unixshell# - Xen-based virtual machines starting at $7.99/mo
We have just opened up a new brand offering low cost virtual machines. These virtual machines are different from the traditional VPS in that they provide a feel that is much closer to a real server.
Highlights of VM service:
- Based on Xen - not Virtuozzo or User Mode Linux.
- Root access.
- Remote console access via SSH / boot into single user mode.
- Web control panel to stop/start/reboot, reinstall server, perform snapshots, change kernel, view bandwidth, and view server statistics.
- Choice of Linux distributions: CentOS, Debian, Gentoo, Fedora Core, Mandrake, or Slackware.
- Snapshot / backup of server included.
- Full access to core kernel networking options including iptables, ebtables, QoS (tc), bridging, tunneling, PPP, IPSec, IPv4, and IPv6. Other features can be added with kernel modules.
- Ability to compile your own kernel modules to extend the functionality of your server.
- Public forums
Plans start as low at $7.99/mo and scale up to compare with dedicated servers.
