March 14th, 2008, 6:17 PM

In a VPS, do I have complete control over the software (and versions) that are installed on the system? For instance, if I require an MTA on the system am I free to install it? If I simply want to run a piece of, say, perl code that listens on a certain port and accepts connections am I able to do so?
