GB 7200 RPM HDD
• Windows Operating System
• 1000 GB Bandwidth

As my minimal requirements.

Anyone have a great offer for me with great support and uptime?
