Hi Folks, things seem to be ticking along smoothly. Thinking about what to do next.
Been looking at BearCat's Thread in "Download Links" and comparing it to this one. One of the differences is that I basically identified my group and have "Communicated" with them quite a bit. Goes a long way to solving problems and getting things working quickly. A Great BIG Thanks to BetaNet and their Forums for making that possible. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Some Questions and Answers:
Nutcracker asked about my faster line. Actually my other line is running an FTP Server as well, but it is rather different. Basically it is something called an FTP "TarPit". That's another whole Thread in itself, for another time. If you want to have a peak you can try:
ftp://209.53.13.77 (anonymous)
modD, I used the (DMZ) in the firewall for the Server mostly because messing with all the port settings was just too much hassle. The Firewall box is mainly to "Hold" the Dynamic IP# in case I have to shutdown the machine.
VotTak, all the Threads continue, they go back to when the Board started. The Server is Win2K Adv. Server. It has all the patches and SP2 applied now. It has some "Tweaks" which you might want to think about.
A Default Win2k Server install has "Everyone" set to Full Control. I change that to Read Only real quick on all the files. In WinXP M$ finally saw the "Light" and now install "Everyone" as Read Only.
Anoher thing I do is run Inetpub on Drive D and change that name to something else (ANYTHING ELSE). I usually change FTProot and WWWroot to something else also.
If you do that your Server will be "Immune" to Code Red and Nimbda attacks (even without the M$ patches). The Server we are using has been extensively tested by those "Worms" during the summer.
