[ILUG] Irish hosts that are technically competent and respect free speech?

[Pawel Bogucki]

That depends on the hosting plan. On old hosting servers you could
have ssh access if you insist (I had it) but now when they've moved to
virtuozzo and you won't get it.
You have shell access via virtuozzo panel and they won't give you pure
ssh access.
Installation of a lot of most popular software is automated via they
Installatron.

I think Michele Neylon can shed some more lights on details.
