Ut Oh, I'm back with more questions.

I have been doing some research lately on how to run my server to host from my house.

I really don't want to run on http://mydomain.com:81, I want just http://mydomain.com .

I was reading this thread: http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=46370 (It's pretty old, so I didn't reply). So if my ISP blocks 80, with a port tunneling app, I can run my site on 81, but not have 81 on my domain name? I'm not sure if I understood it right or not. And if this works for port 80, would it work for 110/25 (POP3/SMTP)? I'd like to run a mail server (But I'm pretty confused with WIN2k3 POP3/SMTP right now, so if you have any links that'd be great.) Figured out POP3, just need a relay for SMTP.

And also, are there any apps that can detect what ports I have blocked by my ISP? On port scans it says all my ports (Even the ones I KNOW are OPEN) are "stealth".

it can be done, but it is not easy unless you have somewhere to bounce it to.

I write a lot of custom webservers, which because of IIS generally have to live on different ports, so you problem is a fairly common one for me. I use a program called Octagate, which is a http tunneller. I have an advantage because I have quite a few servers, so the domains can get pointed at the octagte server which in turn redirects the request to the correct server and port.

Thanks Huw, Unfortunately I don't have anywhere to bounce to, but I think I figured it out in the ZoneEdit DNS...
