Talking I did it

I decided last night to upgrade to VPS 2, but I first checked out a few other hosts, not because I was planning on leaving surpass, its been a great ride so far, Its more that I am cheap and was looking for the best bang for the buck sort of a deal, but everywhere I looked, and I checked out tons of em, nothing could even come close to space, bandwidth, and features that surpass offers. I had a vps and a server before, several years ago, but where I had my vps the unnamed host had worse uptime than my grandmothers modem, which was another reason I was worried about moving.

Anyway so after circling the signup form about 5 different times I finally talked myself into doing it, I put the order in last night so now its just waiting for the setup and the welcome email, it will probably be awhile but I dont think I have refreshed my yahoo inbox so many times in my life.

Oh and if anyone knows, is the firewall initially setup or do I need to request it? and can you use just one of the IP's for the nameservers?

I guess I will have to get familiar with red hat again. Which is cool, anyone know a good tutorial site or primer for red hat/centos? I run suse at home.

thanks...
