Would it be possible to create a miniature www for my friends and neighbours. This little network would operate on the local phone lines of one telephone exchange. So no long distance. I would like this little network to be able to serve websites. This little www would NOT be connected to the big WWW. Would I have to set myself up as an ISP? If so, what kind of software would I need? If I need special ISP software, would that software be available as OpenSource freeware? I know how to host and serve websites with my Apache. I run Mandrake 9 |

You coudl set it up completely with a normal Linux install with minimial configuration for the dial in server. The downside is that I am pretty sure you will need a phonline / modem for each simultaneous connection... But it can definately be done... first things first I would start looking at the PPP howto for instructions on setting up a dial in server. Good luck and let us know how it goes. |
