I use a few things--

Apache web server (www.apache.org) DNStoGo (www.dnstogo.com (iirc)) and a Compaq p2300 with a 3.2 gig HD running Windows 2000 (basically so I can use the built-in FTP functionality of Win2K.)

That’s it. The cable company uses dynamically assigned IP addresses, so sometimes the IP on my system changes. That doesn’t matter ‘cause DNS2Go has a little applet on my system that sends the new IP to their servers, so domain forwarding for http://sparky.i989.net always points to my system.

Works quite well. The whole thing was basically free (the Compaq system is so old that my company let me have it, Apache is FreeWare, and DNS2Go was freeware, but now they’re charging 14 bucks a year--still woth the price :)

14 bucks so I can have my own web server--that’s good ‘nuff for me

Just let me know if there’s anything else...

Could you walk me through setting up the Apache to put my pages on the web? Or just a FAQ or something. I’ve read the documentation and Apache FAQs, and I just can’t seem to understand much of it. I don’t think I’m that much of an “advanced” computer user!

Thanks Max
