I've been tinkering around with the possibility of a Web based BBS on my 
FreeBSD box.  Is there any drawbacks or considerations I may have overlooked 
in setting up my machine using Apache httpd or other server, and having dial 
in access to my pages.  There would not be any gateway out to the internet 
just my own local pages.  Also is this same principal possbile for an internal 
FTP site that these same people can access through dial up service?

Any info is appreciated!
Thanks-
Bleau
