Time<%@ Page Language="C#" %><%= Request.Browser.Browser %> Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 Happy new year all,Anyway, this is once again for the geekier amongst us..I would like a domain name that I can then have forwarded (DNS forwarding) to my server (going to ask my ISP for a static IP), upon which I will install apache and some kind of mail server (on a Red-Hat 9 install) so I can serve my own web-site and have as many e-mail acounts as I like.So, does anyone know a domain registrar where I can achive such a feit without having to buy their "wonderfull all in one hosting solutions" as well? And am I being mad in thinking that hosting my own email and web-sites is easier than it sounds, or do I need to buy the "pop forwarding" type thing as well as a domain?Thanks,Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazan Posted January 4, 2004 Share Posted January 4, 2004 Given that you can get 60Gb of reliable webhosting for just 15 per year I can't see the point of running a server oneself with all the risks it entails. I suppose that you are hoping to use an ADSL connection for this? For starters domestic ADSL isn't very reliable and the cost for a fixed IP address may be high.However, if you want to do this then most registrars will suit. Joker and Gandi certainly will. Or try Tera-byte who have an associated redirection service at Redirection.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
