How do I host my website to the internet using my windows server 2003? It has intel core2duo E6600 and 2GB ram, I'm expecting little traffic from the internet. Thanks! Can you please point me to a step by step tutorial? Thanks!

There's a whole lot you're asking here. First off, what kind of ISP do you have? Are you trying to run this off of a server in your home, or are you hosted somewhere that they can provide you with a public IP address?

The next step may be to get a book (or some solid online documentation) about IIS.

"I'm expecting little traffic from the internet" No but you will have a whole lot of hackers using the server if not configured correctly.

Sounds like to me your getting in way over your head in this and might want to seek a professional to set the server up were your wanting to host it.

PS just to add a note here if they do (HACKER and they will be coming) something criminal and they trace the IP back to you what are you gonna do?
