Re: mapping tomcat to ip address behind router
Hi, Try using a subdomain DNS eg myservice.mydomain.com that will resolve internally to http://192.168.0.54 (behind router) and externally to http://99.153.32.456(direct internet connection). The DNS Server should do the rest - basically forward all requests from behind the router to the given subdomain. Cheers!

Maybe your router doesn't recognize the IP address you are using.

Re: mapping tomcat to ip address behind router
Hey, I tried taking the address=192... portion out in the example 2 where tomcat is behind a router and it made no difference. In relation to port 80 being blocked, in example 1 above where there is no router, it works fine when tested with the url with the ip address assigned by the ISP, http://99.;, so port 80 is not being blocked. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/mapping-tomcat-to-ip-address-behind-router-tp17809837p17811501.html Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you really are talking about a router (and not a proxy, as Chuck suggests), have you set up your router to forward requests to port 80 to go to your internal IP address (192.168.0.54)? If not, there's no reason to expect your router to automagically forward port 80 traffic to one specific machine on your internal network. - -chris -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkhRrAUACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PDNuwCguS7M60B1pIYsjM/2wTD9fcNm yDoAnjVoQi0pBGqThx4wAKR2wACJjx/m =OI9K -END PGP SIGNATURE- - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Well, whatever the solution is, there's no need to specify the address in server.xml unless you want to specify a single network interface for your server. For the time being, you should leave that out. Have you tried to hit your server from outside your network, or only from inside? Some crappy routers don't properly route internal traffic back into the internal network when you use the outside IP address (though it is unlikely to be affecting you, here). Just grasping at straws since your setup seems to be sane, yet the observations are not. :( - -chris -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkhRsYQACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PCI/wCfYStwRI/0Q2hqs5J/Prt2ScSQ 978AoIn8z+22bMVgDvFcWI/kiYZIaaRG =zGnZ -END PGP SIGNATURE- - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
