Re: What kind of server would you recommend? @SLJ no problem; feel free to mail me if you need (it's right there on all my posts).By learning from the bottom up, I mean you should start with the mechanics and principles and go upward, instead of trying to digest everything necessar

Re: What kind of server would you recommend? Thanks a lot. I have read a lot of tutorials and tried to learn from those. So I'm not sure on what you mean by learning it from the bottom. I've tried to do that.   I might send you a mail if I run into trouble.

Re: What kind of server would you recommend?

Re: What kind of server would you recommend? Awesome, thank you. It feels kind of retro, just like the old DOS days, but with a much more advanced system... Is there a simple Linux console I can install on a virtual machine which includes a screenreader to learn the basics? Can I just

Re: What kind of server would you recommend?

Re: What kind of server would you recommend? Yes. That would download just the file. But (at the risk of putting a damper on things) it's a teensy bit more complicated than that ... the shell characters that might be in URLs need to be escaped. The best way is to use single quote

Re: What kind of server would you recommend?

Re: What kind of server would you recommend? If you just want to get started, you might want to go for debian. It's a system where everything is basically setup for you. for example, getting a website online is as simple as typing apt-get install apache2 in the terminal, and it
