I would advise you to stay far away from hosting environments that are that lame.
I certainly agree with that sentiment! Unfortunately
as a consultant you don't always get to specifiy the
environment. In a reply elsewhere in this thread
someone said I should be happy to be rid of the client.
There's more truth to that then I want to get in to here!
I bring up this extreeme case mainly as a lesson that
demonstrates the addage "keep an open mind".
Lots of Monks (including myself) become spoiled by
having environments that let them do whatever they
want/need to. Sometimes, thankfully rarely, you have to
resort to "bear skins and stone knives" to
practice your craft.
