I want to get DSL, but I don't want to pay for an ISP on top of it. I can get the line itself run to my house for $15 month.

I currently am using a computer with Mandrake 10.1 on it as my Firewall/router. What packages and configuration do I need to utilize to use DSL with no ISP. (resolving hosts locally?)

Do I need to register a domain name to do this?

That can be interesting, you are going to need a domain if you are going to be found for web visitors and e-mail.

Here are a few links with some info, others here have done this sort of thing and you might get something from them too.

Wow! Thanks much stan_qaz! I will repost here if I run into any snags.

The links above are full of useful information. However, I am only interested in being the ISP for those in my house. I do not want to "resell" my badwidth.
Just trying to save a few $.

You never know, doing something fancy with a reseller may be more than you want to do but adding a WiFi box and splitting your DSL bill with a nearby friend is done a lot.

A lot of us satellite users are sharing with friends as we travel around the country. All we have added is a cheap wiFi router like the LinkSys WRT54G and set it up with encryption to keep unwanted folks from tapping in too.
