Re: [MLUG] Frame Relay or Better

[Vern Green <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

Call me old fashioned and call me crazy if you want. 

The mail production servers are colocated as they should be, cost wise
there really is no better option.

The problem is I like to do my development on seperate servers, call
me nuts, but I have had too many developers write code that puts the
server into a major recursive loop and essentially shuts down the
whole shooting match. I personally have never done this, but I know
the guys that work for me do this almost weekly.

I would much rather crash a development server than crash the main
server. So my routine is to develop on a code base, once that code
base is complete, I post it to an internet server, independent, for
people to test. I might be crazy, but I find having that development
server sitting next to me much more efficient than doing it all over
the wire.

Besides, the company is going to pay for it, so I would at least like
to get a connection that I can be happy about.
