I pay:
Dedicated phone line: $25/mo
ISP charges: $20/mo
Static IP/DNS: $20/yr.
So, I pay about $50/mo, and I am connected 24x7. But of course this
doesn't include the cost of the computer. Mine is a 486/66 w/128MB RAM
(which you can pick up for about $100 used if you shop around), running
Slackware Linux, which you can d/l free. This config with a 33k dialup
is more that sufficient to run Majordomo, a web server, Mhonarc, etc.
Since we're on the topic...anyone here running mailing lists off of a Mac?
I have a book telling me how but I need to do the web server and etc as
cheaply as possible. My second machine (server) is a Quadra 700. My
primary machine is a PPC. I have DSL with a static IP and soon the Quadra
will be networked to it.
My own lists I'll probably keep at best.com but I have some clients who
want some small lists for their patients/customers/visitors. Assuming I'm
providing DNS, being able to have the list name use their domain name is a
plus.
Thanks,
Cyndi
