[H-GEN] Installing a website!

[Russell Mathews]

Hi all,

 

Installing a website!

I am hoping that someone will be able to assist me.   I hope that it 
will not involve anyone else in a great amount of time.

 

I want to have my website up and running.  I am okay with writing the 
actual website in Mozilla/Netscape. I just need to be able to find where 
to load my website files under Linux, and to make it accessible from the 
web as well as ensuring that I am not hacked.

 

I have ADSL and a static IP.  I have two boxes connected. One is a 
Windows box and one is a dual boot box.  I want to put my website(s) up 
under Linux.   I installed the Latest Fedora; Fedora Core 4.    At 
present I will probably use the Linux box for mainly my webserver.   I 
probably have already installed the directories where I should place my 
Index.html and other website files, but do not know its name or how to 
access it.     

 

I tried to access my site by http://<IPaddress <http://%3cipaddress/>> 
but was met with a dialogue Login box from my DLink Modem/Router.   So, 
I think I have at least two problems.
