in reply to [OT] Providing a Windows ppm repo at minimal cost

How much disk space & bandwidth are we talking about?

And what kind of access do you require ? is FTP only enough?

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    Disk space should come in at less than 1 Gb (though might grow over time, as most things do). Bandwidth shouldn't be much of a consideration - the modules that I've got in mind are my own Math::* modules, PDL, Net-SSH2, Gtk2-GladeXML (and its dependencies) along with a few others. I don't think any of them are in high demand.

    I probably should be so cautious as to require something more secure than FTP .... but I'm not :-)

    Anyway, thanks for all of the replies. I was curious about greengeeks so I've given them a go ... they were pretty efficient at processing my credit card payment, but that's about as far as it's got. If it goes pear-shaped I at least now have (courtesy of the replies) some reliable alternatives to fall back on.

    Thanks guys.

    Cheers,
    Rob
