do you have your webserver sitting in a dmz zone, or is it behind your router/firewall? are you forwarding any ports if not in the dmz zone? do you have a host record pointing to your ip address on your router

set a static ip on your webserver, then take that ip address for you webserver and plug it into the routers port forwarding page, and set it with port 80 and enable it. a host record would be used to associate a domain name to your webserver (ie www.stupidstuff.com would be resolved to an ip address which directs it to your webserver if you set up a host record with that domain name and your ip address. u first have to register for a domain with godaddy or some other registrar before you can create a host record). its not needed, you can still get to the weberver without a host record with your routers ip address, but you will have to give everyone that ip address in order to get to the webserver. |

the only way would be to give out the ip address, or sign up for a domain and create a host recording pointing to your ip address.

even though you have a dynamic ip address, from my experience as long as you dont turn off your router you tend to keep the same one, but there is no gaurantee.
yes. yes that is the page start & end ports are 80 set it to TCP and the static ip of your web server, enable it and save the changes |

WAMP makes hosting online sites and ftp easy as for your IP set a no-ip.com address.

I like to use dyndns.org so I don't have to know my changing ip address all the time.

i use dnspark.net and use directupdate running on my pc's/servers.
i bought a domain like remote555.com, and then for all clients i install direct update and set up a host record for each clients pc, for example. one client i would give him pc1.remote555.com which can be used to connect to there pc, another client i would use pc2.remote555.com and so on. makes it easy for me to admin all of them without having to talk them through getting me there wan ip to connect remotely. |

Not to sound stupid but you have to leave your connection on when going this stuff right?

you have to leave your web server on in order for people to be able to view your webpage, if you sign up for ddns, then usually there is a program that will start and run in the background (for me its direct update) so if your ip changes then the program will update my host record for the change in the ip address.

i paid $8/yr for the domain from www.godaddy.com
dnspark gives you two free accts and direct update is a free download So $8 is the total cost Last edited by Alaron; 11-03-2006 at 08:25 PM. |
