Hello ! Your advices and experience would be appreciate! We are not sure what to do with student server connected to university network. Every student association has a server for webserver, listserv, software development tool... We are thinking about offering server hosting for legitimate student server If IT service cannot offer any equivalent. What are the policies in other university about student server (if you prefer server that are not administer by university IT service)? We really don't like that student can setup server and have a public IP address. University can't control what is published over the Internet and complaint received about such server are harder to follow, intervene and complaints keeps coming. We plan using private addressing for the university network for many reason so we are facing a problem with those kind of server. Does many university use private address? Does any university host student server or have a policy? Does any university authorize student to setup their own server?
