in general, I did the same thing, but I still can't see my server "live". I know I have to do something else - but can't figure it out. today I was in library and didn't find anything about this in any of the books I read. :( Clayton wrote:
On router Forwarded all incoming calls to port 80 on 192.168.2.xxx (ip of the server, xxx - see next question :)). Can't see the server (timed out).
What else I have to do to be able to see the server from "outside" (inside network works fine)? Can sombody point to some manuals on internet that I can follow? All stuff I found (google, CoolSolutions, arhive) wasn't any help.
xxx issue: How cam I define IP e.g. 192.168.2.100 to my server by using Yast? Because of some problem with router, I had to restert/reset the router several times last month and, since use DHCP server on router, every time I got different IP for my server? I know it's possible to sefine IP for server and it will stay always the same, but can't figure out how?
I'm running my own webserver behind a standard router firewall. I had to assign a fixed IP to my computer that is running the webserver and forward the specific port (80) to the specific IP in the "Virtual Server" tab of my router setup pages. Once I did that, my webserver was able to be contacted from the internet. I didn't need to do anything odd in YAST (other than tell it my NIC had a FIXED IP instead of using DHCP).
Does this get you rolling the right direction?
