I've been trying to configure apache to host a web page from my home IP address, but i can't seem to figure out how to do it.
To see if my ISP, Router, etc. was capable of actually doing this, i downloaded and installed the Peacefire Circumventor, which installed and configured everything for me. It worked, so when i went to http://<my wan ip>/peacefire658066 or something close to that, it would go to the page hosted on my server.
So obviously, it's possible to do it, i just can't quite figure it out.

Torvalds was contemptuous of Microsoft's claims and has asked Redmond to name the patent infringements so that their veracity can be challenged and workarounds found.
"Naming them would either make it clear that Linux is not infringing at all (which is quite possible, especially if the patents are bad), or would make it possible to avoid infringing by coding around whatever silly thing they claim,"
"So the whole 'We have a list and we're not telling you' should tell you something. Don't you think that if Microsoft actually had some really foolproof patent, they'd just tell us and go, 'nyaah, nyaah, nyaah!'?"
