Dynamioc DSL lin - Setting up & Hosting web server - How to?

-Alex

I have searched but have not found any basic how-to setup a web server on a
DSL line with dynamic addresses.

I have found a service that notifies me of any change in my ip address and
updates an entry for my ip-address on DnyDns.org. I have not found anything
useful that walks thru going thru a router to the server machine.

Can anyone point me to where this info may be available.

There must be many who have setup web servers using their home DSL Dynamic
address.

Thanks,
Alex

Open up port 80 to your private IP.
Then use http://myaccount.dyndns.org for the URL from the Internet.

Dynamic address.

Yes, there are. Personally, I don't want to allow that traffic onto a small
LAN, but that's just me.

I have done that....In this case, port 80 equates to 192.168.1.80.

and http://myaccount.dyndns.org results in "The page cannot be
displayed".

Don't know why that is but is there a way to test this without going
thru dyndns??

Yes - try http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (your public IP address).
Does your ISP block inbound traffic? They might, if you're on a 'home'
account connection with them... I'm presuming that going to the page with
the local name or IP from inside works fine.
 
Hi Alex,

Thank you for posting here!

The IP address 192.168.7.80 looks like a kind of private IP address. I
suspect that your DSL modem has NAT enabled. You may go to the DSL modem
configuration interface. Some DSL modem can be configured by a web page.
For the detailed instruction, you may consult the manufacture. In the DSL
modem configuration page, you may find a place to set IP forward or DMZ
settings, which can be used to forward the related request from the public
IP and port to the private IP and port. Without such configuration, the
request from public Internet cannot be forward to your web server in
private network. In addition, some DSL modem configuration web page uses 80
port. If it is the case, when you visit by the external IP address or the
external domain name (like http://myaccount.dyndns.org). It will open the
DSL modem configruation page. However, all of the above is subjected to be
changed due to different DSL modem. Please consult the manufacture for the
detail information.

Have a nice day!

Thanks, Feng.

It seems like I have it working now but I will need to test things to verify
and understand all this.

Thanks,
