So, step one is complete.  I have console access to my host environment.  Blue host does not have a cool wizard for Django setup, but the user forums have some good posts on this.  I will have to do some command line installs and chmods to make it work.  Blue host does allow SSH access, but I did not have a client for Windows 7.  I am a bit surprised Windows doesn’t build this in, and the field of third party candidates is pretty sketchy.  I have some experience with putty, but all the links I find are XP related.  I wasn’t sure it still worked on Windows 7.  Then there is Bitvise Tunnelier.  That doesn’t sound like anything I would want to willingly install (Worms tunnel don’t they?), but my brother-in-law had used it before.  I decided to give them a try, and so far, it looks good.  I was even able to get a Python command prompt.  I was glad python was already installed, but saddened to see it was version 2.6.6.  I have been playing with 2.7 at home.  I am not sure if I can upgrade this on my partition or not.
