Web hosting from ethernet host
-
I have an ethernet connection with a shared connection. My gateway uses NAT for translating ip addresses. Hence i have a local ip address and my gateway having a global ip. Is there any way by which i can host web pages on my server and enable others to see them over the internet? :confused: ..._ _........o. I ( V ) MY INDIA \ / v

I think you might be able to use "port-forwarding." That is to say - create a rule on your router to direct any requests to port 80 on your external IP to your web server. I think it depends on what kind of router you have, and it would make your NAT network less secure. It might be better to go to a NoNAT configuration on the gateway, and have a Local NAT Zone and a DMZ for the webserver. Sorry I can't be more specific on the port forwarding thing - but hopefully it might help you a little. :) Best Wishes Steven
