[Simh] C9.io

[Joseph Oprysko]

Dan, it is easy peasy, but not quite free, as if you want 24/7 access to
the box, you have to keep the system running 24-7, so electricity costs.
Plus, I’m planning on having others log in as well, thus I don’t want to
open up my network like that. That’s why I’m looking for a free
hosted/Cloud solution. That way someone else can deal with the rest of the
network security. I do enough of that for work anyway, don’t want to have
to monitor my home network as thoroughly.
