Does any body know if I can host a web site from my home computer.
Cox is my ISP
It is all redy to go I just need for it to be accessable from the net
I have two routers running and the one the is hooked up to the net and that my computer is hooked to is setup to allow incomming HTTP on port 80 travel to my computer on port 8080
I have my server setup correctly I am using Abyss webserver
And i dunno what else to do
No firewalls running

You can donate $10 to Ambush! and we will be happy to provide the answers you are looking for.

You will either have to purchase space on the 'Net ( I can help you there ),buy a commercial account for your home, or work around Cox.

They are blocking traffic to port 80 by default so you can't host on the standard port. You will have to use another non-standardport like 8080. But then it's not going to be found by default with a browser since they connect to port 80 by default.

Next is to upgrade your account to a commercial account. Same bandwidth, better support and a static IP.

Or purchase webspace on the 'Net. I can help you there. email me on the side and we can talk about that.

You can Also have 50 Megs split between 5 emails and use the Cox.net to host...

I love when people talk about that which they don't understand totally! :lol

God Bless you nic!

here's the scoop. We are hosted by a reseller by the name of Interactive Graphics Media. They are a small outfit, with a horrid site. But a great bunch of guys. I know them all personaly and they are just the best.

Anyway, they are looking at changing vendors right now, so that they can provide better services. But in the meantime they are still selling space. You can email them here. Tell them I sent you!
