Thanks again, guys. I didn't know about those, and yes, they matter quite a
bit for our work.
I will say a few good words about GoDaddy based on my experiences with them
over the last year. GoDaddy has been a very reliable host, and their
customer service is responsive. Their online tools are reasonably intuitive.
I like their FAQ and their prices are excellent.
That all said the shared hosting seems best for "dumb" deployments of static
content. The restrictions make life very difficult for any kind of advanced
deployment that involves your application communicating with other places.
The inability to connect to SQL Server databases via Enterprise manager is
not a show-stopper, but it makes life much, much harder than it should be.
I would appreciate hearing other recommendations that folks might have for
web hosts.
Thanks,

>>I am afraid that the solution here is to dump godaddy.com and find another
hoster. It didn't take me more than 10 minutes to dump them when I found
out
I could not even make an HTTPWebRequest from the site I deployed due to
their
ridiculous restrictions.
Absolutely! I've never known any developer with a good word to say about
this ISP...
