Yes, @home does forbid the running of servers. Usually they do not enforce their policy unless someone complains. Unfortunately, someone did. Victor On Tue, 2 May 2000, Argentium G. Tiger wrote:

Does @Home's TOS forbid running services? If so, dump 'em amd good riddance. Your money is better spent on a service provider that concentrates on providing you the bandwidth you pay for, without dictating what you can or can not do with it.
...Strangly enough if I where to run Windows I could get DSL service much cheaper at $199/month. Unfortunaly I hate winblows and won't run it.
Running windows is a requirement for DSL in your corner of the world?
A method for getting around this is to install windows on a junker box just long enough to pacify a DSL installer. After the installer has left, you port the DSL modem, NIC, and settings over to a linux box and it's business as desired.
