newlisp.org os down
Since about 8:00am ET this morning newlisp.org is down, I hope this can be resolved today. Downloads for the Win32 installer and source are still possible at http://sourceforge.net/projects/newlisp
I wonder if anybody has a good suggestion for a reliable hosting company with good support for dedicated servers? Somebody who is around for the next years to come and takes service really serious? I have been a few years with the current hosting company, but whenever something goes wrong, people are not very helpful.

My son found hostgator http://www.hostgator.com/ fine for simple site on a shared server http://www.vanitstudios.com/index.php running Joomla. Can't comment on support for dedicated.

What I am looking for is what they call here a 'dedicatet server hosting'. Basicallly your are renting/using one of your service provider's servers all for yourself. These things run either FreeBSD (preferred), Linux or Windows and have a basic setup pre-installed including a management panel for configuring accounts, web-service, mail-service, SSH shell root access, sometimes DNS, and for rebooting the machine.
Currently I have a 1.8Mhz Pentium with 256MB RAM and 40G harddrive, which costs me about $50+ per month.

Prices in The Netherlands for Unix/Linux hosting are higher then $50,-
But I could run a mirror newlisp's /download/ ...directory,
depends on the traffic (if its not giga bytes per month people download..:-)
but I could run a script on my shell account (debian) and mirror downloads/..daily
They can be found then at newlisp.nodep.nl/mirror/ or something...
(which is http only!)
just let me know..
PS: that would be ofcourse a newlisp mirroring script doing that job ;-)

Hey Lutz...
I'm just about ready to move to Wholesale Internet. They're a competitor of NetStandard. Their main data center facility is downtown KC, and I'll have physical access. I think you can get off the ground with a colocated (not dedicated) box for about $40 per month with 100GB transfer. I'd be willing to be your hands in KC as I'm already preparing to put a system of my own up there.
If all goes as planned, I'll also have tape backup on-site for my own stuff. Depending on the size of your data, I might be able to help you out with backups, too.
I still have one or two of those old Supermicro nodes laying around, too...

Thanks Peter, Tom, Norman and Noah for your offers and suggestions. At the moment we are online again :), but I am planning definitely for a move. I found this interesting site: http://www.webhostingunleashed.com/ evaluating everybody else.
Over the years I have been with several hosting companies. All of them turned out to be a good choice at the beginning. The question is: are they still as reliable and committed one, two or three years after today?
Perhaps I should host in more than one place, so I can switch DNS, quickly if required.
