I finally got the company I work for to give me a chance to try a pilot project using Zope. Problem is we need a server set-up somewhere running Apache and Zope (preferably under NT as we have no *nix/nux knowhow whatever inhouse.) We found a company here in the netherlands that will host a 19" server for us cheaply, so we asked our hardware supplier for an offer on the box with apache installation (Zope i can manage myself, but i have never even seen Apache up close). They said it would cost approximately 10k for an IBM Netfinity with 2 SCSI-drives, including 12 hrs to install Apache. Somehow that seemed a little excessive to me, and even if it isn't, we can't afford to spend that much on this project right now, but we might in a few months. My question is: does anyone on the list know of a partner that can: a) sell us the hardware & Apache installation at a lower price (keeping in mind the box will have to be shipped to the Netherlands.) or b) rent us a server with Apache/Zope installed, and something like pc-anywhere running to access it from over here. We would require 24-7 service (someone to reboot the server if it hangs/crashes, not much more.) any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I know these aren't questions about Zope proper, so if this question is inappropriate for this forum, please disregard, and this newbie's apologies. cheers, ---------------------- eric casteleijn eric@codenamefuture.nl t 070 302 47 81 f 070 364 49 34 Codename Future Zeestraat 71 2518 AA Den Haag ----------------------
