If you've got your own domain, you'll probably want to run your own primary DNS for it and get Real-Time (or one of the free DNS services) to do secondary for you. Just read the DNS-HOWTO; it's not difficult to set up. > proxy? (squid ) *shrug* If you're into that sort of thing. I don't feel a need for a caching web proxy, but I do run a filtering proxy (junkbuster). Hardly necessary, though. > possibly www & ftp (not anonymous) at some point (apache & one of the > ftpd's ) Yeah, you're probably going to want an httpd, and apache's the tool of choice there. If you don't want to offer anon ftp and you're running ssh[1], take a look at sftp. It's basically just the ftp protocol run over an ssh connection. Very nice, friendlier than scp, and with all the security of ssh. And it's not yet-another-daemon-running-as-root.
