If 'yes answer to the question above,' you may be ready to host your own site. This article will provide those considering a switch inside.

When the original must be technically inclined hosted Web A basic knowledge of the operating system, how to set up the server environment (such as: the DNS, IIS and Apache, etc.) to understand, to understand the technical terms, have a basic knowledge of the script Languages and databases (PHP, Perl is, MySQL, etc.) are familiar with the current technology has a basic understanding of hardware components and server components.

Need to realize your strengths and weaknesses. One thing to say is, if you host your own Web server, is it really that different.

* Unlimited Web sites, databases, content, storage, etc.

* Additional Bandwidth

* No more waiting time for others

* Take complete control

Cons:

* Exhausting at times

* In the face of server / hardware problems

* ISP business account (monthly business / broadband fee)

* If the server is down, Web sites go off-line

* Software, hardware, and network costs

Is, the more advantages and disadvantages, how will I? VE out of Some of the major ones. Started as a full-time job is, Web server you manage, you always need to monitor its performance and security. If this work can be tiring sometimes, especially now Have other responsibilities. However, to use on your website with your control, there are enough challenging its performance. You need to install the script to wait for technical support and no longer accepted Server. Many websites and databases as long as you want, you can you can handle your hardware. You discussion forums no longer have to go and find the best web host or I hate your current host rant about how much. In addition, personal websites, you can start hosting family and friends.

, Ask yourself whether or how technically advanced? Many Your high-tech guru, but do not have time to do anything of the sort, or it may need to very resourceful. How to solve to find the answer to the problem, you need to know quickly and efficiently. Ie If you need the Internet-savvy. In addition, the average surfer who surf the net aimlessly, you may need a surfer can find what they are looking all the time. This is the key for any server environment You encounter a problem, but to find the answer, most search techniques using multiple resources, is achieved from the engine. Sure, you can hire someone to solve your problem However, we are, "web" from the hosting of the need for you to learn about someone is not always the best option. If the test is ready to see to find the solution here. Do I need a solution Is, Microsoft Windows 2003 Server Event Error - "Event ID: 1056?? Be? Temple DHCP How would you like to find a server error? Find a solution before the move.

First came Google's? Then, with great effort, the most common, to start a plus was a good location, usually the developer's best to start a Web site. In this case, "microsoft.com" is in the The first option is that. Why? 09 or more likely that Microsoft will provide an answer from other sources and need to get accurate information from other sources are not available. It From Microsoft, to get the information that does not solve the problem in particular, is common, developers should be your first stop is always to find the answer. Here again find errors Go to the Microsoft site and find a solution.

You must have discovered this link href = "http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid">: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid (Event ID 1056 after you install the DHCP) will be recorded

Did you use a phrase like? That event may have been ID: 1056, The event ID is the exact error, it Pinpoint the exact problem without broadening your search. In some cases, to search for an explanation of the error itself, or event ID by a combination of reasons, this is an explanation of the error. It Depends on your error, your search feedback, your ability and technique. I, in this example does not contain a description of the error.

Google and Yahoo! Two must have been the second option (three two largest search engines). Then, the other to search for a small niche search engines. This is using the Google search site is good? ? Operator appeared tags href = "http://www.soople.com/"> http://www.soople.com/. Second, the forum, you need to find a group discussion. Very familiar with the case, the Internet, or some forum and rich, and then discussion groups have frequently visited these may actually Google and Yahoo to visit the place before! . Even after the addition, it is a trusted source, you can visit them before you visit the site developer, I have not recommended, and I still go to the developer First site. Well, Now we have a good understanding of yourself and your feet are planted and the Internet (search) be familiar with. We are ready to buy a server!

Servers need to buy a few things to consider doing so before midnight. What do you buy? Row, four times on the processors, and ultra-fast turbo server is always ideal but it is logically no more than once Or affordable. Therefore, you need to consider your options (good).

What do you buy?

* First, determine your budget. Be realistic And low-end servers is expected to spend at least 2500 dollars. Little easier than the other necessary equipment and services in 4500 dollars spent and low-end, quality server.

*) Provider, ISP (broadband determine. Best suits your needs and talk with researchers from several vendors, before deciding to broadband. And that each provider has different plans and different Masu Benefit is one of the best, make sure to meet your needs. When you consider the bandwidth, ISP may need to select.

* You must purchase a backup device Before implementing a server install. Backup device, you will need to double the server storage space. This can network storage or backup devices such as external hard drives or stand-alone unit So, not just weeks, you want to be a month or monthly backup: backup tapes, disks or other reason is that multiple devices and backup devices need to increase Backup. At present, without worrying about storage space, you must have at least 24 weeks of backups. Backup device or safe deposits, removable, and there is need for an external, portable. This backup is Can be stored in a remote location. Typically, to maintain safety, theft or natural disaster events.

* Determine your daily traffic goal (1 day traffic This year from realistic ° C) Please refer to the inside, the division is now receiving daily traffic count at five, we hope that a few times. This is the total number of GB capacity that Need.

Example:

The goal of the daily traffic: 10000 (default) the current daily traffic: 500 (Times X) 5 = 100GB partition

~ Buy two or more drives one 100GB hard drive is the best, the cases need to purchase one against. In this case, since, 50GB or find if there is no hard drive, you want to buy two 60GB drives giving If the total of 120GB. Usually consist of two drives one or more servers, a few cases that are appropriate three required one or more RAID options are required. Must be a minimum amount of Bakkuappusutorejisupesu 200 gigabytes (or 240 gigabytes, optional).

* Make sure your memory. The goal of your web server daily traffic of 50 million people I, at least 2GB is recommended that the value of Out of memory. If it is a shared server, and other server services are running on your machine, especially a mail server and database server (which means it is not recommended), and memory must There are at least 3GB or more. Can be considered as an otherwise small, 1GB need to upgrade in the first place should be fine memory stick.

* Network components to determine the best in your high traffic levels under the best execution for the LAN, the router / NIC card to run a Web server. It is best to build a firewall with the router (generally become known ? ? The firewall hardware? ? ). What they are, you can allow traffic on the ISP network may provide a router or hardware firewall, it is. Similarly if the cable box and cable TV. Routers, and other clients on your network shared IP address. This is different from your ISP without having to obtain the IP address, you can share your Internet connection. Hardware Only firewall, router firewall, as well as this, we provide a secure network, built by means of sharing your IP address. This is the front line, the blocks bad addresses and ports Before, you can make it to your computer. It is recommended that you not only dependent on the security of the hardware firewall, this is the first step. In addition, we recommend that you use a software firewall (Firewall software on your computer) to install, update and scheduled routines such, it is recommended to continue timely security practices, such as applying patches to the system.

* To determine the processor speed and power. Regardless, I expect that the amount of traffic over dual-processor is recommended. It is ideal for dual-processor or higher, if your web site If sudden, host performance and other server options or click on a Web server so that the same site, take off that well prepared. This is the time of writing 64-bit platform Direction of the processor. 3.8GHz is the most available speed. In your pocket, but can afford the latest technology that is ideal mind, this particular time to keep 64-bit processor compatible with the degree , Or request, without providing a lot of applications on that platform, not required. Its speed will be faster no more. Also, remember the 64-bit platforms with higher power Must be cooled much more quickly and efficiently. Wants to generate more heated in the speed of the processor. This time, dual 32-bit, 2.8GHz for ° C from a 3.2GHz processor will suffice (even if to do so is More than enough). However, in your pocket and if you can afford the latest and greatest penalty will be well prepared. Otherwise, it's time to upgrade, as most people do not.

* If you are, CD / RW drive please. Is not needed a floppy disk drive, I recommend that you restore the system disk. So, we need some type of removable CD storage / RW drive is required equipment. When I do not know what you need to install a driver from another location? ? Such as Ethernet. External CD / RW drive, especially if the best option, we have multiple machines.

Select your operating system carefully *. Select the vendors that are most comfortable with this. If you are, MAC will be used, MAC please do not choose. Just Since part of the cake and tell your friends suggested that it is not meaningful for you. Cases, Web server again, is trying to learn a whole new system. Concentrated, was grounded. If And Microsoft, Microsoft, regardless of comfort to go with the job of your IT staff are Microsoft products, Linux, unsafe, or Unix and is safer, many Web servers that are better. If you have never used Linux or (especially) Unix for the ride of your life will be when the. Your Web immediately and it becomes a nightmare experience with servers, which wasted thousands of dollars Device. And you know, not what is said to move. There are advantages and disadvantages of each platform: Microsoft, all of them user friendly; Mac for web / graphic developer of them all, Linux for All of them are open-source/developers paradise. Unix is the most secure of them all. Each solid, you can adjust the stick is the best way to provide a quality platform Already know.

All Web services on your system (which is like: Apache, IIS is * and must be installed), applications (eg: backup Device software, RAID (Array) Manager), (such as: PHP, Perl scripting language, etc.) is, CGI, Database (eg: MySQL is, Microsoft SQL, etc.), and Web Analyzer (such log As: nihuo etc.) blogging experts. The system updates, security patches to run, it is recommended to install and configure the firewall. We leave it installed the best security After you have configured and are working to avoid the problems the system is not calculated properly. To stop working properly when connected to such a firewall, you install something From outside your network, your website is a firewall, if so, port 80 on your firewall you can troubleshoot assuming that you start to open. You can save a lot of effort to use this method However, in some cases, especially if the method is unsafe, or be considered Don? There are tons of places that already exist firewall hardware.

The next is to install and configure the server to some to consider before. I put it? Secluded, cool location, ideally you can not be achieved after this adjustment.

Where to place it?

* Place to find, within your home free of static, we are on the carpet, near curtains, or put the server, do nothing Is static can cause a reaction. This is because the internal components of the server does not need to receive a static charge and no shorts.

* Location, cool environment, preferably to room temperature should be less. , For more than desktop computers, servers (among others) there is a reason for creating cool areas as large amounts of heat It will generate more heat needed to cool it. If you keep your cool is not the server then this server is hung, then you may eventually crash. That is, when the same results, the car overheated, It stops running. Internal components of your server, and to keep the room cool, and add cool to use that you can maintain you can add a lot of fans to cool the server internal components of the server can The rear panel of the server, the location of the internal components cool when there are always fans of the server is a standalone fan directly. And depending on how cool a room, how much production servers, heat Many fans need to get your server is not an option.

* This is a higher level in your home server (intermediate level) are proposed If you are in the basement flood occurs it could ruin. If you are in the attic, like the sun time, the beam in the attic for the server to overheat. Mid-floor level is usually a cool place Home, and within these recommendations is optional, the rest of the guidelines in the most comfortable and convenient space, you need to deploy more servers.

* Ensure that no moisture, or wet area of your choice (any liquid near the leakage, moisture, or near the window? Particularly open?). We know that happens when you get to do the electrical components Wet.

* The server will sit at least 4 or? Inches from the ground

* Please check the electrical outlet is near the outlet. This power, it is important that there is a good brand is APC. With power outages, loss of power, and you can save, low voltage. Can have the power Maintain the stability of the server to maintain its power, is stopped when there is impact, as well as to prevent electric shock, protecting the server. We recommend that your stop over five minutes left Down voluntarily and not just important to start a backup of anything, other electrical devices connected, and decided to shut down the computer.

* Wireless LAN lines are close to the standard phone jack (using the server for any dial-up) plans. This is a dial-up connection using the Web is not recommended that you use the service. Broadband connection or greater It is recommended for optimal performance. Wireless LAN line should come from the wall plug directly into your server, to a hardware firewall (usually a firewall you need to plug the router) is embedded.

* The size of components inside the server, depending on the server, be loud and very loud, especially the fans going. It is The proposed house, secluded location and is not near any peaceful area: the bedroom is the server.

Before you consider a few basic things for all these Hosting their own servers. Sabahosutingu own easy, but to experience it some time and once it becomes very easy.
