Need some Help with setup of windows 2008
I have a copy of windows 2008, i am not a I.T professional so server environments is not a strong point for me right now as im only a student. However im a fast learner and i have decided to get my head around the uses of a server and getting a head start getting to know how to create a fully functional multi-purpose server.
The first few things i have managed to do is create a backup procedure for my home network along with the setup of a teamspeak server for friends.
The next step would be to setup FTP services and Web Services
Im interested in hosting a forum using PHP im not really interested in ASP just HTML and PHP. However i have no idea how to go about setting it all up. Along with hosting a website which would be coded in html.
Could anyone point me in the direction to a tutorial on how to setup a website and FTP in windows 2008? or if anyone could take the time to walkthrough how to do so that would be great.
