Create own web server?


Hi
I want to create a web server to store my proxy server and link it to my .co.cc domain.

I have an old Dell computer which I could use, it's not powerful but I will be the only one using this website.

Here is how my network is setup in my house. The internet goes into my dad's router in his office. The office router is connected to my router and the dell computer is connected to this.

How would I turn this Dell computer into a webserver which could host the site?

Any help would be great
Thanks

Re: Create own web server?


Hi

Its not suggested to run a proxy on your home connection - if someone uses it for fraudulent activity then YOU will be liable for it.

However if you run the proxy on a server connection then its a different story.

However if you still want to run the proxy on your home connection -

Install Lampp/xampp onto your dell.
Check out dynamic DNS ( google it )
Forward port 80 on your router.

Please, do consider the consequences of running a proxy on your home connection.

- Fraudulent activity can be used on your home connection
- Slow, Unreliable home connection.
- ISP's do not allow servers in MOST residential areas.
- Opening your network up to more vulnerabilities and/or attacks.
