Peter,

You might want to check out reddit, specifically r/homelab. That subreddit
has a lot of good resources for the type of stuff you've described (check
the wiki).

This mailing list is more aimed at enterprise-level networking, so probably
not the best place to ask these kind of questions.

Best,
Ross

Hi Peter,
I might suggest that you start at the beginning, perhaps with google or
some classes - either something in person, or maybe just some introductory
videos online that discuss entry level IT topics.

As far as recommended hardware, a raspberry pi may be a quick, inexpensive
way to get started.

Good luck!

Help needed configure a server

2019-08-01 Thread peter agakpe
I am a newbie trying to configure and put a home server online as starter 
project.  with some help. Specifically, dns server specifics, port forwarding, 
recommended hardware and software, such as router, dns server, security, etc. I 
would greatly appreciate any help.

Thanks
Peter
