-Command line (no graphicall user interface) Ubuntu server edition...
-DynDNS automatic dynamic IP updater so that the web address points to the right place if my IP gets changed since I do not have Static IP web service...
AND IT WORKED!!! after a little bit of wrestling with a command line OS I got it working!

Cool! Congrats on it. Command line OS's totally beyond me and I'll never get my hands on them.

it is very easy and fun u hsould try it!
Only issue is that my ISP does not allow any kind of servers. I wonder how long it will take for them to figure it out and kill my service

ISP. They don't allow any kind of servers because they want you to buy expensive services from them.

I think you should kill the server before they kill your internet. You aren't gonna last long without it.

The connection has timed out
The server at shovenose.dyndns.org is taking too long to respond.
Unlucky.

I shut off the server because my internt was slow and flaky this morning. It looks like they caught on already.
Now that I've stopped running the server for about a day, the internet is up fine again.

To be honest, there isn't really a huge benefit of running your own server, it's a lot harder than signing up and paying a couple of dollars a month for servers that are already setup.
To run a server, in my opinion, you need to have a datacenter.
