6 1 ReplyI think "VPS" in Christian's blog post does refer to shared hosting.
1 0 ReplyI think shared hosting there is more meant to refer to the older "upload your files in webmin and we'll shove them in /cgi-bin/ with everybody else's"-style hosting where multiple users sites are running on a single instance of a webserver versus a VPS giving you a VM with SSH access?
