Hi Chuck,

You need root access to a Linux or FreeBSD machine to install Campsite. 
Once you install it, there is no need to have root access. So if your 
friendly provider gives it to you temporarily, you are in business. 

What somewhat puzzles me is how you can have dedicated servers without 
root access? I thought those were by definition servers with full root 
access?

Otherwise, we have some professional Campsite hosters among our community 
and they are on this list.

Best regards,

Sava

Am I understanding that Campsite will not install or run unless we have 
root access?

We have both dedicated and shared servers and niether of our hosting 
companies will give us root access.

Is there any other option with installing Campsite?

Thanks,

chuck evans
