But anyway, yes, you can do it. Although it will be much slower, as you could imagine, but you can accomplosh that task. First install Apache; since you are on a 56K modem, you will be given a dynamic IP from their DHCP server, and meanwhile you are online, you can use that IP to identify your web server, Apache, or get a free trial of dynamic IP to sub-domain name hosts. One of them is TZO and others are deerfield.com, try those; those are what you need and are free. But remember, your 56K like is a lot more prone to being disconnected from the Internet; you know, the ISP's connection drop, etc., etc... But that is a start.
