Can I run a server on Optusnet Cable?
It is technically possible, but running any kind of server on your computer is against the Acceptable Use Policy. Until recently, there was no evidence that Optusnet Cable actively verified if you were running a server; however, in mid September, they suspended a number of users for a fortnight because they had ports open -? regardless of whether or not they were actively being used. On 14 September 2001, an article was posted to Whirlpool with more detail: http://whirlpool.net.au/article.
