If all
you want to do is run a web server, you might consider http://www.addr.com. I stumbled into them the
other day. They offer domain and web hosting for under $10. They
support almost any web feature imaginable in a high end account for under $15,
including databases. Unless you need a dedicated line for another reason,
I would recommend something like this and using your regular account as a dialup
as it will save you $$$.
BTW,
they will relay unlimited mail from *@yourdomain.com to whatever local server you
want to setup. This is nice. They claim they are doing relaying
which means they should hold the mail to be forwarded to your local server at
whatever static IP. Or you should be able to forward mail from yourname@yourdomain.com to yourname@yourisp.com. Either way,
this puts the burden of 24x7 on them.
Having
said this, I love having a dedicated ISDN line with local servers. I have
complete control with no limitations on webspace or email
accounts.
I know
this was off topic, but it may be a desirable solutions ...
