Is it possible to run a pub on a home server without a domain name?

[MPE2016]

Title pretty much explains my question:)
If so, how do it do it?:)

hi @MPE2016, to run a pub from home, you'll need two things:

• a static public IP address for your home internet, or a DDNS name pointing to your dynamic public IP address (you can use a service like DuckDNS to help)
• your home router to forward the Scuttlebutt port (8008) onto your home server (see port forwarding), you can do this by configuring your router or if your router supports UPnP then you can run a script on your server to periodically tell your router to open the port (e.g. using miniupnpc, the command would be upnpc -r 8008 TCP)

hope this helps 😺
