Setting up webserver?

I have a Pentium 3 computer that is sitting idle and I thought of turning it into a webserver. How would I go about doing this? Search engines don't turn me out any good info.

What OS are you running?

It is possible to run a domain off your PC. Check out http://www.no-ip.com/

The OS on the pentium 3 I will use is Windows 98. I may download Linux though.
Thanks for that link.

When running a server on your computer, is the space limit the space on your hard drive? and what about bandwidth?

use linux... win 98 is not very secure for running a server service

Yeah, I was thinking about doing that. How do I calculate the bandwidth I have?

The space limit is limited to hard drive space.

I would recommend Red Hat Linux 7.3

Is there any risk of screwing up my cable modem?

I've been running my boards through my cable connection since 10/25/02 without too many problems.

All times are GMT. The time now is 07:59 PM.
