Excuse the off-topic post. But as a developer I thought I would warn others of my interesting experiences with PSI web hosting. (PSI-Web). They recently added Perl, but only through a wrapper (ugh...no mail access, etc...) After a few days we figured out they are using a mirror'ed system. You upload to one server and every hour (on the hour) it transfers to the live server. Now the fun part. It won't mirror the deleting of files. You actually have to call or email someone to delete files from a site. If you rename a file, you end up with the old AND the new on the live server. Talk about Ghost page mania. You should have seen us until we finally straightened out what was going on... <s> Would love to see what happens when a page generation scheme is attempted. <g> Sean <DREAMING>there doesn't seem to be any safety with the "big guys."</DREAMING>
