You ought to call up your ISP and ask.  If they say no, call up a few
other ISPs.  Running Squeak is no more a security risk than running
CGI's, so if you can run CGI's you've got a good chance.  If you find an
ISP that is smart enough to realize this and let you do it, you might
want to post about them to the list.

And yes, you can run a Swiki server with the headless VM just fine.  It
will look like most any other Unix daemon in that mode.

By the way, it should probably be pointed out that there are non-Squeak
wiki servers that do run as CGI scripts.  I think Ward's original Wiki
is a perl script that runs this way....
