DIY webhosting

without comments

Some of you may know I used to host my own sites a while ago, After about 3 years I got sick with the extra administration work and moved over to TextDrive. I’ve now become unhappy with the lack of options I have on this host and have now moved back to my own hosting.

Oh how things have progressed since i’ve been gone. First time round I used VHCS which is a open source PHP server control panel, nice to use but bloated from its days as a closed source solution. Now i’ve come across using Virtualmin and I’m amazed at how easy it actually is. I’ve deicded to use it as i’m now used to the platform as TextDrive use it. I switch on the webmin service when I need to make a change then shut it down when done.

So here’s to another 3 year experiment with DIY hosting.
