   The BBS is a small drop in the bucket when it comes to my tech, theres a fair   
   bit of equipment running in this tiny apartment. Its my preference to host as   
   much as I can at home, but OVH was the best VPS provider I've dealt with over   
   the years when I had a requirement at one time to run one.   
      
   Have always been a huge fan at home for Pfsense, Pfblocker-Ng and Snort, zero   
   problems here. Rack servers and commercial grade stuff in use; probably    
   overkill but whatever I was using at work I had found the best way to really    
   be good at my job was to go host the same setup at home.   
      
   RF> In any case I didn't mean to insult anyone for doing things the way you do,   
   RF> was more a response to how TJ was phrasing things which got under my skin a   
   RF> bit.   
      
   No insult taken... its words on a silly net...
