>>and for remote management. That's good. It would helps in development and debugging too.

The backup worked very well, thanks. Though, I haven't tried a restore yet. One question: What is the policy of jodohost on SQL server databases. Can they be used from any web site, not even hosted on jodohost? Is that what a remote connection means? Thanks, Sanjay

Hi George, Thank you for pointing this out. Yes, I can see two links there, Download backup and Restore backup. But there is no login prompt. I tried clicking it but it didn't do anything for a while so I stopped. I don't want to try it more without full knowledge. But that seems to be the...

While waiting for a reply here, I tried something on a web site at another windows hosting company. I created a .BAK file of my local database. Then, I used a nice tool called MyLittleAdmin for SQL Server 2005 at this other company to restore this .BAK file from my local disk to a database on...

Another discovery--I'm enjoying this now:) I can connect to the database server using SQL Server Management Studio Express. But there is something confusing: As soon as I login, I see the databases belonging to "all" the users. It took quite a while for me to find my own database in this big...

I just discovered that there is a database publishing wizard from Microsoft that can do the job. But it requires to connect to a web service at Jodohost. Does Jodohost have a web service to logon to the sql 2005 database server? If so, it would become much easier to use this tool.

How do I duplicate a local ms sql server express database in your regular ms sql server database? I can create a .sql file locally containing both data and schema. But in the database control panel, I see only a small execute sql script control. Can it execute large scripts? What other ways...

Hi Riley, I'm sorry I couldn't post a reply as I didn't get notified of this message. What you say seems like a good idea. Reliability issue was only with email management. So I am now hosting a new web site on that other host, and I can still use it for this purpose. However, I have not...

I am asing about the express edition. Is that supported?

Are these database files supported on Windows shared hosting?

I understand. But right now, my only requirement is to be able to generate license codes. It does not seem justified when I can easily host an inexpensive website ($10) elsewhere to do this. I'd rather have given this little extra fee to jodohost had there been a reasonable alternative.

In fact, if I think about it, even $40 VPS is not an option as it is more work for me. Only $69 SD will do. Increasing my expenses 5.5 times just for this little extra feature does not seem justified.

Then there should be a reasonably priced alternative hosting plan. Jumping from $12 directly to $69/$40 per month is a big hurdle. That's why long time customers like me go looking for other hosting when you can retain them.

It's just a question of trusting a long time customer. I need to call a third party dll to generate license codes for my software. It's a typical requirement of many Windows developers today.

Thanks for replying. Actually, I was able to debug the problem by using some nice development tools for FireFox. I don't remember exactly but the domain parameter had to e changed to fix this.

In that case, how do I proceed? Just send a ticket to upgrade to SD and you charge my account? I'm asking because this won't be a new account sign up but a move.

Thanks. Seems like a great deal! One more doubt. Will the nameservers be the same as NS1.JODOSHARED.COM or will they be different? I hope they are different so that old site continues working till DNS propagates. Also, I suppose, before changing the name servers, I can test the web site...

You didn't answer/assure me on smooth transition. In my last attempt to another company, I had lots of email problems where they had to repeatedly fix some DNS issues that Plesk caused. It was not related to DNS transition. That I can understand. With your past experience of moving sites to...

Hi Stephen, Well, I tried moving the web site and it worked fine for the dll stuff. But I had a bitter experience on the email account management. The plesk control panel has lot of bugs and they kept on fixing some DNS entries but it kept on corrupting them on each change. I would rather not...

It does store and forward. I was confused due to gmail hiding the identical msg. The mailbox is forwarding to gmail and I also have a gmail auto fetch by pop for the mailbox. What gmail does is clubs both messages into one as it has identical text. Hence, I got the impression that either store...
