Shlomi Change your hosting provider if you have constraints like that. We use John Companies ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) where you get a virtual server with all the trimmings and great service for 75/month or 45/month for open source contributors like yourself. We run 3 instances of Aolserver(oacs3,4,5) and Apache/Php/MySQL with Mambo so I reckon you cant beat the price/performance. I know this is almost a "religious" issue but for my money, OpenAcs is very accessible - i know Aolserver is considered a little off-beat but its a great app server its a breeze to install and operate. PG 7.x is also a great rdbms - it's also less popular than mysql but its way ahead in many areas.
