Greetings-

A political group for which I volunteer is looking for a new web hosting 
company. It's a small website, mostly static, and without need of database 
or even probably cgi services. However, I've had enough trouble with 
companies that require me to go through a web interface that having a 
shell is a must.  Here's what I'm looking for:

- Cheap (we have no budget; I pay for the hosting out of my pocket)
- Linux-based, preferably debian but I don't really care which distro
- Shell access
- Must allow postings of political claims as the group's position, and 
therefore not be connected with UNC or any other governmental entity 
(i.e., ibiblio is not an option for this site)
- Since it's a NC group, would prefer that the hosting company be in NC.

Thanks for any advice-
Andy
