I clocked my DSL at 135kbps upstream, so I was like screw that...and went for cable...now abt 930kbps upstream...BUT I found out it is a dynamic IP address... Is there anyway to run a dns/mail/ftp/web(apache) server off of it? *Prays* pls let there be a way! Thanks

Bad. :-P lol, I\'ll be sure to... Thanks a lot for ALL your help man, I really appreciate it...Expect more questions later heheh

Confusing >.< but interesting...certain \"sheds some light\" on things...much light. Which would you most recommend for fairly capable 16 yr old wishing to learn? I guess the finaly test will be my own, trying diff. ones out..But do you have your own recommendation?

Ok, well let\'s say I have 10 websites, 3 getting decent amounts of traffic, nothing huge, just some images and text, clocked at abt 160kbs upstream (boo), the other 7 getting just irregular visits. Would there be much of a slow down? I ask because I plan to host some sites I make for others and I would want atleast a decent data rate... That leaves me with another question...What are major differences to the different OSs? I have used linux on occasion and never BSD...What are advantages/disadvantages (I know this can get to be a heated discussion ) I believe that my DSL is a static IP...

Hey..I have been toying with the idea of buying a server and setting it up in my room, so I don\'t hafta deal with other people hosting my stuff, and their limits, etc... But, I don\'t know the specifics of it exactly, and I would like to figure them out, hopefully with your help. First off, the server itself, I obviously don\'t need huge amounts of space, but I don\'t know what is good, and what isn\'t. I was thinking of getting the Dell PowerEdge 400/600sc, it\'s cheap, and I am not sure why I would need more. What do y\'all think of it? Any better suggestions? A big question now I have is if the DSL connection would hold up with it. I have a friend who has been running a mmorpg with abt 15-20 ppl on at once, lag-free of his computer, so I am thinking just hosting websites may work from my DSL. Anyone think differently? I have abt 100 more questison, but I dont wanna get too long, so that should be ok for now.. Thanks so much
