Zeus Server compatibility

I have been redesigning a site for a client and am just in the process of waiting for the full server environment info from their host. I have noticed though that they are using ’Zeus Server 3.3’ (OS unknown).

Has anyone tried MODx on Zeus? Will it play nice with MODx?

Here’s a couple of links on how Zeus does the mod_rewrite thing...

That was the only thing that came to mind that should be a problem. Otherwise, it should treat the php pretty much the same.

Thanks for replying. I saw about the rewrite/htaccess supporton their website earlier, but I saw elsewhere on the web that Zeus had significant compatibility increases for Apache htaccess/rewrite in version 4.

I am a little worried by deploying on this host, the current version of Zeus they have is 3.3 whereas the current release is 4.3r3. From what I can work out version 4 was a rather significant update.

Will have to contact the host for some more info I think.

I have found some info on deploying SEO URLs on Joomla which maybe interesting for anyone else looking at this server.

It appears you set rewrite configuration on a per-virtual server basis via a web-based control panel.
