I've finally moved off from my shared hosting provider to a VPS. I'm using Slicehost and couldn't be happier. I'm paying $20 a month for VPS with 256MB and 10GB of storage. I do miss some of what cPanel had to offer, but I'm learning how to do the same sorts of things as what cPanel does for you.
| Feature | Shared | Ubuntu VPS ! |
|---|---|---|
| Apache2 / Php | Yes, but only a very restrictive Php was allowed to run | Latest Apache, full Php |
| MySQL | Yes - limited to 20 databases | Had to modify MySQL to run with less memory |
| Awstats | Works well | http://www.theeggeadventure.com/awstats/awstats.pl it took a bit to get setup, but it's working now. I had to install cronlog, as well as schedule the update to run |
| mailman | installed | It'll be quite a bit of work to get mailman installed for just a couple of mailing lists |
awstats
I had to create a couple of tiny scripts. The first to process my historical log files, and the second to run all configs by cron.
