Re: [Staffslug] Self server hosting
uh.. i've done it on my own home network before sure.. back in the
days when i was running 56k unlimited.. but that's another story..
depends on whether you plan on hosting images/music and streaming.. if
in doubt, buy a root server but _FOR GOD'S SAKE_ buy it from somewhere
in america.. and get yourself some decent bandwidth!! uk companies -
love the fact they're trying as i might, they're tight and don't give
you anything for free.. fdcservers is a great example of people who
will give you a shedload of bandwidth (1000gb i think i have) on a
10mbit pipe (minimum, regardless of what their sales info says) try
guzzling that down and you'll forever have a smile on your face, as
opposed to suffering something like a 100gb limit for the month..on a
badly contended line which most companies (like one&one unfortunately)
sell in the uk..q
