 | View Full Version : IP's? AdamW 11-02-2002, 01:26 PM What is the advantage of having your own IP address? I don't know whether to pay extra for the ip or just not get it. Can you do some things that you wouldn't be able to do with no ip address? thanks Darth 11-02-2002, 01:29 PM You can only get a dedicated ip for... SSL, name servers, and a dedicated ftp server I think :stickout: complx.net 11-02-2002, 01:32 PM you might as well go with the shared IP unless you need any of the above theres no point in wasting the IP or your money RyanK 11-02-2002, 01:49 PM There are two main reasons you would want a dedicated IP since they are IP dependent and that is Anonymous FTP and SSL. AdamW 11-03-2002, 11:32 PM thanks. your comments cleared it up for me smidwap 11-03-2002, 11:37 PM IP addresses can also be used temporarily while propagating your domain. Also, IP addresses can be used for web sites that do not have domain names and subdomains won't work. |
