Hello,

I run WindowsXP Pro with IIS installed with MS Office 2003 FrontPage & FP
server extensions. With a static IP address & external DNS, can I host a
simple WWW site from a WindowsXP computer? If so, how is it done differently
than on a server with IIS. Please give details.

Thanx!
 
Yes, but not recommended, as it is limited to 10 connections (users, images, pages, etc. all count
towards the 10 connections)
