Panix has been providing Internet connections since 1989. In the years since then, we've developed a reputation for technical know-how, reliability and customer service unmatched by today's Internet "superstores".

All Panix accounts feature shell login access to our UNIX hosts; email, USENET newsgroups, and many popular UNIX apps, utilities, and compilers are available online.

In addition, you get 500 MB of disk space on Panix, protected by our RAID fileserver with multiple daily snapshots of your directories and nightly tape backups. You can use this space to store files for later download, keep copies of your email, set up your personal Web page, or all three.

Personal Web pages:

Personal web pages (on the "www.panix.com" server) are included with all Panix single-user accounts.

You can activate your Web directory by just calling the office, or by running the "charlotte" command from your UNIX shell. We have a set of instructions available to our users, which covers this and many common site maintenance tasks.

Some notes about Panix personal Web pages:

• Your page is allowed 1 GB per month of free Web traffic ("hits") from outside Panix (i.e. the panix.com or access.net domains). You'll be billed $1/GB of traffic your page gets beyond that.
• If you choose, you can limit your page so that it shuts down after a set amount of traffic.
  Your page will become available again at the start of your next billing month, and this feature will ensure that you never be billed for transfers beyond your chosen limit. You may access this limiting utility via setup.panix.com. Look for the link beginning with "Limit web transfer charges..." under the Accounting section.
• Panix personal Web pages have full personal CGI privileges; check out the Panix Web FAQ for details.
• Files in your Web directory are counted toward your disk usage on Panix, just like all files you own on the system.
• Panix will not perform Secondary DNS for personal web pages.

MySQL database:

Panix offers MySQL as an add-on to single user accounts.

• $10/month ($100/year prepaid) per database.
• No setup fee

Security and encryption:

Panix provides a number of enhanced security options to its users. From the everyday safety of a hard-to-crack password, to "s/key" One-Time Password capability, to fully encrypted authentication and communication via Kerberos and SSH, Panix can help you protect your account from unauthorized access.
If you'd like more info about the security enhancements we offer, just drop us a line.

Panix "Cheap Web" domain hosting:
