Why won't my HTTP server allow others access?
My HTTP server works for me. . . but when anyone other than on my local machine tries to view my webpage it says server not found. I also assume i have everything set up fine. I used the wizard(laugh).

Get a real webserver...
I use Apache 1.3 for Windows on my server, works great
http://24.182.188.171
Just moved to a dedicated server, trying to figure out how to get a DNS server setup so I can use my domain name, outrigged.com.

www.ancker.net you'll see that it's on APACHE
I'm just playing with this 2k Server Pro box..

IIS works fine. I have four seperate web sits on my server and they work fine.

I have DSL and I use a Linksys DSL router so I'm not sure how you would set it up using dialup. You might find an answeer over at http://www.windows2000faq.com/

I only use IIS and have had no (real ) issues since version 2.
Here are some shots in the dark on this one, as I have never hosted a site through a modem before. Are you giving out the proper IP everytime you connect to the net with the modem? Do you have the site setup to respond to "All Unassigned" and have no "Host Header Names" assigned to your site? What thing that tends to happen is if you have *anything* listed for a header name, then that site will ONLY respond that the header names that are entered (i.e. if you have "test" for a header name it will not respond to 210.24.55.128, yourname.dynip.com, or anything else coming in unless they are also added as header names).

Any of you guys interested in detailing to me how to setup the DNS server included in Windows 2000 Adv. Server for my domain name?
I'm using some shitty third party software right now, and it expires in 14 days. I don't feel like spending $70 USD on it either, lol.

http://www.windows2000faq.com/ can tell you how to setup your DNS server.
Do you have a static IP? And, do you have your domain name registered yet? You would need both of these to start off with. In addition, Win2K DNS REALLY wants a secondary server to sync with. I imagine that if you run it in simple text file mode you might be able to get away with one box and not fill up the event logs with errors. Also, if you want to continue this dialog, create a new thread in "Networking" so others will take a look at it.
