Ask YC: Has anyone run a website on a home server?
I'm wondering if any hackers here have hosted their own website on their own dedicated server? How was it configured (Linux or Windows server; 4GHz or 8GHz, 1GB ram, etc.)? Did anything disasterous happen, like a /.ing?
I've been interested for a while, as a 'just for fun' project, and I'd like to hear how difficult it is to do. Is it actually a possibility if you run a low/medium traffic website?
