Setting Up Server

[tygrus2000]

I want to set up a portion of my PC as a home server and dedicate a small amount of disc space for it. I would like to just host some files locally for some customers who I can just give a password and link to for access but so they can't look around the rest of my system.

How can I set this up and is there a program I need.
thx.

An ftp server might be the easiest. Something like BulletProof FTP Server or Serv-u.

1) Download Free Simple Server

2) Sign up for No IP Free which allows you to create a virtual web address.

3) Install the dynamic update software on your computer so all requests for your web page are redirected to your computer

4) you may have to port forward your broadband modem/router

5) Setup a simple web page and direct Simple Server to load it.

6) Write your basic html. For passwords use simple css script you can get of the net for free.

Alternatively you can use an FTP file server or one of the many free or low cost web servers available, some of which don't require even basic knowledge about html.
