I am trying to start a small hosting service from home, and need a good control program. Here is what I plan on useing for my servers anyone know of a good controller that would use all of these. Win2K Adv Server, IIS for HTTP, and FTP, Imail from IPswitch for e-mail, MS SQL, MS DNS server. I need to be able to make different plans (at least 6) and let a client choose from one of them. I also want them to be able to upgrade their service plan at any time though a client login. It needs to take payment as well using cc info and then process it somehow if the system takes e-checks thats a plus(no required). I dont know how this stuff all works, but I am trying. Anyone know of one that will do all this maybe you know one that would do what I need (you might even know something else please help) Thanks.

I think Hsphere supports winnt. Not positive.

Last time I checked I dont think it did everything I need it to do.

Woah! . you've got some list of requirements there. :)
And if you're doing it from home, I guess your budget is pretty limited as well.

Have a look here: http://www.adsi4nt.com/frame.htm
and here: http://www.iisfaq.com/
They are simply collections of scripts that can do many of the tasks you'll need. You will need to do a fair bit of work putting them all together tho. And I'm not sure if that's what you are looking for.

But really ... if you don't know what you are doing ... then why do you want to make a buisness out of it?!?

We (H-Sphere) do support win2000 hosting, but we support DNS & Mail on unix servers.
