The best free tools to run a site from your pc, and they are free with all the best functions you need. They are: - Abyss web server: http://abyss.sourceforge.net/QUOTE What is it?
ABYSS aims to be a fully HTTP/1.1 compliant web server. Its main design goals are speed, low resource usage and portability. ABYSS works on most UNIX based systems and on Win32 systems (Win95/98/2000/NT).
Who wrote it?
ABYSS was written from scratch by Moez Mahfoudh.
Why bother writing another HTTP server?
HTTP servers used nowadays are too complex and/or system dependant. This can be explained by two facts:
They are based on old software (CERN httpd or NCSA httpd) which was written in the beginning of the 90's with no portability or modularity in mind.
They are getting bigger from version to version as they need to support evolution of standards.
Started as a personal challenge, ABYSS project tries to avoid the mistakes found in the design of other servers.
ABYSS characteristics/features are:
Built from scratch
Modular
Customizable: you can build a version which includes only the features you need.
Highly portable: it is written in ANSI C.
Low memory use.
Low system load.
Tiny: on Linux, the executable size is about 35kB.
Fast: On stable developement releases, it is 70% as fast as Apache. When using threads, this rate is 130%. - DSL Web Hosting: QUOTE DSL Web hosting is a free dynamic dns client program which in-
cludes a built-in web hosting , let you run your own web hosting from home on DSL connection with Dynamic IP address, any Internet users could type in your domain and surf on your DSL Web hosting. easy , no banner, quickly and it's free ! New version support PHP,
PERL, EXE and DLL CGI script. This 2 free and very good tools are the best to run websites from your pc's, so, don't pay for a top level domain if you have a computer, because it's to easy to do it yourself! What do you think?

If you've got a montly download limit from your ISP like I have, that sort of thing's not really a viable option.

There's one even better... APACHE ! http://www.apache.org/ CODE The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization incorporated in the United States of America and was formed primarily to:
provide a foundation for open, collaborative software development projects by supplying hardware, communication, and business infrastructure
create an independent legal entity to which companies and individuals can donate resources and be assured that those resources will be used for the public benefit
provide a means for individual volunteers to be sheltered from legal suits directed at the Foundation's projects
protect the 'Apache' brand, as applied to its software products, from being abused by other organizations
That's the dry fact, but how did all this come to be and what does it really mean in its details? We need to step back a little in history. Supports with PHP ! http://www.php.net/ QUOTE PHP is a widely-used general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for Web development and can be embedded into HTML. If you are new to PHP and want to get some idea of how it works, try the introductory tutorial. After that, check out the online manual, and the example archive sites and some of the other resources available in the links section. http://www.mysql.com/ QUOTE Our flagship product is MySQL, the world's most popular open source database, with more than 6 million active installations. Many of the world's largest organizations, including Sabre Holdings, Cox Communications, The Associated Press, NASA and Suzuki, are realizing significant cost savings by using MySQL to power Web sites, business-critical enterprise applications and packaged software. MySQL AB is a second generation, open source company, with dual licensing that supports open source values and methodology in a profitable, sustainable business.

Something you've really got to think about is security. If you're too lazy that you can't patch every single time an exploit has been found, you might aswell give up. Especially if you're hosting it on your own network on the PC you regularly use... Ofcourse, if the server is just for internal testing, you'll be fine, aslong as you only turn it on when you really need it. Shared hosting (standard normal hosting) is probably a better bet for people who want to run a serious small website. Cheaper too, probably. (This website, Trap17 being a prime example - free).

I am just guessing ... are you coming up with a new internet security information site ? ( i.e ETHICAL HACKING ) Well I am paranoid about security and have tried many firewalls and antivirus s/w but except for Zone Alarm i dont think any one is really very effective, specially since its free. Infact i find the paid version having features which are not required and slow down the system. The Free Version is just perfect ... does it's work effectively. Cheers
