The Virtual Server System uses the idea of multiplexing a
single UNIX server into multiple virtual machines.
Each virtual server user will get their own set of virtual
services that they may customize to their liking or needs.
Each virtual server has its own unique domain name and
IP address.
When a request comes in, the Virtual Server System
will determine which virtual server will service the request
based on this unique IP address and then invoke the
appropriate service to respond to the request. Therefore
each virtual server user may have his own custom
configuration, individual log files, custom CGIs, etc.!
Why get a Virtual Server
The Virtual Server System gives you
Internet services such as World Wide Web, FTP, E-mail, and more at a
fraction of the cost of a dedicated server without compromising
power and flexibility.
The design of our Virtual
Server System is to maximize customer's use, control, and design of their
own site. This is quite unlike "Virtual Hosting", such as Apache and
others, which merely spoofs the
domain name of a company to point to a subdirectory of a server
controlled by someone else.
Virtual Server Features
A Little Technology Shoppe, LLC's Virtual Server System
comes with its own configuration files, cgi-bin, and access logs. The Virtual
Server System also comes with an FTP server (anonymous and multi-user),
unlimited e-mail POP accounts and e-mail aliasing, with full access
to your own "etc/aliases" and "etc/sendmail.cf" files. Mailing lists,
list servers, and autoresponders can be easily installed on any of our virtual
servers. Netscape compatible encryption is also available to make
your Virtual Server transactions secure! By providing all of these
features in a virtual environment, the Virtual Server System is
redefining the word "virtual", bringing more control and power to the
WWW market.
Thus the Virtual Server System helps you in many ways! By
sharing the UNIX server, you save thousands of dollars
while still maintaining a high speed Internet connection. The
virtual server is also far easier to maintain
than a dedicated server because most of the work is
done for you.
