[QUOTE="iRock, post: 446364, member: 9277"] Did you run this on the machine that you worked on everyday? I've been thinking about doing it... for my Blog. As far as a static IP address goes, isn't been always on almost as good as a static IP address? To the best of my knowledge this wouldn't be very complicated, Mac OS X even has Apache with it - You just have to enable it. You could use something like dynDNS: [url]http://www.dyndns.com/support/clients/mac.html[/url] This would take care of the DNS problem. After this, well you'd have to get configure your Firewall so that Apache can serve on Port 80. Better still you can have it on 8080. As for security - well I am still unsure how this would go on Mac. I know more about Windows as I work as a Junior Network Administrator working along side engineers everyday. Its like having your own personal instructor - anything you want to know they can tell you. However, Mac isn't so popular here in Ireland so they wouldn't be so familiar with it. [/QUOTE]
