And this is precisely why an entire VPS industry has sprouted over the past few years. As someone stated down thread, give your customers what they want and charge them accordingly. This is trivially easy to do with your choice of hypervisor with memory consolidation (same page merging) and a guest OS template. If your pool of IPv4 addresses is limited charge them extra for that. If they're exhausted, well, you can go IPv6 only but that really has downsides. Here's an even better idea. Do what everyone else in your shoes does: partner with a VPS provider and farm the bulk of this out. There are tons of small companies that do exactly this. They buy X number of VPS instances each with an IP address from a provider and rebrand them. The VPS provider does all the heavy lifting WRT provisioning. You would simply do the customization for your individual customers, i.e. DNS, hostname, domain name, certificate, etc. A basic VPS for this kind of thing can normally be had for well less than $10/month. The really stripped down VPS services I see offered are $4.95/month. All prices USD. If you already have a mailbox (IMAP/POP) server that currently handles MX duty for all these customers, moving MX to these VPS instances and relaying the mail to your mailbox server is easy as well. -- Stan
