Apache Question - Securing against unwanted use with cable modem
I have built a Linux machine in my home using Mepis Linux and I'm running Apache on it.
I want to use Apache on my machine and use it as testing area for web pages and other applications.
I use a cable modem to connect to the internet. The Linux box is connected to a router, which connects to the modem.
My cable internet provider forbids people using their regular home line to hook up a web server and serve pages.
All I want to do is test pages, not serve them to the rest of the Internet.
What do I do to run Apache on my Linux box, but make sure that on I can see it in my home and not accidently turn my machine into a server that the whole world can see or peek into?
Thanks!

Apache::Session::Serialize::Sybase(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Apache::Session::Serialize::Sybase(3pm)
NAME
Apache::Session::Serialize::Sybase - Use Storable to zip up persistent data and unpack/pack to put into Sybase-compatible image field
SYNOPSIS
use Apache::Session::Serialize::Sybase;
$zipped = Apache::Session::Serialize::Sybase::serialize($ref);
$ref = Apache::Session::Serialize::Sybase::unserialize($zipped);
DESCRIPTION
This module fulfills the serialization interface of Apache::Session by taking the data from Apache::Session::Serialize::Storable and
modifying it to work with Sybase IMAGE fields. Note that you do not need to quote these values before inserting into the database, and that
if you are using DBI::Sybase, you cannot use the data in a placeholder. If you use Apache::Session::Sybase as your session class, this will
all get taken care of.
AUTHOR
Apache::Session::Serialize::Storable was written by Jeffrey William Baker <jwbaker@acm.org>; the Sybase-specific data manipulation was
written by Mark Landry <mdlandry@lincoln.midcoast.com> for use in an earlier version of Apache::Session::DBI::Sybase and placed here by
Chris Winters <chris@cwinters.com>.
