I'm researching hosting a web site from my home office and would like to get some suggestions from those with experience in this area on which web server software they would recommend.
I'd like to stay with XP Pro (or software that will run my apps) and don't mind spending a few bucks, but not thousands. Email functionality and the ability to host multiple domains would be a plus.
I don't anticipate a lot of traffic, but would like to host it myself for workflow reasons. I have a computer background, and I'm currently administrating a couple of sites with Studio MX.
With XP pro you have the option of installing Microsoft IIS - which is a web server.
Its usually not installed by default but you can add it by installing optional components from the windows cd. With it you also get SMTP server (Mail) and a FTP server
