I'm looking for a host that can provide me with the following:

Gentoo 2004.3 or 2005.0
1500+ GB/month
$99-140/mo
The ability to reboot the server's power
And optionally, the ability to reload the OS on the server from the provider's website
Plesk, cpanel, or Ensim
and optionally Urchin

You defiantly need a dedicated server with those specifications, EV1 servers come with Urchin take a a look at there servers at http://www.ev1servers.net

thanks for the link duport, but maybe its just me but i cant find a gentoo package.

Contact EV1 they will more than likely distribute this package.

Check out http://www.canaca.com they don't have 1500gb+ but still alot of space and bandwidth for cheap.

you can take a look at www.layeredtech.com or www.servermatrix.com .

dk40k: Are you just advertising for canaca.com or what? They obviously look like a new web host.

monkey: I think that your requirements can be fulfilled by a dedicated server but I don't think many providers offers Gentoo. However, since it's open source you might want to ask some dedicated server providers about having a different OS.

Lol, no.. actually I have nothing to do with em. I just found it as an ad somewhere and it seemed like an awesome deal.

thanks orin. we are really tryiing to stay clear of a custom package just because it makes restoring things a pain if something goes wrong.

and also dk40k i also noticed the same thing. your site met like zero of my requirements also. please don't just spam their site in every webhosting thread.

**Duport** · 07-12-2005, 10:44 PM

The Planet also offers Urchin.

Canaca may be the biggest provider in Canada but they have a very bad history record.

I think I found one that closely meets your requirements:

**monkey** · 07-15-2005, 02:32 PM

Hey monkey,

I think that you wont find a server which your requirements because they are jsut so huge. Waht you are better off doing is buying your own server and giving out hosting on it.

How long have you been around. Canca is not a new host.
