This wasn't a very good tutorial. Think you could expand it more?

And plus, with all the incoming traffic, your ISP will be pissed at you haha! So, don't even try. Only use it for testing mods and styles. There are only two good reason to run a forum from your computer; the first is having the hard copy of your online forum so you can test news mods, features or even merge information from one forum into other without disrupting the service of your forum websites. The second reason that is worth to consider is when you are developing with the aid of other developers or have a sort of VIP group that you need to get into your computer's forum instead of an online one. This usually involves assign your localhost a DNS services like DynDNS or No-IP to associate your ISP's changing IP to a domain name unless you know how to do it with a fully qualified domain from the registrar DNS management. Besides such assignation, such a localhost forum usually is set up to run for some hours that only the participating group knows, but usually is not 24/7, that's for granted unless that you want to burn out your computer or use a very old that doesn't care its fate.
