Here it their forum thread on the = matter.

http://forums.hostgator.com/please-consider-webdav-suppo= rt-t25786.html?t=3D25786

But, like I said I have it. =

Correction to my previous post…. the icon says = “Web Disk”

The cpanel url for WebDAV would be:

your.url:port/frontend/x3/webdav/accounts_webdav.html=

From that page you have a form to add /users/directories passwords.

What exactly would = constitute an abuse of WebDAV?

I am not a paranoid security geek but I've used hostgator.com for = several
years and love it.
I have about 20 sites hosted on one shared account.
It's $12.95 a month for unlimited everything.
They offer a selection of 3 different webmail clients one of which is = horde.
They have:
IMAP
SSH
Private SSL
Dedicated static IP
Anonymous FTP

They say they don't offer WebDAV because people abuse it; However, I = have
it. It might not have all the geeky features possible. They = call it
"webfolders" in the cpanel.
I am using "webfolders" for publishing/sharing icalendars from sunbird and
outlook 2007.
They offer ruby on rails and python(no zope)
You can customize your php.ini
You can install pear modules.

I have cURL scraping cron jobs.
I even used a perl cgi script that lets me broadcast live TV/Radio = stations.
It works well but they have been good to me and I don't want to be = "that
guy".

They have excellent support staff. Last time I called them was = over a year
ago to ask if I could get them to give me the ability to use cURL from = a
bash shell. He said "Yes, hold on" I heard some fast = pattering on a
keyboard and he said "done, is there anything else I can help you with?"

If you need more than that I would rent a dedicated server from
theplanet.com
https://www.theplanet.com/servers/
If you talk to a rep you can get a better deal than what is listed. = They
doubled my ram and upped my monthly bandwidth to 5TB for free. You = can get
a quad core Xeon for under $200 a month.

My thought are that if you are hosting more than hostgator can handle = you
should be charging your clients enough to justify a dedicated box at
theplanet. My hostgator account's server is in theplanet's = datacenter.

If you want windows hosting I would recommend powerdnn.com. I was at their
offices today and they seem to have a top notch operation.

He described what I can only summarise as "Webhosting++":

[13:50:56] <alexpgates> Can anyone recommend an alternative to = Dreamhost for
a
design firm in Omaha? A local hosting company would be ideal... but we = are
open to anything. We aren't unix admins... we just need something = reliable
that allows us to do simple things like ssh, run soem cron jobs, = etc....
something that will grow as we grow. Any suggestions?
[13:53:50] <luke-jr> alexpgates: sounds like you want a managed = VPS
[13:53:53] <luke-jr> which isn't cheap
[13:54:34] <alexpgates> a managed VPS sounds great.... define = "isn't cheap"
[13:56:40] <alexpgates> we just switched to a dreamhost vps - = terrible
situation.
[13:57:05] <TC-jmhobbs> I know that aplus has a managed VPS type = thing,
can't
attest to it though.
[13:57:28] <luke-jr> alexpgates: a managed VPS including Apache management
from me is $61/mo at the cheapest
[13:58:00] <luke-jr> http://lightfoot.dashjr.org/?page=3Dvps
[14:01:48] <luke-jr> alexpgates: might want to just wait for the = OLUG
datacenter to start
[14:02:14] <luke-jr> we can probably get OLUG guys a better deal = that way
[14:03:10] <alexpgates> luke-jr: your prices are very = reasonable.... when
is
the datacenter going to be available?
[14:03:30] <luke-jr> a few of the guys checked out a location on M = St the
other day, not sure what the results are
[14:04:47] <alexpgates> we don't mind paying more... because we = aren't
equipped for "Software upgrades, security, and similar proactive = services"
being our responsibility.
