    Will Charter Care If I Run A Web Server?

    Just got Charter internet. I want to put Linux on an old 32 bit computer and run Apache off of it. I want to use something like FreeDNS to turn my dynamic IP to a static IP.

    Do you think Charter would care?

    Based on current stats.
    I expect 1 to 3 hits a day for my main site, Depending on how much I post on GFY.
    And about 3,000 hits a day on /wp-admin/wp-login.php. Which won't exist, Cause it won't be a wordpress site.

      I have run servers from my basement off and on for the past 15 years. I have been on Ma Bell, Roadrunner and Comcast and none of them have given one fuck.

              Run the webserver on a port above 5000 -- don't send much commercial traffic or you will have problems.

              Also, you may need to configure your router(s) and firewall(s) to allow the TCP traffic into the port that is disguised as a gaming port. The other big problem is as your IP is not static? you will have to reset DNS for the domain name (hostname) of the server -- that is a real pain in the ass sometimes.

              Ok as a development server but as a webhost $10 or $20/mo will get you a VPS server in a datacenter.

              **Years ago I had a friend that tried this with Charter and had a real problem.

              For a few hits a day why bother?

                          True. I am already using shared hosting right now. What I want to do, is play with Django without screwing up anything. I see where Hostgator and Dreamhost allow Django to be setup. But I am worried I will screw something up on a shared server.

                              localhost will let you develop on an apache2 on a LINUX box. 0 cost other than some electricity.

                              https://www.ovh.com/us/vps/vps-ssd.xml 3.49/mo for a small VPS server -- you have root and SSH like a developer would.

                                  Thanks on the OVH. Yea. I have one Mutillidae running on an old netbook now. It is a website full of bugs that you can practice on.
