Dear all


What actions do I have to take to setup a Linux webserver on the internet.

Can I use my current ISP and ISDN line or do I have to have a leased line?

What are the minimum steps I have to take!

Thanks
Hans

You need a dedicated Internet connection such as a cable modem or DSL
service.  Simple dial-up service is not sufficient if you want your web server
availablw 24/7.  Some ISPs providing cable or DSL service will not allow such
a configuration so you should investigate.  Then install Apache web server on
your Linux box and make a few configuration settings make your web server
available to the world.  Remeber, your web server MUST have a valid IP address
as provided by your ISP, not in the private range of 10.x.x.x or 192.x.x.x.
Good luck!
