Networking Tutorials and Articles

[animaguy]

I am new to the basic concepts of networking.

Can anyone recommend lins to articles and tutorials that I can read to further my understanding of networking?

I am trying to build a web server with CentOS using a dynamic ip address and the topic of networking and apache linux-config.py is my main concern right now.

Hui,

this depends how much you want to go into the understanding of Linux and/or Networking. Both are different World, which meet from time to time.

If you just like to have a small HowTo for CentOS regard this you should search for CentOS with Apache and for later DynDNS (Didn't found something so quick). I guess this is you real intention. If not, correct me.

You should care about your firewall and just allow a simple port forwarding. Keep it as simple as possible.
Ensure first! That you Apache Configuration is stable/secure (not able to access e.g /etc/shadow or something)

Apache Documentaion
CentOS + Apache HowTo
DynDNS README FIRST

This Links should be helpful.

so far

PS: This is basic web, Networking goes into a different direction. Networking is for me build and maintain (IP) Networks.

Akendo,

Do you know the difference between a public and private ip address or

the difference between RFC1918 or RFC3330

Thank you for these links, Akendo. Very helpful.
Also animaguy, I am looking into rfc1918 and rfc1330. They appear to be different allocations for various IP Address ranges. I will look more into this.
