To my knowledge a cable modem has nothing to do with DSL, but if you have a cable connection like I do, your provider probably doesn't allow you to run a server without some fancy expensive package, and if you got the fancy expensive package they'd probably tell you how to do it (just guessing on that one). I got a letter from Time Warner about how we aren't allowed to have servers. Several people have mentioned if you're not planning on it having any real traffic, they'll never notice, but what can I say... I'm a rule-follower.

How can I run a DNS server on my Linux machine that will replicate itself from the DNS of my ISP and be contactable by other DNS servers? In other words, how can I directly host websites on my machines which will be contactable from outside? > > Regards > > > _______________________________________________ > Twin Cities Linux Users Group Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota > http://www.mn-linux.org > tclug-list at mn-linux.org > https://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list >
