Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hello, I have been looking through your FreeBSD web site trying to answere a question i have but i am finding that i can't answer this question by myself. I hope that you could answer my question or possibly point me in the right dirrection. My question(s) is: I was thinking of hosting my own Internet site using my computer, is that possible using FreeBSD? If so what else will I need to make this possible? The university that i am attending run three unix base systems for their web server, e-mail, and other stuff. If i had FreeBSD, is there a way that i connect to their computers? The classes i am taking at this university have my using unix on occasions, could i use FreeBSD on my computer to learn more and do some of my work on my computer rather than using Hyper Terminal (W95) to connect to the Universities computers? Thank you for your time! =-) Stephen "Stick" Hazen sjh10@axe.humboldt.edu stick11@razorlogic.com http://www.humboldt.edu/~sjh10
