Hi Jamie (or whoever comes first!),

I'm not sure if I've asked this before, but I'm really going to change web hosting in 1 weeks and this needs sorting!!!

On Register1, can you host multiple independent websites with different domains on the VDS packages?

I have 6 domains that need independent websites, and right now I have them on Uplinkearth which has the crappiest spam support ever. (Their hosting is great though). I also need to know if it's possible to access the MySQL databases through an external MySQL client. I use Navicat which I love (and it cost me a bit too). I'm just looking around but I need to make a decision by the end of this week.

Cheers,

BB

Do you need to set up a new virtual root for that? I could host my personal site on my VDS but I don't want Google picking it up under my business site scratchchin

I'm sorry, I'm thick, you'll have to bear with me.

www.mycompanywebsite.co.uk points at the 'root'

www.mymatesweddingwebsite.co.uk points at 'root'//mymateswedding

I have a robots.txt sat in www.mycompanywebsite.co.uk that specifically excludes the spider from the //mymateswedding directory

Just as I thought... I wanted to be sure it wouldn't bleed through to my business site, I've just not got a round to it yet.


[small]I really must sort my personal site out. It's orphaned and quite frankly it's woeful paperbag[/paperbag]

Thanks Plotty

Been in meetings all day..

As for Remote MySQL, no, this is specifically denied for security reasons (as is SSH)

Opening up MySQL to the world is just asking for someone to try a brute force / dictionary attack..

You do get full access via Localhost with phpMyAdmin.

My support staff will happily perform any works you require (database dumps / dump imports etc) for you.
