here is my website- www.34u.org
Jointly owned with another guy. we both coded it. Check it out!!

andymt · 31-08-2005, 08:39

also, stuart,

isused your ideas, but modified them slightly-
used my own domain ( www.peepsnet.net and www.andymt.co.uk )
edited the DNS Zone to point to my static ip
Downloaded Apache software for windows, its the best as it can run php
built a website! Take a look. (it might not be online very much, but i will leave it on this morning for a while!

I have a few downloads, but will be faster with the upcoming telewest upgrades (then i will have 384kbps upload speed)

antium · 21-09-2005, 04:45

Do Telewest allow this with their standard broadband package? As i've heard that some ISPs frown on you hosting your own server.

I can't find any info about it on their website.

Thank you in advance

im suprised that noones ever mentioned using rebol for a bit of fun
web hosting, bbs system, blogger, many other things and its totally
small and portable across OS's too.

its a shame that ntlworld dont allow cgi scripts
as i'd love to put rebol and the bbs/blogger scripts
directly on the serverside webspace we get.

get both rebol/view and rebol/core for your OS
http://www.rebol.com/download.html

go here http://www.tgd-consulting.de/Download.html and get
Serve-It!

here for the bbs (click the download script at the top
http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap...bbs.r#reb-over

and here for the blogger http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap...ipt=new-blog.r

heres several rebol scripts including the original Wiki/Weblog app
vanilla http://www.rebol.net/solutions.html
and many more advanced scripts/apps.

http://www.rebol.net/cgi-bin/blog.r?index=0
http://www.rebol.net/cgi-bin/rbbs.r
http://www.rebol.com/docs/cgi-bbs.html

the serve-it is dead easy to setup within 2 mins
and just copy it to any dir and run.

it struggles a bit with serving some avi's to VLC
mostly H264/AVC/mpeg4part10 but still a cool
few minutes playing around.

if you want to play a little more with the vast
possibilitys of both the core and the GUI view rebol
try out this Rebol Programming For The Absolute Beginner
http://musiclessonz.com/rebol_tutorial.html
for some instant WOW thats good stuff....................

Sorry if this has already been mentioned but when I had slightly decent upload I used to run "Wamp" webserver with MYSQL and PHP with it, Was VERY VERY relieable even on a P3 500Mhz machine.

I don't use any servers now as on a crappy upload

moogles · 28-07-2006, 20:23

Another one you could use is EasyPHP its Apache/mySQL

AbyssUnderground · 07-08-2006, 10:50

I run the website www.abyssunderground.co.uk, its the official help website for Abyss Web Server for those who want to use it. Ive been around these forums for a while and only just noticed this thread.

Good luck to all those who decide to use it. You can get professional help on setting it up on www.aprelium.com/forum if you dont get the answers you need here.

Flobajob · 07-08-2006, 10:56

EasyPHP is good, but WAMP is far better, so easy to configure.

Graham M · 07-08-2006, 11:16

Yeh Wamp is pretty good for testing stuff before it goes online, but nothing can beat a Linux test server for testing sites to be uploaded to a Linux server for problems that can crop up because of the differences how PHP reacts between to 2 OS's

kitster · 12-08-2006, 14:59

michael_swan · 18-08-2006, 11:29

Best person to ask is your mate. Its his server.

Another one for the WAMP list here

check the readme - tells you which files need CHMOD'ing

that was my problem, the server may be running linux which needs chmod'ing windows doesnt.

Wamp5 = quick, painless, easy, and no need for "4 or 5" machines like stated before... Mine runs wamp5- ability mail server (soon to be kerio6), my "intranet" - sql, php, all the perl scripts etc. AND runs Folding@Home @ 40% cpu usage - along with BulletProof FTP running- and normally Newsleecher & QuickPar- far from being a dedicated server - but it does the job, used mainly for mp3/video/flash movie streaming over network. along with NOD32 running in background

does more but i cba to type

On an Amd Skt A 2400+,
Win server 2003,
768mb ram
not enough storage

IIS is useful - but not as easy to use as apache (apache being wamp5- not installing it yourself) :P
