Sorry about that. My mail program picked up on your email address 
instead of the Debian Users list.


Won't happen again...

Hi Mihira and all,

I was very intrigued when I saw your message. I am in the process of

am at a loss.


This is my situation. I set up a sub-domain named antifoo with a domain 
name of chickenlips.com


FreeDNS is pointing my dsl conncection to my ip address of 
43.129.16.255, which infact is my router. The server I want to set up on 
the net is behind my router at 192.168.0.102 and I want the server to be 
able to be accessed by the antifoo.chickenlips.com address.


Does anyone know what I can do to get this to work? I have a D-Link 
DI-624 4port/wireless router and I know I will have to do something 
there and then set up my debian server somehow.


I appologize for being such a newbie but I am somewhat new at the 
Network configuration stuff. But I really like this list as everyone has 
been so helpful to everyone. Have never seen anyone get pounded by users 
here. But hopefully I won't be the first. :)


Thanks in advance...

Do a Google search on DMZ or firewall demilitarized zone.

You can use a spare computer as a firewall/router; a software package
called SmoothWall (www.smoothwall.org) is about the most simple way
to do this; to install and configure SmoothWall takes about fifteen
minutes.  (In my experience, SmoothWall is easier to configure than is
a firmware firewall/router.)

SmoothWall has provision for three network interfaces: red for the
ADSL or cable modem, green for the LAN, and purple for servers
(this is the DMZ).

SmoothWall also has provision to automatically notify the dynamic DNS
provider whenever the IP address of the firewall/router changes.

 I have just registered a domain name. The registrar provides DNS

 approval, because I am in China, and the government want to

If you will be to use dynamic IP, I recommend DNSexit (www.dnsexit.com). Its
TTL is adjusted low, so it has a faster propagation, about ten minutes only,
I guess.

what you need to do is log on to the webconfig running off your
router for linksys the address is 192.168.1.1 and it has a default
password as well.  google or look at your owners manual for what yours
is on the dlink, im only familiar with linksys/cisco.

once you are on the webconfig, search for the area that says something
like port forwarding or gaming, something like that.  This is where you
want to set up port forwarding, basically telling the router if it
receives any request for port 80 send it to 192.168.0.102 your
webserver  there should be clear instructions on how to set it up
exactly in your manual or on the dlink website.  should  be something
like it will ask you for beginning port and ending port, (put in 80 for
both) then it will ask for what ip address you want to forward, put in
the webserver internal network ip.  then itll probably ask if you want
to forward udp and tcp,  do tcp, then probbly a checkmark to turn it on
or off.  thats pretty much it, save and test it, should be accessible
from the net if your isp doesnt block incoming port requests, which is
becoming all more common these days.
