<br />
I have been a developer for a long time, but am fairly new to the admin role. I have a machine at home that I need to use to host some nonprofit sites on (anyone else have friends that bug you about all things computer because they think you are a geek?!?!?! ;)
<br />
<br />
Basic setup is a DSL line, cisco 678, and a small home lan (5 boxen) behind the router.
<br />
<br />
I have been trying to weed through several O'Reilly's (BIND, firewalls, etc.), but I also have a 60+ hr/week programming job that I need to fit into my schedule. Already have sites registered, etc etc. But people are bugging me about getting them online. (One of the sites is for a historic 'art' moviehouse in my hometown. They used to show weird stuff like art films, and they really need a site to help with information and stuff - they hardly keep the place open as it is.)
<br />
<br />
So what I'm looking for is someone that is familiar with general small server setup that could help to end my constant frustrations with named, iptables, and fun stuff like that. I don't need anything elaborate, just some basic solid setup help with several tools.
<br />
<br />
I can provide ssh access to the box, or if you are close to Minneapolis, I live near Augsburg college (west bank area close to the U). Anytime is fine, evenings and weekends would be super.
<br />
<br />
I know all linux hounds are into machines for the fun of it, but I know that I am asking for some help that will take a few hours, so I'm willing to compensate whoever might be able to help me (cash or hardware or whatever, but I'm not Bill Gates).
<br />
<br />
I only get the digest, so if you might be interested, so please drop me an email at bfriedman@excite.com if you might be interested.
<br />
<br />
Thanks,
<br />
