Recently I bought a static IP from an ISP and trying to setup so that I can enable my home PC as a web server and can be accessible thru internet.
I wanted to setup with Apache Server. I have windows vista OS installed. Please point me where I can find some documentation on web server setup and configuring static IP address, firewall setup, etc.,
Web hosting from home,
View 10 Replies View RelatedI already have a web server hosting around 70 web sites with FastHosts who charge me around £350 per month. I am a one man band and looking to cut monthly costs. On my web server with FastHosts, I have around 6 IP addresses all used for specific purposes such as SSL and public web sites and all works just fine.
I have just purchased a fast 8mb BT Network Business broadband connection at home along with 13 static IP addresses and built an office on my land that is secure. I want to host my own servers here on the premises that gives my clients the same services they currently get but without me having to pay £350 per month.
BT now tell me that the router they provided cannot route more than 1 IP address to the same machine. The router can only route 1 IP address to 1 PC. This means to achive what I already have would mean purchasing several servers and hosting clients web sites on an individual server.
I have a Windows 2003 server that I know can host all the sites I need including secure and public from one machine. I also know that each secure web site requires it's own IP address and I have those from BT.
Have you any ideas if there are any routers out there that work on broadband connections that can forward more than 1 IP address to the same computer and still work just fine with the BT set-up that I have?
I wanted to host a website from home and
- registered domain with godaddy.com
- created account with everydns.net and updated the nameserver information at godaddy
- My webserver is Apache Http server and I have a router between my system and ISP's modem, so i did the port forwarding and also opened the port to public. I have also used a port other than 80 because I thought my ISP might block port 80.
My problem is i can access my webpages from my home machine(server) but not from my office machine. one interesting note is my ISP is COX and i have asked my friend who also has COX to check the site and He was able to access my website.
I checked checkdnsDOTnet and nothing seem to be a problem and i have also checked the port at canyouseemeDOTorg and the port seems to be open.
I used DOT to indicate '.' , because I am not allowed to link URLs
I've been toying with the idea of hosting from home to reduce overhead. To give you a rundown I have a pretty popular site that hosts videos and a very very large forum. The company I rent my server from now I'm starting to think is sort of a ripoff.
Current Specs
2x 2.0 dual core xeon (woodcrest)
4gb ram
6x500gb drives
8/mbps (suppose to be 10)
3000gb bandwidth
All of this comes to $917 a month.
The thing is I'm a Systems Engineer for my 9-5 anyway, so there's nothing in the hardware/OS configuration that would send me on a loop. I get especially skiddish since all of this data which is my livelyhood I don't even have physical access to, even if I wanted to do something simple like backup the video uploads directory to an external drive or something of the sort just for peace of mind.
I'm guessing my only option would be a 10mbps plan through Time Warner's business class (which I have no idea what that runs yet) then just purchase the server and UPS and just chuck it up in the office.
The best way to start today is with a small biz website hosted under linux at home. I believe this is the solution... if your website grows generating profits you can buy more computers or servers this will pay the expenses itself... No hiden fees, no monthly fees (except a few more dollars for electricity). I host in ubuntu server edition with gnome-desktop surfing, working & hosting at the same.

i want to optimize the mysql to get better performance,
how can i check it my setting is ok and how can i do?
i have two servers behind certain switch,
the two servers are with low load,
but the one is good response,and another one is slow,
i try to restart the httpd,the problem is here still,

I have purchased "Due2Core" with 4GB Ram. i have one problem. i hope someone help me in this matter.
I have hosted only 4 or 5 websites on dedicated. mostly maximum 8000 users visit my website. Maximum B/W usage is 35GB.
Daily 25 or 30 mints my websites "WebPages open speed slow". Some time problem occur for 1 time or 2 times. when i checked my server status report Load only 0.50% and Memory usage 35% only.

some friend suggest me for optimize your dedicated apache. because some thing wrong in your apache.
because i have enough memory.
Anybody suggest me suitable apache Optimization method. with step by step.
Remember, in this time my server run default sitting.
Saw a few mention of optimizing mysql. Sounds like it will help with performance. What exactly is this and will my web host do this for us?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently got my first dedicated server and now have it all up and running. I would like to optimize mySQL for improved performance.
Server running: CentOS 5, Tomcat, mySQL 5
Most queries: Single line queries (SELECT * FROM table WHERE name='John')

to optimize mysql for my server. What would the cost be?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI've been a long time follower of wht.com from reading the hosting reviews to optimizations, and now it's come to that point that I need to post a question to get more accurate help than reading others configurations since all servers and sites have their needs. So here it goes.
Server specs:
Ubuntu dapper
Apache 2.2.4
PHP 5.2.3 - eaccelerator 0.9.5.1
mysql 5.0.22
2.6.15-28-server #1 SMP i686 GNU/Linux
cpu: Intel Xeon-Clovertown 5320-QuadCore 1.86GHz
ram: 2x2GB
As I wrote in the topic my main concern is my apache config. I've tried many many different configs but I'm never sure when to stop optimizing it.
The site is a chat community (myspace like site) with over 1000-2000 simultaneous users online that do everything from posting images, to talk in the forums. And yes I host everything on the same server atm.
My worry is that at night when the site has the most visitors the amount of processes that get produced get 'cut' as it seems to reach a limit somewhere. Below is an image of cacti with load and processes. Please ignore the load peaks as they are nothing then my average 'testing' periods of new functions
[url]
This seems to be run by my Max/MinSpareServers which I've played around with but as I said never could find a perfect spot. The amount of processes have always been controled by these values, before I increased them a couple of days ago the amount was around 600 processes to the max. Now as you can see on the latest graph it's around 800.
I've tried the default values but the site went to slow with those values. I've lately come up to what I think is insane values but it keeps the server ticking in a nice pace.
So I'm asking you guys for help as I've reached my trial and error sessions. I have no clue what 'ok' values are for amount of current processes running, and I don't' feel confident to increase the values.
here is my apache config.
Timeout 60
KeepAlive On
MaxKeepAliveRequests 3500
KeepAliveTimeout 2
StartServers 190
MinSpareServers 170
MaxSpareServers 230
ServerLimit 700
MaxClients 700
MaxRequestsPerChild 6000
My server: Opteron 165 + 2GB RAM, running CentOS
I have noticed that if I enable KeepAlive, the performance is much more better. However, Apache will be frozen few times a day without any reason. So, I need to turn off KeepAlive. Is there any idea why and how to fix? This is the configuration
Timeout 300
KeepAlive On
MaxKeepAliveRequests 10
KeepAliveTimeout 2
MinSpareServers 10
MaxSpareServers 25
StartServers 15
MaxClients 250
MaxRequestsPerChild 10
I bought a new server to run proxy websites on it.
how to optimize my apache.
There are some great tools to optimize MySQL, however I have not been able to find the equivalent for Apache + PHP. I have a lot of experience tweaking these two in extreme traffic environments, but there is no beating a program that can simultaneously evaluate several inputs over time to calculate optimal settings.

So I've recently ordered a Supermicro 4U server with 24x1TB HDs, 64GB RAM and put it in RAID 10. I'm running Debian 5.0 and have installed lighttpd. All the content I serve are video files (AVi, MP4, MKV, OGM) and each file is about 100-500mb in size. I'm wondering how can I optimize lighttpd to get the best performance out of it. I look forward to your replies.

Can someone tell my what to put in it, or give me some tips on how to optimize MySQL
This is what I have in /etc/my.cnf right now:
Code:
[mysqld]
skip-bdb

how exactly it helps?
mysqlcheck -o -u...
Like what it does to "optimize" them? Does it really help?
