hey sometime this week im gettin my sympatico internet workin and since its a 1.5mbs dsl connection and im at school all day i figured id do something usefull with it and like set up a small ftp server and host like some sort of forums like for my buddies.

would anyone know where to start? the ftp shouldnt be too hard as there are programs out there that just do it for ya, but what about the forums? id have to install like cgi and php and other stuff like that wouldnt i?

thx for any help!

I'd be willing to bet that your contract with your DSL provider does not allow this.
