    Do you have a database system?
    We use MySQL. We have found that our members prefer MySQL because it is a relatively easy-to-use database program. Visit www.mysql.com for more information.

    Do you offer Server Side Includes (SSI)?
    SSI is on all of our servers. You just need to be sure that you call your files with the .shtml extension. More information can be found here.

    What is Virtual Hosting?
    Virtual Hosting is where multiple web sites (www.domain.com) are served off the same physical server. This saves each customer from purchasing their own expensive server, performing the setup and providing the appropriate environment. This is the most common method of hosting sites of small to medium size with light to moderate traffic.

    Do you have Front-Page extensions?
    Front Page extensions can be installed for your account. They are not installed automatically during the initial setup. Send us a support request and they will be installed within 24 hours.

    What domain names do you support?
    We support all domains, including foreign domains.

    Can we add services as we grow and need them?
    All options can be added or removed at any time.

    What is SSH?
    SSH is similar to telnet, but it's more secure. It uses high level encryption and compression to make sure nobody can takeover or eavesdrop on your telnet session.

    What software do you run?
    We run the latest version of RedHat Linux, Apache, PHP4, and mySQL. We also have a large collection of perl modules already installed for your use.

    How do I obtain my website statistics?
    Log into your control panel (www.yourdomain.com/cpanel). We offer 4 great statistics packages to give you a detailed view of your visitors.

    Can I modify MIME types?
    Yes! You can do this all through our powerful control panel system. Login to (www.yourdomain.com/cpanel).

    Can I have cron jobs?
    Yes! Simply use your control panel for this. You can setup cron jobs by clicking "Manage -> Cron Jobs"

    Do you provide shell/telnet support?
    No, we not provide Telnet(SSH) Access to our servers for security reasons.

    Where are my raw log files?
    They are located within your control panel. Login and click "Statistics -> Download Raw Access Logs"

    How do I protect my directories with a password/and do you support .htaccess?
    Yes! Login to your control panel (www.your-domain.com/cpanel) and then click "Manage -> Password Protect Folders"
