I want to develope a FTP transfer server (for the same functions that your
original BBS @ lonestar); primarily allowing customers to log on & download
deposit files at their convenince.
I've downloaded "FTP Serv-U" FTP-Server Daemon for WinSock Version 2.2
which comes highly recomended (based on articles in magazines).  I'd like
to do some initial research at home.  My problem is I need a constant IP
address & I'm not sure how to use this software in conjunction with a Web
page or internet service perovider or if that's practical or even possible.
 If you have any useful advice that could save me some long hours hacking
up the wrong tree, I'd appreciate any advice I can get.
