Announcing the 2nd generation of Virtual Private Servers (VPS) May 2003 Peter M. Abraham We are pleased to announce the next generation of Virtual Private Server technology. Inspired by the direct input of our customers, our second generation VPS offers more power and flexibility, which extends a number of new opportunities.  The 2nd generation VPS is the closest thing to having a managed dedicated server. The 2nd generation VPS includes root access, multiple shell accounts, more robust and secure sub hosting, and the ability to readily install thousands of applications. Additionally, the 2nd generation VPS supports enhanced “fair share” technology, which protects the resources allocated to each VPS.  This unique technology is the best defense in preventing any single VPS from abusing resources and, ultimately, keeping your website and applications performing consistently.  The 2nd generation VPS also includes ample disk space, and free SSL.  The 2nd generation VPS is based on standard FreeBSD UNIX, which means many of the customizations that are unique to our other VPS plans are no longer required.  What this really means to you is the 2nd generation VPS fosters ease of programming, application installation and configuration, and systems integration.  For example, with 2nd generation VPS you don’t have to worry about the dual file system view of “virtual” and “non-virtual” modes that complicate programming and application installation on the other VPS plans.  The 2nd generation VPS is the closest thing to having your own dedicated server.  Look what you can do with the new VPS technology: Root access for maximum control over users and applications Configure multiple shell accounts Host unlimited email accounts Offer robust and secure sub hosting Reboot, start, and stop your VPS Access thousands of applications in the FreeBSD Ports Collection Install and configure the applications of your choice The 2nd generation of Dynamic Net Virtual Private Servers can be seen at our Dynamic Net web site.  All new orders will be placed on the 2nd generation technology (we are currently working on 2nd generation technology for the Solaris VPS servers).
