I plan to host an opengrid, free, as a way for me to learn more about opensim. Since I won't be publishing it or pushing it, I would imagine a small amount of users, while open, it would be friends, people from school, perhaps at most 20 people at one time (if my class at grad school does a virtual meeting). I would like to use grid mode. I am working on setting up opensim on one of my computers, I think I am okay there. My questions, I think though this is new, lie more in how I point the domain name to my home (by changing the A record I assume) and then how do I tell my home network to go to a specific dedicated computer, or will it know that. Those types of things.<br>

Okay, so I finally got the T1 and dedicated IP for my home internet connection. I was thinking of trying to host my opensim from my home - I have the connection speed, the dedicated IP, and 5 gaming computers, so I think its a good setup. All my computers are windows 7 machines (I know). Anyway, I don't even know where to start when it comes to setting everything up so that I can not only host opensim but possibly my own websites from home. Any direction towards instructions, etc., would be appreciated. Many thanks in advance,<div>
