I am a noob in the area of servers and web hosting. I am currently running Fedora 9 on my secondary laptop and wish to make it into a server machine.
I pretty much want to run:
1. Support AJAX/Dreamweaver for Web page design
2. Mailman mailing system or similar, to create mailing lists
3. Wikimedia support with encrypted access (personal registered password)
4. Blogs with encrypted and public interaction
5. Big space for audiovisual archive and broadcast
I will be getting a second laptop to run as a storage server which directly connects with the primary server laptop.
I have a domain name listed along with 2 IP address's.
My question is, is it possible to run all of this from home? And with limited server/web hosting skills, will I be able to administer all of this without having to go through a 3rd party? (Such as godaddy).
*If this is in the wrong forum or if this was asked by another member, I'm sorry. This is my first day in daniweb and am in desperate need for support. Thank you.
