You need to fix your DNS so that you're always advertising the public IPs for the hostnames. See below: # nslookup > server 216.132.149.46 Default server: 216.132.149.46 Address: 216.132.149.46#53 > comsiteconstruction.com Server: 216.132.149.46 Address: 216.132.149.46#53 Name: comsiteconstruction.com Address: 216.132.149.141 > server 216.132.149.47 Default server: 216.132.149.47 Address: 216.132.149.47#53 > comsiteconstruction.com Server: 216.132.149.47 Address: 216.132.149.47#53 Name: comsiteconstruction.com Address: 216.132.149.141 > server 206.135.249.30 Default server: 206.135.249.30 Address: 206.135.249.30#53 > comsiteconstruction.com Server: 206.135.249.30 Address: 206.135.249.30#53 Name: comsiteconstruction.com Address: 10.0.0.140 <--AH! There's a problem! In other words, unless you're just setting hostnames for internal-only IP's (ie: your 10.X.X.X network) then you need to be using your public IP's (ie: your 216.132.149.0/24) so that the rest of the Internet can reach you. As an aside, I would question the necessity of running 1:1 NAT to your BX server. But that's a decision your IT manager has probably saddled you with. -- Chris Gebhardt VIRTBIZ Internet Services Access, Web Hosting, Colocation, Dedicated www.virtbiz.com | toll-free (866) 4 VIRTBIZ _______________________________________________ Blueonyx mailing list [email protected] http://www.blueonyx.it/mailman/listinfo/blueonyx
