      | Set up a home server? Hello you brilliant little devils, This grumpy old man asks please could you lend some of your knowledge and explain how to make this work? I have installed 2003 Enterprise on an older (like me) socket370 P3 with dual 1000/256/133. I have 2Gb Registered ecc 133 ram, 1 80 gig WD as C:\, and 2 Maxtor 160gig both partitioned to 80's. It has a 3Com Etherlink XL 10/100 PCI For Complete PC Managment NIC (3C905C-TX) (sorry, thats what it calls itself), and various removables and pci cards. I am connected through a router (along with 4 other ppls 'puters) to Cable Modem that allows all to download @ around 650-850kps. ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/website-development/108679-set-up-a-home-server.html My question.....finally....How do I publish websites with it? What will I need to make a permenant IP, where do I get Nameservers, does 2003 have all the tools I'll need? I have Windows disks for SQL server 2000, Systems Managment Server 20,Operations Manager 2000... none of which I know a freeking thing about. I'm not looking to set up hosting but to to have direct access to several sites while I learn to tweek them. Any thoughts, Ideas, Suggestions, Links, keeping in mind that I stand here a c0mplete n00b and will most likely require many (virtual) slaps for my n00bism before this is over. >>>>>>>>>>> I have NP$ <<<<<<<<<<<< obtained just for this educational process and will gladly part with large amounts of it to get this done quickly and properly. So step up.... Who will help this feeble, old, not as bright as he once was, '60 survivor to live out his final days with this small measure of kindness. Thats my story, and I'm sticking to it. Thanks in advance, kid5150 Please PM... I will be on and off all this evening.

| This may not be the answer your looking for but I'm sure it will help. I used to run my own home server and I used this server software called Abyss Web Server. It's available at http://www.aprelium.com/. If you were interested in using that I would be able to help you install it. I know you can also use Apache but I found it a bit to complicated. Abyss is just an easy way to get up and going. You can even install PHP, ASP, etc. very easily. Hope this helps. EDIT: I forgot to mention the software is free! |

| Thanks guys, I have tried both Apache & Abyss before and it wasnt what I was looking for. What I want to do is see if I, with help, can make 2003 work for me. I do appreciate your posts though, however I need specfic instruction on setting up Windows 2003 Enterprise. I have gone through MS everything and just dont get it. Any "BillsToolzForFoolz" masters out there? Thanks again kjmz and majinbuu1023. kid5150

| Hello Pal, I am a microsoft certified professional and system administrator So i will be able to help you to a limit Enterprise 2003 is not a solution for web servers Try getting Web 2003 Then after the web installation is complete you have to install the bundled application server package which contains asp.net, .net framework and IIS 6.0 which is the real web server. After the installation is complete, you will have to access your website Yes you need a static ip if you want connected 24/7 but for homeservers, get a domain for USD 16 from no-ip.com or free subdomain of them and download the dynamic dns update software from them. Next install the dynamic dns updates software, which updates your current ip to domain. Next you have to configure the web server. Goto run and type "inetmgr" without quotes which opens IIS control panel Goto the websites section shown on the left tab which will already have default website if you want you can keep it or delete it and right click "Websites" folder icon in it to create new site Go through those sections and try to do things yourself Try first with html and then php to install php, read the php documentation where they say how to install to iis Will reply with more details or contact me on msn at support@infoxyris.com for some help and tips cya --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Application server package can be found in Control Panel> Add remove pgms>windows components>application server ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=108679 Just select all the components of application server by double clicking it and selecting in the new dialogue ----------------------------------------------------------------------

   | Install Linux MEPIS, you can use that as a server. It will allow you to setup NS etc on your home computer. BUT, what speed is your connection to the internet? MEPIS is sooooo easy to install, nothing complicated and it has everything that you need on it already.
