<DIV>Since switching to DSL from ISDN I have also lost the ability of 
accessing&nbsp;my server using the WWW address. So I modified the HOST file 
[local IP&nbsp; <A href="http://www.address">www.address</A>] </DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Okay, the router does it. Now, I still don't
see 
why he would want to access the web server on HIS lan by using the external
IP. 
As he said he is able to access by the local IP, and as I said, and one
other if 
I'm not wrong, am able to access the site using the external IP, what would
be 
the reason for accessing it from the lan using the external IP??? It seems
all 
forwarding is being done and the site IS up and running
properly.</FONT></DIV>

  <DIV>Chestnut,</DIV>
  <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV>Entering your external IP&nbsp;WILL access your web&nbsp;site, even
when 
  typed at the server (just tested it).&nbsp; Your access.log file will
show 
  your gateway address (in Steve's case 192.168.1.1) instead of the usual 
  external access IP.&nbsp; Sometimes, in my instance anyway, you have to
enter 
  the "<A href='http://"'>http://"</A> along with the IP.&nbsp; But
...&nbsp;if 
  virtual hosting is active and there's nothing at base host, then you get 
  nothing.</DIV>
  <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV>I don't understand why it doesn't work the same as my
operation.&nbsp; 
  For the sake of comparison:</DIV>
  <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV>Router is a Linksys BEFW11S4 wireless 4-port (first version, nearly
2 
  years old)</DIV>
  <DIV>Router's address is changed to 10.168.1.1 and is also the
gateway</DIV>
  <DIV>Subnet mask is 255.255.248.0 (I don't know why)</DIV>
  <DIV>DHCP services are on with addresses starting at 10.168.1.100</DIV>
  <DIV>DMZ Host is set to 10.168.1.50 (notice outside DHCP territory but 
  shouldn't matter)</DIV>
  <DIV>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (*I have tried Port Forward and that works slick 
  too!)</DIV>
  <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV>Computer is a hand-me-down P166 that I just upped the mem to 256MB; 
  3.25GB HD.</DIV>
  <DIV>Running a Xitami 2.5c1 console (xidos.exe) in a DOS windows on
Windows 
  98SE (does service work?)</DIV>
  <DIV>HTTP port is changed to 1975 and FTP is disabled</DIV>
  <DIV>Virtual Host is active (and actually working) but base host is 
  blank.</DIV>
  <DIV>Server is manually configure to 10.168.1.50</DIV>
  <DIV>Gateway&nbsp;is entered as 10.168.1.1 along with subnet&nbsp;mask 
  255.255.255.0</DIV>
  <DIV>DNS IPs are&nbsp;also entered manually and can be found on 
  the&nbsp;router's&nbsp;Status page</DIV>
  <DIV>Other servers installed: Fictional Daemon (FTP and Telnet) and
Mercury 
  Mail</DIV>
  <DIV>Also on board: MySQL and PHP</DIV>
  <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
  <DIV>I think that's all.&nbsp; Hope this is useful.</DIV>

    <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Steve, do you mean that you enter
24.209.120.13 
    when within your own network, if so that will not work, need to be on
the 
    outside, another computer accessing from somewhere other than your own 
    place. The setup appears to be fine. I accessed your site at 24... and
it 
    loads fine. Even went to the link on The ORIGINAL DARWIN... and it
loads, 
    went to one of the links from there, fine. It appears to me that your
setup 
    is working as you want it to. I would say you are doing nothing 
    wrong.</FONT></DIV>

      <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Ive posted a couple of times now about
trying 
      to run the xitami web server from my computer.&nbsp; It's set up pn a 
      broadband connection that is shared with a Linksys router between two 
      computers.&nbsp; I set this computer (Windows XP) &nbsp;to have a
manual 
      IP of 192.168.1.2&nbsp; (the router's IP is 192.168.1.1) with the
subnet 
      mask being set to 255.255.255.0, the default gateway as
192.168.1.1.&nbsp; 
      When I ran ipconfig/all I got 3 DNS numbers and put the first two in
as my 
      primary and alternate DNS servers.&nbsp; I then set the router up in
the 
      advanced/DMZ HOST IP ADDRESS to be 192.168.1.2 and turned the Xitami
web 
      server on.&nbsp; When I enter <A 
      href="http://192.168.1.1">http://192.168.1.1</A> into the browser it
goes 
      to the router set-up, which is good.&nbsp; When I try to access pages
on 
      the internet, it works, which is good.&nbsp; When I enter <A 
      href="http://192.168.1.2">http://192.168.1.2</A> it loads the
index.html 
      page I put in the Xitami server folder, which is great.&nbsp; Here's
the 
      problem, however... when I look up my IP address online (the one
assigned 
      to me via my ISP) I get 24.209.120.13.&nbsp; When I enter <A 
      href="http://24.209.120.13">http://24.209.120.13</A>&nbsp;into my
browser, 
      I get nothing, which is bad.&nbsp; It seems that I have everything
set up 
      right and straightened out, but I still cant get access to the web
site Im 
      trying to host from this computer.&nbsp; What am I doing wrong, or
what 
      else can I do?&nbsp;
