How to set up a personal home web server

[Heroin]

Might i add that you guys are talking about ISP which are only based in America as a European this is very akward as it has nothing to do with me... Also american ISPs seem to be d***s :P here in the Netherlands everyone gets a dynamic IP adress and they can do whatever they want with their internet

Also stating that Fedore / CentOS are the best for a server is very very personal. Debian Sarge or RedHat are also strong canidats, and thats still excluding other distro's. Its just what you prefer. Now for a good howto site i found this one:

http://www.howtoforge.com/

It has server tutorials for a large amount of linux based distro's

Red Hat isn't FREE however. I don't know about Debian Sarge. As for the others, most don't compete in the server market yet. Fedora/CentOS are very strong in the server market.

That's where most of our experience lies, unfortunately. I wish it were different. Liz

Nice links. I have never seen diywebserver.com before. After all my searching I thought everything. After a quick glance through the forums, I found soulwatcher's thread about getting this site started. Really good read.
