Oops, I forgot something: I don't know how free of American infrastructure Canadian Web Hosting is. They recently tried to give me a 5-pack (requested by me) of extra IPv4 addresses which turned out to be U.S.-located, and I got them to swap these for a 5-pack of Canadian-located addresses.

They have a variety of Linux and Windows server offerings (virtual and dedicated). For virtualization, they use and/or have used Virtuozzo Containairs, Citrix Xen, and VMware. If a control panel is needed, they offer WHM/cPanel (yech!) and Parallels Plesk.

Hmmm, would control panels ever be a valid topic for presentation at MUUG? I might be able to do the WHM/cPanel and Parallels Plesk parts of such a presentation.

Now, with the idea that if we have to put up with spooks, they should
at the very least be *our* spooks, I am interested in Linux virtual
server hosts in Canada.

I have one with prgmr.com now, and they've been great, but diversity
is also useful. Thoughts?

Cheers,
