This is really nothing to do with Tomcat and the answers will all depend on how your computer is set up at home.
If you have a router or firewall you will need to forward the traffic to your computer on port 8080. You don't necessarily need to buy a domain as you will be able to access it with just the IP address but that's up to you. -----Original Message----- From: Nikolay Georgiev [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 05 December 2005 14:55 To: users@tomcat.apache.org Subject: How to Connect Tomcat to the Internet? Hello, My applications are running locally on Tomcat and I would like to make them accessible from the Internet, but I have absolutely no idea how. I've tried searching with google, but couldn't find much info. So I think that first of all I should buy a domain. Let's say that It's name is www.something.com/me . Then somehow I should tell that this domain should point to my computer at home. Then I'm asking myself, how to install Tomcat in such a way that it will accept connections from the Internet. So I'm not really sure how can I do this thing, maybe someone can point me the right direction?
