Question : How to convert linux web server to windows 2003 server?
Currently at work im going to convert linux web server to windows 2003 server but im not sure how to do it? Can some one tell me step by step to show mw how to do it? Since im not linux a person.
Answer:
I did this a couple of years ago (and I'm not a Linux guy either). First, you need to know what you're running on the Linux box. Your web server is probably Apache. Are you running Perl/PHP/MySQL? You will likely want to run those same services on the Windows box. If you're running Apache on Linux, are you going to stay with it on Windows or run IIS? Basically, you get everything running on the Windows server that's running on the Linux server, then move your content over. Sorry, but I don't have room (or the inclination) to write a step-by-step procedure.

Question : How to FTP Linux web logs to Windows server?
Ive been trying to figure out a script that can run on a windows 2003 server that will ftp web logs from a linux box back to the windows box on a daily basis. I can probably set the script in a schedule in the windows box but how do I write the script that will do the ftp work?I could use a hand on the syntax for a script that will do this.The FTP settings are ready I really just need the syntax on the batch script. I assume it's like xcopy something something right?
Answer:
A simple batch file is all you need. FTP was intended to be used in scripts.http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/batch.mspx?mf r=true

Question : Is it easy to setup own http linux web server?
Is it easy to setup own http web server ? I am new to apache & linux . Which apache & linux is mainly used for setting up webserver. Wht is role of cpanel in it ?
Answer:
Even though many current Linux distributions will be pretty easy to install and include Apache by default, getting a web server live safely and reliably requires a lot of configuration.If you`re not familiar with it and really want to go through with this, prepare youself to read multiple howto documents from networking, firewall, apache, etc.cPanel is a web application used to simplify some configuration options. Check their web site for many more details ( http://cpanel.com ).

Question : What's the difference between Linux web hosting and Windows web hosting.?
I just want to know what it means so I don't waste my money on the wrong thing.
Answer:
Nothing really, except you can't host IIS (ASP, ASP.net) on Non-Windows computers (apache discontinued support).The best webhosts (longest running without any downtime) are actually using BSD. Surprisingly Win2k3 is going strong too.http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/today/top.avg.html

Question : What is the most powerful firewall for a Linux web-server?
A software firewall not a hardware one.
Answer:
Various answers here. Some firewalls (Linux) come with a web server, others just run on separate PC's.Check out Distrowatch.com for the various firewalls. Some like Endian and ClarkConnect come with web servers embedded. Others like IPCop and Monowall are basic firewalls/routers.http://distrowatch.com/search.php?category=Firewall&origin=All&basedon=All&desktop =All&architecture=All&status=ActiveI run my web servers on a dedicated Ubuntu server, with ISPConfig as the admin tool for multiple sites and security.I then run a separate PC with a Linux firewall on the front end.

Question : How do I find out if I have a Linux Web Server or not?
Checking the Properties of My Computer shows: System: Microsoft Windows XP, Home Edition, Version 2002, Service Pack 2. I found out that I can have a Windows XP Operating System as well as a Linux Operating System but I don't know if this also determines my web server or not and how to determine whether I have a Linux Web Server or not.First: The reason why I need to find out this answer is that I was told in answer to another Yahoo question about how to install a redirect: "If you have a Linux Web server, then do this..."Secondly: Microsoft Help says "NOTE: Windows XP and Linux can coexist on the same computer. For additional information, refer to your Linux documentation." Well, I know I have windows. I don't know if I don't have Linux. One problem is that I don't know where to find my Linux documentation--isn't there some place on my computer where I should be able to look this data up?
Answer:
You have Windows. Linux is another operating system.It sounds like you are purchasing webspace somewhere and are unsure if you want to go with a Windows or Linux Web Server? I will answer the question from this point of view.The server is the computer that will have your website on the internet. You can go either way, your home computer OS does not have to be "compatible" with your Web Server. HTML and web scripting can be written on one OS and hosted on a different one.Linux software is free, so hosting is usually cheaper. You'll probably get Apache web server (the program that actually handles the website - probably the msot popular on the web), MySQL Database, and atleast PHP support. This setup is ideal for most websites. Linux is very reliable for any sort of hosting.Windows Server is more expensive, but supports ASP.NET. .NET Web applications can be very powerful, but will be useless to you if you don't take advantage of it.Probably the cheaper hosting plan is better, go with Linux.(Hopefully this is what you are looking for.)

Question : Whats the difference between Linux web hosting and Windows web hosting?
Heya Please tell em what the difference is between linux web hosting and windows web hosting. I made my site by dreamweaver does that affect either of the 2 i should choose please tell me thanx!
Answer:
Windows and Linux often use two different web server applications. Windows sites use the Windows IIS server, while nearly all Linux sites use Apache.Linux sites focus on PHP, Perl and other open-source script languages for server side scripting. Windows-based sites use ,NET and ASP technologies. They might also offer support for PHP.Linux sites offer MySQL as the database for backend content storage. Windows sites will probably offer SQL Server, though some offer the Windows versions of MySQL as well.There shouldn't be any difference between the two if you use strict web standards in your HTML. However, you need to be aware of the fact that, since Dreamweaver is a Windows-only product, it may insert some non-standard things into your HTML. Frontpage also does this. As long as you stick to accepted web standards and don't use any Windows-centric stuff in your site, you should have no problems with either one.

Question : Is there any difference between windows and linux web hosting?
do i need to have linux os on my computer to create a website on a linux based web host, and vice versa?
Answer:
One of the biggest misconceptions is that you have to select the same operating system for your hosting account that you use on your own computer. This is simply not true. In other words, you can select Linux for your hosting account if you currently use Windows or Mac operating systems on your own computer.All websites today currently run on either a Windows web server or a Linux-based server. The vast majority of websites run on a Linux-based platform as Linux has a strong reputation for security and web server performance. With standard (static) HTML-based websites, the web hosting platform doesn't make much difference. When it does make a difference, however, is when the website uses a dynamic scripting technology such as ASP (A Microsoft based technology), or PHP / PERL (Linux based technologies). A Windows-based hosting solution will run a Microsoft Windows server with IIS (Internet Information Server), and is necessary to run an ASP / ASP.NET scripted website. A Linux-based platform is typically used for PHP, Perl, and most other types of websites. Basically, unless your website uses ASP (pages ending in the .asp extention), Windows hosting is not necessary.As an experienced webmaster I recommend BH web hosting which I’m sure it would work for you and fulfill all your requirements.
