Right now I have an old IBM computer sitting around with Windows XP Home, 512mb of RAM, 40gb hard drive space, and a Pentium 4 2.4ghz processor. And I was wondering how I would make a small shared hosting service for about 10 friends and myself for free? I have searched all over the internet and have found nothing.
How do I make a shared hosting service on a Windows machine?
Call a web hosting that would be a good idea.
Call a remote desktop would be an also good idea.
Call a peer to peer program also good idea.
What else you would like to know.
How do I make a shared hosting service on a Windows machine?
Web/file hosting? its possible.
1 is abyss web server

another is apache
http://httpd.apache.org/
Just put the files you want to host into the htdocs folder. To access them, http://"yourdomain/ip"/(name of file or folder)
sample
http://58.486.361.15/hi.doc
or you can use
http://127.0.0.1/hi.doc
But this is only possible when your using the computer where you are hosting the files
How do I make a shared hosting service on a Windows machine?
Remove Windows and install Linux with Apache web server, MySQL server, and PHP as a minimum.
You will need a broadband internet connection with a static IP address.
You will need to do a lot of reading (even with Windows) to get this up and running.
