The likelyhood is your ISP will shut your connection off for selling services on a residential package, your upload speed will be crap and you won't be able to afford a cPanel license.

Just don't even try.

NOBODY WILL BUY HOSTING FROM A SERVER THAT IS LOCATED IN YOUR HOUSE.

You do not have any experience managing it, you do not have a uninterruptable power supply and a backup generator, you are not (I think) using server grade hardware and you do not have a high speed parallel internet connection of at least 10Mbps, preferably 100Mbps.

Hmmm :/

perhaps you are right, I am still going to try and host my own website on it, just for experience purposes and about the 'uninterruptable power supply' most GOOD power supplys will do that job for you. Even laptops now can last for MONTHS with a power inlet obvs.

Uninterruptable power supply means if your electricity goes off the server still has power.

By all means set it up for your own playing and learning, but don't take this home server thing any further than that (as in selling services from it).

Ohh LOL my bad about the power supply, but thanks for the info and 'support'
