Hi Folks, I have got free bsd up and running at home for the past 2 weeks. The next step for me is to setup a webserver on the net ie. run a webserver from my home . I would appreciate if someone could share their experiences with doing this. Initially I would like to set a minimal system to test the viability of some ideas I have. The machine running the webserver would be dedicated to serve only webpages and some cgi stuff. I am a bit confused as to what the connectivity from the box to the ISP shd be like . Shd the machinebe setupa s a router or firewall. Needless to say that I have a lot of questions. I would appreciate if someone who is running a webserver from their home would share their setup and advice. I will be running apache as the webserver. Any book recomendations are also welcome. TIA .. Regards Ash ;)
