I want to setup a server on my harddrive, with PHP and MySQL so that i can setup vb on my hardrive for testing purposes.
I have vb on the net over at www.mobile-forum.co.uk but i want something to test install hacks on etc. can someone please help me? I have an AMD Duron 800, 192mb RAM, 10.2gb HDD and all the time in the world. I am not wanting to host my own forums of my own computer having a 56k dial-up connection... Thanks in advanced |

looks good thanks
i have my 60gb hdd coming, do you think i should create a 512mb partition or something to put all this on, so it doenst clog up my C drive which has windows xp on it? |
Yes, thats always good :up:
|
How secure would my system be with all this on?
Can anyone just goto http://mycurrentip:80 and access the server? |
Yup, but you can stop that. I use IIS and Chris S. showed a neat way to block everyone who tried to access my server (only I can using http://localhost/). :)
|
Which is better then? Apache or IIS ?
IIS comes with WindowsXP and I bet there are loads of patches for it no? PS, there are two Chris S' on this site, which one is it please so I may contact him :D |
I used to use Apache before my last format, but I decided to give IIS a try and personally I like it better... my system starts up and shuts down a lot faster now. :)
|
thanks but, which chris s are you on about :D
thanks for your help! |
