Hi:

I'm considering Linode VDS to host my and my clients' account. Does Linode come with CPanel/Web Host Manager? If not, is it possible to install and how much does it cost to use them?

Alternatively, are there other ways (packages) that allow one to easily setup and manage several domains and accounts?

Thanks,

A Linode "comes" only with what is provided by the distro images. I know of no distro that includes CPanel. You can always install it yourself, or use Webmin, which seems to be popular.
