Alternative to servage.net

Hello

I am finished with servage.net. Today the databases for all my sites were hacked and every table got deleted. And my account has also been hacked about 3 times. I am looking for some hosting with better security.

It is ok if it costs twice as much.
Any suggestions?

Where is my forum topic ??? Is it really so hard to embed video with Drupal ???

I never got help with embedding video. Is it really so hard .. and now the forum topic has been moved. What's up ? Where did it go ? I clicked on the link but it doesn't take me to anywhere helpful. This is a little frustrating.

Is VCS enough for my needs ?

I have 17 reseller accounts at Lunarpages. Of the 17 accounts most of them are wordpress sites. These sites differ from being blogs, to corporate sites and even conference sites.

I checked out VPS and it is a bit cheaper in the long run than paying 5 - 9 usd per new client I add. ( I can add more accounts without paying on VCS of course ) so I am thinking of migrating all 17 accounts to a VPS. The VPS solution they offer has 512MB Memory, 20GB Disk Space and 1000 GB Bandwidth.

Any nginx experts around?

I've been following the Nginx + PHP-FPM + APC = awesome tutorial to setup nginx. The performance gains look well worth the battle so I thought I would try it on my laptop before moving to a production server.
So far everything has gone well, I can serve up static content and display a simple php file calling phpinfo();
However when I try installing drupal firefox the install.php file will download in the download manager (raw php code) instead of being displayed in the browser.

Is there anything that might cause nginx not to send files to php for processing?

No doubt I have to tweak my nginx.conf, but I don't have much knowledge on this. I've tried tweaking a few things but so far no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here is my nginx.conf

server {
listen 80;
server_name localhost;

access_log /var/log/nginx_access.log main;
error_log /var/log/nginx_error.log debug;

root /var/www/default/pub;
index index.php;

if (!-e $request_filename) {
rewrite ^/(.*)$ /index.php?q=$1 last;
}

error_page 404 index.php;

# hide protected files
#location ~* \.(engine|inc|info|install|module|profile|po|sh|.*sql|theme|#tpl(\.php)?|xtmpl)$|^(code-style\.pl|Entries.*|Repository|Root|Tag|Template)#$ {
# deny all;

Affordable VPS hosting that doesn't suck

I'm building a Drupal-based site for a hobby I'm involved in. The Drupal part has gone quite well...I've written the modules I need to write. But I'm in need of some better hosting...DreamHost's shared hosting has worked for me, but this site needs a daemon script to run, and running daemon scripts on shared hosting is not a good idea :) So I'm searching for a VPS solution. DreamHost's VPS will result in my database being on a different server, which will cause serious performance problems. So I'm looking elsewhere.

I'm not expecting high traffic levels (5000 hits per day would surprise me, and if the traffic gets that high it will be mostly anonymous users), and my modules aren't terribly complicated other than some expensive database queries. So how much RAM do I need to look for? Every host I've seen offers more disk space and data transfer than I need, so RAM is really the only variable. If it weren't for the daemon script, this is a site that would be fine on shared hosting.
