I currently have a small network running Redhat 6.0 Linux and Windows
2000 on various machines. My internet connection is currently through a
100 MHZ Pentium running RH 6.0 and Samba using a dial up modem with my
ISP assigning dynamic IP's every time I connect. My P100 gets that
dynamic IP, and my private network uses 192.168.0.1 for that machine and
192.168.0.2 etc for the other machines.
Now, I will soon be getting a permanent connection that has a static IP.
(I can get additional IP's, for a fee, but, hopefully I won't need them.
The question, now, is this. Once I have this static IP, always on
connection, I want to fire my isp and bring the webpage and mail server
"in-house". What do I need to do so that mail and web page requests go
to my domain, which I own? (aeroconsult.com) Is it just a matter of
contacting Internic and telling them that now I am hosting the web page
and mail, and this is the IP address? Or is it more complicated?
TIA,
Ed
