HereServer Behind Router

Yea I had the same problem. Frickin 2701 HG-B Router...Ok heres an idea, that worked for me after simple port forwarding didnt. In the firewall settings, enable DMZ or DMZ-Plus (whichever you have) pointing to the server computer (the one running apache) then go to http://whatsmyip.Org and check your ip. Type that into your browser and if you get your page it worked. If it didnt you can email me and ill help.

access to a server behind a wireless router

Server Behind Router



<p>Hi, I read the problem you have to access your server from a computer in the same network. I have the same problem, but with a computer from outside the network</p>
<p>Does somebody know how I can access from the internet my website that is in a apache server behind a wireless router?</p>


With computers inside the network, using your external IP usually results in you getting access to your router, you need to setup what's known as an inside to inside Network Address Translation.

With external IP accessing a website behind a router, you need to configure port forwarding (pin-holing) on your router to allow outside connections to the internal IP:Port of your computer hosting the server. e.g. 192.168.0.4:80 for web services existing on network address 192.168.0.4


Cheers,

access server from internet to exchange files
Server Behind Router

I'm trying to access my SBS server from the remote, I have LANCOM 1511 Wireless DSL 3.42.0021, but there is nothing can show me how to access the port forwarding to communicate with my server from the remote?

Once I change to NETGEAR Prosfae VPN firewall wall router I have problems to locally communicate with the server, domain can not be contacted, GPO is not applied for the users...Etc., it could be the router itself blocking the local traffic? thanks for your help!

Joseph.

Oh, thanks, nightfox! I could never have gotten to that page with Google... I guess that's what Astahost is for! :)

Yeah, I found that site when I was trying to setup my own web server. I remember it took a while to find and it was so information filled that I printed out every part because it is such a great guide. Though I've never really setup a web server on Windows 2000 (I jumped right into a Linux server), I kept the guide for some reason. Best 28 page print job ever! Even if more than half of it is out of date, it's still a trusty guide! I've read it over and over. :)

In case the site goes down in the future, all you have to do is edit the hosts file, which is located at c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts for Windows (or System Folder for Mac). Add "YourLocalIPAddress YourDomainName" without quotes. I've tried doing "MyLocalIPAddress MyPublicIPAddress", but I guess the second part couldn't be an IP address.
Here's the reason for my problem:

Certain routers do not allow a machine 'behind' the router (i.e. on the local area network) to access itself, or to access any other machine 'behind' the router using a domain name... The router gets confused by this.


Well, I'm not sure why you can't see your page from your LAN using your WAN IP address, because I can see it ok.

Yeah, I can see it fine when I try to see it using a computer outside my network, I just couldn't do that within the network. That was the weird thing.

You should put an index file in your root to prevent the contents being shown!

Yeah, I know that, but I'm lazy and I wanted to access the pages using the hyperlinks. It's an equivalent exchange for the danger I've put myself into. :) Check out my new index page now. It's now officially the coolest home page on the whole Internet (on Guinness World Records). Yes, it's a fake link.

Here's a guide that I've had since early 2005 about running your own web server. It's located here: http://members.lycos...web/server2.htm

The guy who wrote it had the same exact problem you appear to be having as well.

Perhapes your router assumes that if you are trying to access the WAN IP address from the LAN that you want to update the router settings.

So what is "Hypercubical Animations"! :)


Well, I'll have to guess that this is resolved now. :)
