[TriLUG] DNS question

You can run a website without running DNS.  
To run a website, all you need to do is load Apache on one of your Linux 
servers.

What does your internal network look like - the network behind your 
firewall?  I would run a web server on a server inside the firewall, and 
then simply open up port 80 on the firewall and run IPVSADM to push any 
requests for port 80 into the internal webserver.

If you run https then do the same for port 443.

Is this for a home based business or simply for experience?
In anycase, I would take Chris up on his offer to help.  He's knows his way 
around a webserver.  If I can be of any help, let me know as well.
