So I am thinking about getting a small home server for a few things (legit not illegal)
The thing is I don't know much about servers. I don't need much space but speed is of factor which means talking my mom into a faster internet connection.
Can anyone point me to a few articles/ebooks on running a server ?
I am only familiar with hosting lol.
Just a few sites of mine and a irc/vent. What bothers me though is I also wanted to make a vpn .... it be the same IP so it's pointless.

Found that like I said not much will be on it mostly just to learn off of it.
How would I go about connecting to that. I don't know much command line and never installed a OS on something that didn't already have one.
