Chuck,

Out of curiosity, have you tried our demo 
(http://campsite-demo.campware.org/admin)? 

Other than that, wait for the hosters to wake up and see if they can offer 
you some testing deal (they are based in Prague and Amman, respectively). 

The nonroot access has been tried, but as far as I can remember, Mugur, 
the chief developer was warning against it (read: it was a hard thing with 
uncertain success). And BTW, we are in the process of rewriting the 
Campsite parser into php, so you could host it wherever. Unfortunately, 
other demands on the development team have pushed this all the way to 
February. 

Best,

Sava

Sava,

I saw on the Campsite - site - that there was an option for
non-root access.  We've been trying now for weeks to test
Campsite and to find a hosting company that we can use for the
testing and have had no luck!

We really think that Campsite is what we've spent two years
searching for but until we can fully test we can't be sure.

Thanks,

chuck

&gt; Hi Chuck, <br>
&gt; &nbsp;<br>
&gt; You need root access to a Linux or FreeBSD machine to install<br>
&gt; Campsite. Once you install it, there is no need to have root<br>
&gt; access. So if your friendly provider gives it to you<br>
&gt; temporarily, you are in business. &nbsp;<br>
&gt; &nbsp;<br>
&gt; What somewhat puzzles me is how you can have dedicated servers<br>
&gt; without root access? I thought those were by definition servers with full root access?<br>
&gt; &nbsp;<br>
&gt; Otherwise, we have some professional Campsite hosters among<br>
&gt; our community and they are on this list. <br>
&gt; &nbsp;<br>
&gt; Best regards, <br>
&gt; &nbsp;<br>
&gt; Sava <br>
