How can I host multiple domains on an ADSL line with a dynamic ip address-linux/unix server?

TIA

Get yourself a server, either linux using Apache or NT using IIS. That's pretty much it. Oh, of course you need a domain name and a place to host your DNS. You can use http://www.centralinfo.net. It's free or you can setup your own dns. To host multiple you will use what's call host headers where you map the same ip address to multiple domain names by specify the domain name to the new site your create. For example lets say I have two domain, one is mydomain.com and the other is my2domain.com. It will look like this.

mydomain.com 10.0.1.1
my2domain.com 10.0.1.1

The browser will look for the hostheaders and know that it's a different domain name even though it's the same IP address. I can get more detailed with this but this is pretty much all you need to do multiple hosting.

Also, you'll need a service like:
http://www.dnswiz.com

Maybe even this would work:
http://www.mydomain.com/services/mydns/features

I would pay a little more a month and get a static one, otherwise you will have to keep changing your ip address.

You should also note that many Cable / ADSL companies block port 80.
You would need to use an internediary service to get round this which generally costs more than its worth.

DSL/Cable is intended for home use, I think. Using it for running a server might incur additional charges on you. It might be cheaper to get an account on a web server.
