So make your home machine a 'real' webserver by adding a mail server
also. It is best done if you have dsl and a domain name but i know
people who have done it without (but not practical).
If you are in a windows environment go to www.winfiles.com and search
on main server. there are some free and some not so free. worked
well with my omnihttpd server
