Slicehost | Online Virtual Servers

Slicehost is a great service where you can essentially rent a virtual machine. They use Xen virtualization and so you can install a linux distribution (you get a choice) in your “slice”. You rent your slice based on the disk space, bandwidth and processor share (1/256th of a server I believe is their smallest slice.)

Anyway, I’ve used slicehost for a few interesting projects. One is an openvpn implementation to replace something like HotspotVPN usage.

I’ll collect references and tutorials for various purposes here. Some of the items listed here may not be exclusive to slicehost, but work for linux and ubuntu as well.

Setting up user directories under apache2 on ubuntu.

Setting up name based virtual hosting. (Again using apache2 on ubuntu linux).
