rduke15 writes "I'm trying to find a centrally managed anti-virus solution for a small business network, which has around 20 Windows XP machines with a Linux server. It is too big to manage each client manually. However, there is no no full-time IT person on site, and no Windows Active Directory server mdash; just Linux with Samba. And the current solution with Symantec Endpoint Protection seems too expensive, and too complex for such a simple need. On the Linux server side, email is handled by amavisd and ClamAV. But the WinXP clients still need a real-time anti-virus for the USB disks they may bring to work, or stuff they download from their personal webmail or other sites. I'm wondering what others may be using in similar situations, and how satisfied they are with it."pa href="http://it.slashdot.org/story/09/06/16/2126231/Central-Anti-Virus-For-Small-Business?from=rss"img src="http://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?from=rssamp;op=imageamp;style=h0amp;sid=09/06/16/2126231"/a/ppa href="http://it.slashdot.org/story/09/06/16/2126231/Central-Anti-Virus-For-Small-Business?from=rss"Read more of this story/a at Slashdot./p pa href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/FISbfWUv37QvbiKoPviWKLrWrAA/0/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/FISbfWUv37QvbiKoPviWKLrWrAA/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/abr/ a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/FISbfWUv37QvbiKoPviWKLrWrAA/1/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/FISbfWUv37QvbiKoPviWKLrWrAA/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/a/pimg src="http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~r/Slashdot/slashdot/~4/v-PN-hT0ZUU" height="1" width="1"/

v1x writes "I have had an account with my current web hosting company for a few years, with 3 domains being hosted there (using Linux/PHP/MySQL). Recently, all three of these websites stopped functioning, and upon checking the site, all my directory structures were intact, whereas all of the files were gone. Upon contacting their technical support, I was given the run-around, and later informed by one of their administrators that none of the files could be restored. Needless to say that I am looking for a different web hosting company at this point, but I would like to make a more informed choice than I did with the current company. I have read a similar Slashdot article (from 2005) on the topic, but the questions posed there were slightly different." Reader mrstrano has a similar question: "I am developing a web application and, after registering the domain, I am now looking for a suitable web hosting provider. It should be cheap enough so I can start small, but should allow me to scale up if the web site is successful (as I hope). The idea is simple enough so I do not need other investors to implement it. This also means that I don't have a lot of money to put on it at the moment. Users of the website will post their pictures (no, it's not going to be a porn website), so scalability might be an issue even with a moderately high number of users. I would like to find a good web hosting provider from day one, so I don't have to go through the pain of a data migration. Which web host would you choose?"pa href="http://ask.slashdot.org/story/10/02/22/0215236/Things-To-Look-For-In-a-Web-Hosting-Company?from=rss"img src="http://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?from=rssamp;op=imageamp;style=h0amp;sid=10/02/22/0215236"/a/ppa href="http://ask.slashdot.org/story/10/02/22/0215236/Things-To-Look-For-In-a-Web-Hosting-Company?from=rss"Read more of this story/a at Slashdot./p pa href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/lRqrDV6HyxM9Y89UpzDARXGOJSw/0/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/lRqrDV6HyxM9Y89UpzDARXGOJSw/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/abr/ a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/lRqrDV6HyxM9Y89UpzDARXGOJSw/1/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/lRqrDV6HyxM9Y89UpzDARXGOJSw/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/a/pimg src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Slashdot/slashdot/~4/S-rdiHFxrGI" height="1" width="1"/
