Linux with swbell dsl?

Wed May 29 13:34:12 CDT 2002

I run RedHat 7.1 and use easydns.com's secondary dns service, I too have the
swbell enhanced dsl which gives me 5 static ip addresses. I run 3 boxes 1
)Apache/Tomcat/Jetspeed on the linux box, 2)W2K IIS/Coldfusion/ASP, 3) W2K
Apache/Tomcat for playing with my DB2/XML databases.

on a similar note, is anyone on the list currently using SWB DSL to run

a web site from home? i'm moving on Thursday and SWB is shipping me the

DSL self-install kit in a couple of days. I just wanted to know ahead

of time if I can continue to run my web site out of my house, or if I

will need to find a host somewhere.
