Well I don't do scripts, so that makes sense for me still. But yeah, you are right about that. Another thread-hijacking question: What does a localhost server do to that "precious" space on your HD? |

Its not going to be a life or death situation. Most should be able to do a fine job with it. Just mess around with whatever OS you have right now to figure it out first. Then go into detail such as those. |

Set up Apache, forward your router to Port 80 and then do some other things that I don't know :'( |

Wait...your saying you've never used linux before? Get Kubuntu, use apt-get (Synaptic) to install apache, php, sql. If you've never used linux before, installing a server on a non debian distro is going to be extremely hard. |

FC3 isn't bad, in fact it was the first linux distro I used. However I've since moved to Debian which I much prefer. I'd say go with Debian or a Debian-based distro like Ubuntu/Kubuntu. |
