Running a Webserver with a Router?

[DennyD]

Here's the situation:

1. I'm running a webserver on my pc
2. my dot-com name goes to my public IP
3. I want to add a router and use a second pc for my own use

How do I get my dot-com name to find my webserver if the router gives a
192 IP address? Can this be done?

thanks!
Dennis

forward port 80, 443 [or whichever port that your webserver is responding
to] of the router to your webserver box.

Forward TCP Port 80 through the router to the private LAN IP, ie. the 192. address, of the server.
