This is freking hilarious..The Windoze expert who has successfully
installed a plug and pray hard drive (probably with help from Geek
Squad) wants to run a news server, This is too funny.

Unless you:

1) Have a static IP OR don't mind paying for a Dynamic DNS Service

AND

2) Really *want* an extensive hobby configuring and running Apache



I'd go with one of the Web Hosting services (which also come with lots
of other perks and amenities) and let them worry with the hardware
acquisition and maintenance, software configuration, security
headaches (you'll need a dedicated IP or you'll have to open a port to
the server(s)), and up/down time.

Though I'd be glad to help.....


Yeah...I'm sure you are right.

I do have a windows home server, which I can use as a a generic server,
sort of.

Actually, the lake is hosting the largest fishing tournament in the
nation in 2010, the Forrest Wood Cup. Oh, and it's came up a foot
recently! Here's a link about the Cup coming:

Maybe in 2 years things will be OK, but I wouldn't put any eggs in
that basket unless you plan on talking the ACoE into cutting off the
water to all states downstream.... so they can have the tournament.

Lanier is 20 feet low and predicted to go lower! The level is so low
that Action Zone 4 is in effect. IOW, "Zone 4 indicates that
navigation is not supported. Hydropower demands will be met at minimum
level and may only occur for concurrent uses. Water supply and water
quality releases are met. Minimum flow targets are met."http://water.sam.usace.army.mil/lanfc.htmhttp://water.sam.usace.army.mil/zones.htm

And it looks like only two boat ramps are open!http://lanier.sam.usace.army.mil/ParkSchedule.htm

My lake levels are rising, however.....! A benefit of global
warming..... Waterworld?

Gene, they haven't updated since we've been getting rain. Also, the
ramps that you've mentioned are only the Corps ramps. They close them
even though the are still in the water because a lot of people that
use those particular ramps sometimes don't know what they are doing,
have huge boats (even a huge houseboat manufacturer uses them), etc.
Fishings good, people are still running all over, motorboats,
sailboats, everything. Is the lake low? You bet. But, it fluctuates a
lot in winter anyway. And it's not at the record, which is good seeing
how at the end of summer we started out very low.
