Re: outsiders cannot brows my site in tomcat
I think the problem is that you have no route for the outside world to get to your router and this is because your providers DNS has no idea that he has to route traffic destined to your internal network to your router. There is a solution there are web sites that will update their DNS entries to point to your server and then once someone can get to your router you can have your router port forward ( if it is capable) to and a machine on your lan If you have a static IP address the first part is not applicable since your ISP will have your router in his DNS table; however since many ISPs will not give out static IP addresses you will have to refresh the services DNS tables every time DHCP gives you a new external address for your router.The DNS provider will give you a domain say www.example.com and your requestors will look you up as such. You will have to search the net for one of these providers. Ok once they can get to your router the router can port forward all requests on lets say port 80 to your internal webserver on port 80 this will reply back to the router who will reply back to the requestor. external IP internalIplocal Lan IP ( for example) 207.84.2.234 192.168.1.1192.168.1.5 request:80 [ router ] =[ webserver] reply -- this should get you started Carl On Thu, 2002-06-20 at 13:01, Yu Ye Zhou wrote: From:Carl [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 06/20/2002 11:01 AM MST I have three computers connected to each other as LAN.

RE: outsiders cannot brows my site in tomcat
You need to use a router and have it forward the requests on port :8080 to the computer running tomcat. Otherwise, you can use your router to put the computer with Tomcat into the DMZ if you're not worried about security. -Original Message- From: Yu Ye Zhou [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, June 20, 2002 1:02 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: outsiders cannot brows my site in tomcat I have three computers connected to each other as LAN.

Re: outsiders cannot brows my site in tomcat
Do you have a static IP address? =) Most DSL services give you 'communal' IP addresses. You don't have a 'unique' one for each of your machines - and they change every time you connect. My guess is that this is most likely your problem. To rectify it, check on getting your own IP address/pool through your DSL provider. Another thing too - if you want to be able to access your computer by name - you'll need a domain if you don't have one. Additionally, you will need to ensure that you have the domain set up to point to the correct IP Address. Also, I'm not entirely sure how your LAN is configured - but if all of your machines are sharing one IP Address you'll need to check into configuring your router to direct all http/https traffic to the specific machine that has Tomcat installed on it. *looks around* Did I miss anything guys? I hope that answers your question.

Re: outsiders cannot brows my site in tomcat
If he's stuck with a dynamic IP he could look into using a Dynamic DNS client to register his hostname. I've had this setup before and it works rather nicely, even for dial-up connections.

Re: outsiders cannot brows my site in tomcat
I've found http://dns2go.deerfield.com. I registered a domain with them for free and also downloaded their software that can point to my current IP address to that domain name. I can brow my computer with that domain name now. I think I should be able to browse it from any other computers, after I readjust my router setting. Thanks for all your helps. Very appreciate.
