I have a static connection (DSL) and a spare computer any ideas what I can do to set up my on site? mostly need some place to park large files.
Do you have a domain name?
If not, head over to dyn-dns and get yourself a static IP domain from them.. (its free)
Then copy your large files to /var/www/html and start apache..: service httpd start
You should be good to go.
all the config files for apache are in /etc/httpd/conf and they are all pretty well commented.
If you don't feel up to facing manual config files, then fireup webmin and configure apache that way.
you shouldn't need to do much if anything, mandrake has apache ready to go out of the box.
