Hi, I've used linux for years but the BSD Now podcast has me fired up about BSD. I'm thinking of resurrecting my domain name web and mail servers with FreeBSD. Can you recommend a place/procedure by which I can easily (and cheaply) get up and running with a "publicly accessible" FreeBSD machine connected to the internet on which I can run a web and mail server? Maybe I'll hookup a VPN for use when I am on a public connection (e.g. starbucks). The server will be under essentially no load. The way I see it I have these options: 1. Buy and run machines from home and figure out a scheme to deal with my dynamic ip address 2. Co-location (which I've never done but I think I understand the concept) 3. Cloud (which I don't understand) Thanks for your help, Chris
