Since virtual web hosting has no technical justification for IP space, I refuse it. SSL and FTP are techincal justifications for an IP per site.
Right. Also, monthly bandwidth monitoring/shaping/capping are more easily done using one ip per hosted domain, or ftp site, or whatever. Otherwise you are parsing logs or using 3rd party apache modules.
*Shrug* I've been doing IP allocations for 14 years and that's never been mentioned to me. I suspect that anyone with enough traffic to need traffic shaping has dedicated hosts or virtual servers, which get a unique IP each. -- Jo Rhett Net Consonance : consonant endings by net philanthropy, open source and other randomness
