I hear nothing but good things about www.dreamhost.com -- the dedicated hosting package is pretty reasonable and includes backups on a second drive in the unit. I don't think they advetise it, but you can ask for an unmanaged server at the same price if you want the second drive to yourself at the expense of backups. I was very happy with serverbeach.com. They're dirt cheap but offer no backups, no support beyond rebooting and reinstalling the base OS. That's probably fine for half the folks here. Someone else said they were now in spamhaus however, which surprises me because I'd heard they were very quick to unplug spammers' network cables until they could get things set right. I only left because the project that needed the kind of bandwidth they were offering had come to a close. Never a complaint, and if spammers are doing them in, it's a big loss. If you want to go with the really low end, www.jvds.com does small configurations with user mode linux for under $20 a month. You get root with uml, and you can choose Debian on any of them. They even have a $15 3 gig machine with 64m RAM and 20g/mo of bandwidth and discounts for folks hosting free software projects. jvds does have connectivity problems now and again where they're unreachable for a minute or two a couple times a week, however. That's fine for most websites, but it would be a headache for your main shell account. In a couple months they're supposed to get secondary bandwidth providers at the site that's had the most problems.
