You have to have your own server. Hosting on servers can be as cheap as $5.00 a month. Goto google and type in hosting and you will find plenty of hosts.

Is Apache a hosting?? I know it's a http server. You told me what kind of server it was. I'm getting Apache for Windows XP pro. Thank You for helping me Bigwebmaster. If Apache will work as a hosting. I will let you know when i have it setup so i can upload. Well thanks again

You can not use Apache to host sites because for one you have no domain name and number 2 your dialup connection is not going to be sufficient. If you want to use Apache for your HTTPD server you will need to purchase something online such as virtual hosting.

what pic do you want to hotlink? and if your apache was working, you
could hotlink it yourself. ;)

I don't need points, I need $5/mo. You can mail it to me.

the definition of hotlink is when you upload a picture (or file) to any given server, and then display that picture on another server remotely. thus using their bandwidth instead of the server your displaying it from. ozzu does not allow hotlinking of any kind. and you really have no way to do it anyway, unless for some reason you were to hotlink your avatar.. and that is still not allowed...

im not sure i understand how you would like us to test your apache? is it running on your windows machine? if so we would need an IP address in order to see if it is working.. and displaying your ip address publicly isnt reccomended... besides your dial up if i recall and that wouldnt be very good for a server

ok if i understand correctly for the information you need. For the Network Domain i put this in localhost

For the server name i put this in localhost

http://localhost/

I'm pretty sure that's the IP address. The reason why i asked can you guys test it. Bigwebmaster tested my Internet connection by a trace route. Ever since then, I think you guys can test everything. That site is above. Will that be my server?
