Question for those who might know.

I presently use a Windows system and I would like to host my own website. I know about EasyPHP but I have heard of LAMP which refers to a Linux system. Can I change my platform from windows to linux? I read that this is more secure interms of data etc.

Try Using XAMPP, it works for windows

Thank you.

Have you heard of YellowTipWS201 or what is Name Servers BIND? When someone wants to host their own site and they set XAMPP on their computer I suppose configuring everything becomes a question of ‘how to’ when you know as little as I do. Will this affect the config.php for my forum and can I adjust this?
