I just got MacHTTP. Haven't got a chance to really use it yet. As for 
DNS I downloaded MacDNS which was the only free DNS server I could find 
but it doesn't work. Some OS error. But my Uncle has a DNS server which 
I use right now. Another option would be to just use the Web Sharing 
control panel.
