 Introduction
of the Project
 Body

Building of Web Server PC


Components
Implementation of Untangle
External Security
Explanation of IIS
 Conclusion
2
 Felt
the need for more server experience.
 Friend is in need of a place to re-home his
websites.
 Security and Servers are in my intended
career path
3
 There
is a need for a web server to host
multiple web sites on.
 Many sources explained different ways to
set up IIS in Windows 7.
 Essentials for problem solving


What exactly was being re-home on the server
Could server communicate through a Linux
based security setup.
4
I
did research on multiple topics for this
project, including:






Windows 7 IIS capabilities
Managing IIS and web sites
Building Web Pages using Adobe products
Compatibility of DD-WRT
Untangle Implementation
PC construction
5
 Friends,
and myself looking for a place to
home and re-home websites.
 Sub-Problem: Security concerns to protect
sensitive information.
6
I
will be setting up this network on
campus. This may hamper the ability to
have the intended security working
properly.
 Test conditions will be a simulation of a
local web page, and a web page donated
to me by my friend working on the web
server.
7
 List
steps taken to solve the problem such as but
not limited to:



Starting with an idea of using Windows 7 with a dual
partition on the hard drive with a Linux based web
server.
Changed initial idea to having a dual partition with
Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2.
Finalized an idea of using Windows 7 and it’s internal
IIS.


The final solution involved me building a PC to
use as a web server. It allowed me to know
exactly what was going into the project.
Software Involved in the project:



Assembly involved computer construction, and network
infrastructure
Tested computer upon completion
 Computer failed to start at first, but was easily fixed
Set security up on router, and in Untangle
 Network worked without Issue
Built a sample webpage, and obtained one from friend for
re-homing testing
 Many problems occurred with hosting at first, solved
though many tutorials and learning how IIS worked.
Can access public hosted webpage though security.
11
 Results:



Computer was built and functioning
Web server was installed/configured
Ability to access web page though security.

 Significance


of project:
Shows ability to troubleshoot and maintain
computers and networks with security.
Gained valuable knowledge of servers in general.
 Allowed
me to gain and use knowledge
learned to put a project into place. I can use
everything I learned in a future workplace
15
 Additions:


Use of DD-WRT(Strengthened security)
Involved more server roles, such as RADIUS, AD, or
DNS
