Kia ora all,
Just an update on the known working webhosts list at http://doc.silverstripe.org/suggested-web-hosts#working_webhosts
I have linux hosting with Openhost in New Zealand. I had a few hiccups to start with but with assistance from DesignCity and AJShort on the #silverstripe IRC channel, they have been ironed out nicely!
If you get hosting with Openhost, just keep the following in mind...
1) You will need to email Openhost Support and have them
- Turn Off PHP Safe Mode (On by default)
- Turn On mod_rewrite
- Turn Off mbstring.function_overload
2) You will also need to create your .htaccess file manually, and saving in ascii format.

Cheers to DesignCity and AJShort for their help!
