A Dolphin’s Journal of Events

I see why Windows server OSes have such bad reps, Windows 2000 Server just plain sucks. IIS 5 crashes with php all the time. Fortunately putting it in isolated mode helps a bit, but then the resources go up and well.. everything slows down. Windows 2000 Server was all I had for the server OS, I refuse to download anything illegally [So no Windows 2003], and I still have yet to figure out how to simply install linux. [Tried Gentoo, the OS wouldn't boot, Tried another, couldn't get XWindow [or WindowX?] to load on my display adapter..] Right now it’s being held together like a fridge with duct-tape. I’ll need to stay like that for a bit, just too busy with highschool to bother. Hopefully I can get Apache in there and fix a whole lot of the HTTP Server problems, and give myself some well-needed Apache experience.

And yes I’m starting to miss the B00x [which for new readers, B00x is the name of my old Windows Server 2003 Web Edition back at Sagonet]. Maybe I can put some money in again and get a new server again, or better yet, find a host that does Virtual PC/VMWare servers. That was awsome, fastest script times I’ve ever seen on my oldest host.

I’ve seen more and more Windows VPS/VDS packages turn out, I’m wanting to look into those a bit more.

Bah, I gotta get working on homework… Hm.. after I check out some packages at WebHostingTalk.
