Host DayZ Standalone Private Server?

[jtpetch]

Hi, me and a lot of my friends have DayZ Standalone, from Steam, and I am wondering how I could host a private, whitelisted (or passworded, either works) server for us all to play on. I don't want to pay a host to run it, and I have pretty fast internet (35 down 10 up) and a decent computer, and I'd like to host it on my own computer (not 24/7, just for whenever we'd get on to play).
I wasn't sure where to post it (I would've done Yahoo Answers, but my account doesn't seem to be working), and I thought some of you could help. I actually couldn't find anything on the topic on Google, all there was was using paid hosts, and about the Arma Dayz.
Thanks for your help!

It's not possible currently.

Alright, thanks. Now that I see how the "shard" system works, I see why you can't host your own yet.

Anyone is welcome to our DayZ Standalone private shard server, called Hell in a Handbasket, that is admin monitored consistently.

IP is 23.250.112.194:2602

I end up here looking for exactly the same thing. But unfortunately is not possible :/ So im going to rent a server any suggestions?
