All the options that are planned for the "final" version are not yet available, but we're delivering you the Beta as it is, but with nonetheless a large number of stable features (we hope) and options.

The following may now be used:
  • Gandi Hosting in the "Manual Install" mode with:
    • Mandriva 2008.0
    • Ubuntu 7.10
    • CentOs 5
    • Fedora Core 7
    • Debian 4
  • Gandi Auto Install (custom mode) with:
    • Apache 2.0
    • MySQL 5.0
    • ProFTPd
  • Gandi Auto Install (easy mode) with:
    • LAMP Server
  • Disk management
  • Share management
What you cannot do yet:
  • Add server shares via the website
  • Add disk quota via the website
  • Use Open SUSE 10.3 in Gandi MI (Manual Install) mode

We have a long list of bugs in our internal reporting tool (Trac, in case you were wondering), but it would be difficult to transfer all of them to our Alpha-Beta Wiki page.

Also, it is possible that you might tell us bugs that we are already aware of: don't worry about that!
We will find some new ones in there ;)

We will try to keep YOUR bug list updated with regards to OURS so that you can test it after we fix it. We will also keep you informed as to the version in question, so that everyone can be on the same page with regards to the big fixes and improvements.

At the time of the activation of your accounts as Beta testers, we are 4,580 strong.

Your Hosting account is already created: all that remains, is for you to do is to go to the Server Overview and attribute your two server shares to whatever you want. Each share also includes 5 GB of disk space, that you can distribute to as you wish to your server(s).

Note that in the case of Gandi Auto Install, you must have available quota, because the packages will be installed on them.

Those among you that would like to have more shares and/or disks can let us know by writing to us at beta.hosting@gandi.net. The only constraing is that this request be justified by a real testing need of course :)
