You mentioned issues on production and thus the reason for not doing Dev, Demo, & Test Servers. Skytap provides virtual environments with 32 and 64 bit windows, linux, and solaris images. You also get storage, and the ability to snapshot entire VM's and environments in a couple clicks. It makes it easy to revert back to past builds and let you turn on copies when others die. Skytap is the leader in VM's via a browser and with a low price point and month2month services it's easy to start and see value for a low amount of dollars. send me a note and I can send over some whitepapers I have Chuck,

I tried setting up some gogrid servers last night and ran into the no ssh problem as well. I tried a CentOS and a RH, both would start up but I couldn't connect. The support guy in chat, after going quiet for what seemed like 20 minutes, told me that it was a known problem (I don't know for how long) where the "public interface does not get configured due to a VLAN issue". All I know is I couldn't ssh or even ping the server. Ultimately we left it unresolved with an escalated trouble ticket. I will say that after using the gogrid interface, I'm pretty excited about its potential. I too was getting ready to set up development and test servers. Bad news Chuck.
