At the moment I use DynDNS and have a Computer Domain Name but I only use it to check my torrent with WebUI. What else can it be used for?

What Is A Computer Domain Name Used For?
November 19th, 2009I Want To Build A Web Hosting Computer, Any Newbie Suggestions?
October 28th, 2009It’s not my first time building a computer, so I have an idea of the basics. What I want to do is learn a thing or two from those of you that know what the heck they’re doing.
I’m ultimately building it to use as an FTP site for work realted audio storage/transfer – mostly in .wav format. (Yes WAV, an nessesary evil, it retains the quaility for broadcast.)
Then once that’s set up, down the road, to host a few web sites to offset any costs for upkeep. (my brother designs web sites. so I allready know that I’ll get a couple of customers)
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated, thanks!
Whats The Setting On Each Computer On A Network So It Will Allow That Computer To Resolve Domain Names?
October 24th, 2009Domain Name Services. A “computer” is a DNS client. It queries a DNS server to resolve the name (i.e. yahoo.com) into the appropriate IP address.
You can test this from the command line on your computer, ping “yahoo.com”. The reply comes from yahoo’s IP address, not the name.
What Are Ideal Specifications For A Web Hosting Computer?
June 30th, 2009Hi. I’m planning on buying a cheap but decent laptop that I can use to make my own web hosting servers. What are ideal specifications for a computer that I will use for this? Cpu, Memory, all that stuff. I’m probably gonna use linux to host the server.
