Heh, I just began to host people!

Here:
http://melonman.d2g.com/hosting.html

When you sign-up you recieve the following:
-50MB of Webspace
-FTP Access
-PHP
-MySQL
-Perl (Permission Changing Not Yet Possible)
-Fast DSL Server (My Computer! :biggrin2: )

Just sign-up at that link and you'l get a confirmation e-mail when your account has been finished processing!

Post your questions here! :D

Seeing that you probably are using a DSL connection by BellSouth, you won't last very long since BellSouth doesnt allow Servers.

That's easy. Once they find out, they will contact you and give you a warning. If you don't remove it, they will cancel your DSL account. Unless you get a jerk for a tech, they may just disconnect your DSL service w/o prior notice and make you pay the $200 dollar cancellation fee.

Just give it up, you're running a host on apparently normal ADSL which means:

1. Your host is going to suck.
2. Your bandwidth sucks even more.
3. Like most ADSL companies, you get one warning, then your arse gets kicked out.
4. It's DEFINITELY not worth the risk.
5. You're trying to cobrand their bandwidth, which is probably not allowed. :rolleyes:

BTW, server just means a computer that serves one of two things, a connection, or files. Yours would be the second.
