Yes, I had a fixed IP at Demon which was great. I considered hosting a small web site - but SWMBO isn't too keen on leaving 'stuff' plugged in and running when we are not at home. Fair enough - if the house burned down due to some (cheap) electric gizmo, we wouldn't be too happy! >It is not difficult setting up the required Linux server - a standard >Ubuntu install is all that is needed to set up the simple web server. >IMAP and Asterisk (VOIP) are a different matters though. SUSE for me. I have my database(s) running on that plus my accounts etc (Open Office). I have never used Windows on the new PC yet. >You could then satisfy Alison so to speak (8-)# Hmm, why use a single entendre when a double one will do nicely :o) Who knows, we might yet, one day, perhaps, possibly, think about maybe setting something up for her photos. Time, as they say, will tell. I did used to run Mambo on my laptop way back before the disc expired. That was interesting in itself - very professional looking. By the way, I sent you and Roy an email recently about my new address - as you requested - did you get it? I'm asking as I have had no feedback from you or Roy on the matter plus QL Today got delivered to the old address. ell, it would have been delivered there but the redirect kicked in and it came to use eventually. Cheers, Norman. _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
