You'll be over-run with door knockers... I was thinking of hosting my own web server and ftp. My IPS provides me with 10 MB of webspace but I want the experience of setting up my own. And I have some friends that swap a lot of MP3's of Phish and Grateful Dead concerts and they mostly do it via ftp. I was gonna put up a non-anonymous ftp using something other than wu-ftp. > > In any event all I think you need is masquerading of your internal network. > All your machines would have local addresses of 192.168.0.xx or such > and your ADSL connected machine becomes the gateway to the Inet. I am going to set up my internal network (192.168.0.xx range) to masq through my firewall that has my external interface point to the 10.xxx.xxx.xxx that I have from my ISP. Problem is how do I get incoming connections routed to a 10.xxx.xxx,xxx private address. > Now I have my web server on my inet connected machine.

But I am willing to put in the work and have had some previous help in IP forwarding. It may take awhile but I am willing to give it my best. > > But dyndns is the way to go if you can't get your ISP to host your domain. They will host the domain for me but it all cost more money above and beyond my current ISP and DSL provide costs. And that is what I want to avoid is paying more money for stuf I am really just doing for fun right now. Thanks a bunch -- Tom Wilson Register Linux user # 199331 I used to be with it, then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it anymore and whats it seems strange and scary to me. _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
