Well...thats going to suck for people who want to visit your site when you are offline :)

You'll need web server software like Apache, and if you want PHP, you'll need MySql and some other software too. Also, being on a 56k will mean your bandwidth will be sucked up by anyone visiting your site, so your online speeds will suffer too.

You would need webserver software like Apache and possibly a DNS daemon if you want a domain name.

ah.. that sucks... i cant even get broadband out here either... humm, well its worth having a go at

Apache can be seen as better because its open source (someone correct me if im wrong), but IIS can be good too if its secured properly, i installed IIS on my win2k server yesterday after previously having apache.

I found that PHP was easier to set up on IIS than Apache, but i think theres bundles you can download that have apache, mysql and php all put together, but im unsure if im making this up and turning insane, *think* ive seen that before.

Here is where I am at....I have IIS installed. Localhost works. But when I type in my ip, still nothing. I think it is because of my router, is there any ports that need to be fowarded?

Only port 80 i thought, could be wrong though.

If you use frontpage I'll slap you. :D If you can, use another WYSIWYG editor like Dreamweaver. From experience, frontpage produces too much non-standard code which makes it more difficult to do a switch from IIS to Apache.

For information about setting up Apache + PHP + mySQL in Linux, Go Here. I think apache has a modules that will support coldfusion. I've never used code fusion before so I could be wrong.

well, not ANYONE connected to the internet can run a webserver.

you have to be able to have incoming connections on port 80 (by default). if your server is set up on port 80 they can just type your ip (like http://1.1.1.1)

you COULD run it on a different port if port 80 is blocked (as some cable co's do)..for example, port 8080 would be http://1.1.1.1:8080

and if you want a really simple webserver so you don't have to deal with apache/IIS...if you just want to host files that don't require php or mysql or any of that, try analogx simpleserver:www http://www.analogx.com/contents/download/n...twork/sswww.htm

    • Forza Motorsport gets IndyCar, Career mode improvements, and more by Taras Buria Turn 10 Studios announced the next Forza Motorsport update, which includes new content and various game improvements. Update 21 follows the previous Anniversary Update and adds IndyCar, a free expansion for Career mode, Featured Tours, new reward cars, and more. IndyCar is back in the game, allowing you to get behind the wheel of the latest-generation open-wheel racing cars. New vehicles include the 2025 Chevrolet IndyCar and the 2025 Honda IndyCar. There is also the all-new IndyCar Series in Featured Multiplayer. Career mode now has the Champions Cup, a new home for racecar-focused tours in single-player racing. There, you can drive a variety of modern and classic racecars from one-make series to endurance legends. Completing the Champions Cup will give you various high-reward cars like the 1979 BMW #6 BMW Motorsport M1 Procar, the 1998 Nissan #23 Pennzoil NISMO Skyline GT-R, the 2014 Dodge #93 SRT Motorsports Viper GTS-R, and more. Developers also adjusted the in-game pricing for most racecars to make the Champions Cup more accessible. Another change in Update 21 is the return of previous Featured Tours. The game will feature an additional Tour every month, allowing you to earn some of the previous reward cars and participate in the now-ended events. Here is a brief overview of other changes and improvements: Featured Multiplayer has been reorganized, incorporating player feedback, with the goal of providing players with even more event variety. Click here for a rundown of these changes. We’ve implemented BoP Spec changes to the Forza GT2, Forza GT3, Forza Touring Car, and Forza Proto-H divisions with help from participants in the Forza Insiders Program. See the release notes for an overview of the adjustments that have been made. The Challenge Hub menu has been reorganized to more effectively communicate where rewards can be earned as well as the type of rewards available to unlock. We’ve fixed an issue for players using the Fanatec DD2 racing wheel that would assign the peripheral an incorrect mapping profile. All Builders Cup Tours are now immediately unlocked, which means you no longer need to complete the Modern Tour to access the 3 other Builders Cup Tours. In addition, select Builders Cup Series have been updated to feature additional eligible cars and post-launch tracks. A detailed overview of these changes has been included in the release notes. There are also numerous fixes to AI behavior and competitiveness in single-player racing. You can read more about Forza Motorsport Update 21 in a post on the official Forza website.
    • If it ever gets to a reasonable level of parity, I think more real competition in the Windows space would be a good thing. What I like about this is that it's not just another reskinned Linux distro (with all of those inherent problems). It's meant to literally boot and work like Windows NT+. That could be an interesting development one day -- note that this has been in development since 1996, btw.
    • I simply don't get why this "OS" exists. Who cares? Great, you can now run a Windows 95-era stupid game, super cool...
