Peter,
Good points! I'm happy to see that you have also found 1and1.com to be
useful as it will be my first website. ;-)
I've been reading that different recipes require all sorts of security
setups that are different from the Windows environment (such as 770,
etc.) and since I'm very familiar with Windows I would prefer to have my
site on a Windows server. Also, there seem to be settings that I have
to change for different recipes to work and at times they have 2
different explanations (one for Windows and one for Linux).
Is the environment that different?
Thanks,
Chris

I don't know if all windows setups are like this, but I was on an IIS
and I found a lot of limitations in connection with rewrite rules and
etc. I just went with 1and1.com as well and didn't think twice before
going with linux -- if there's any downside to that I haven't seen it
yet...
Just FYI I don't think there's any different addons or whatever for
pmwiki on different platforms. Maybe that's not what you meant, tho...?
