Okay... What I'm doing is kind of weird... Here's the deal... I currently host 16 low bandwidth websites for local companies. Real basic sites. What I would like to do instead of colocation/dedicated servers is setup my own stuff. I'm in an area where I can get decent connections at fair rates. Around $350 a T1 unmanaged and $700 managed. Anyhow, I've built myself a pretty basic server. AMD 64 x2 4800+, 2GB Ram, SATA Drives ect.... It should run these sites fine, well I hope anyhow  But I don't know much about setting this stuff up... Basically I know most of it just not the DNS part of it.... What I want to do before I go and sign a contract with the ISP for my line I want to try and play around with this stuff to learn it... I'm running Windows 2003 Server w/ Plesk (30 Domain licenses) I want to try this out using my current connection ( 6Mbit/1.5Mbit ) cable. Its dynamic but I've had the same IP address for the last 2 years. I have a domain I want to use at www.sitelutions.com. Basically I need to know how to make my domain work with this box...
Catch is. Port 80 is blocked....
I have a few ideas of my own on what to try but I have to wait untillmy domain resolves to my machine... at sitelutions I added an A record to point to my machine... (boxname.domain.com)
Well could use the help... Thanks! |
