trq Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Why the bin? Windows isn't exactly regarded as the best OS to use for a server.

What do u recommend, i need to run a bat file from the server? If linux etc then say where i should get from.

trq Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 What do u recommend, i need to run a bat file from the server? I would recommend Linux or BSD. Basing your entire host OS on the fact that it needs to execute a bat file is ridiculous, what does this bat file do? If linux etc then say where i should get from. There is a sticky at the top of this board that covers recommended hosts.

zq29 Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 WebFusion should be good - Their entry Win 2k3 servers are ~£60 a month. I have a few (higher-end) Linux servers with their subsidiary DonHost, they're a little more expensive (I'm not sure why), but I can't fault their service.

448191 Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 No offense, but I seriously doubt you can create server software of any kind using just a windows batch file. What's more likely is that this file executes some binary, the server software. Maybe if you were to give us a little more accurate info we would be able to give you more, and better advice. For example, why are you so positive you need a *dedicated* server? Perhaps a VPS would suffice? What kind of server software are we talking? Maybe it has a *nix version, it's multi-platform or there's a better alternative that'll run on Linux. Of course if you prefer Windows because you don't know how to manage a nix server, that is a good a reason as any, but Windows servers are usually slightly more expensive and you do say you are looking for cheap.
