Hi,
I am thinking of setting up a local web server for use by our clients.
This is what I have in mind,
A Linux system running a web server (Apache/ncsa/...) which gives users
dial-up access. That is, the user dials in to the system using ppp software
& a web browser like netscape, and then connects to the web server for
browsing. We are not connected to the Internet, so users will essentially
browse only local web space (maybe the Internet too once we get connected
directly).
Is this possible? I would appreciate any pointers, faqs, help on how to
go about setting this up.
Thanks,
-- Santosh
