My internal network's web server is configured as follows:
Static IP = 192.168.0.10
Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0
DNS = 192.168.0.1
Default Gateway = 192.168.0.1
My STN Box is configured as follows:
Static IP = 192.168.0.1
Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0
In the section in the administration web server, under the pre-defined
settings:
Port = 80 HTTP
IP = 192.168.0.10
I have 192.168.0.10 entered as an entry in the STN DNS server.
My ISP connection is Dial-up and uses DHCP.
A port scan of my STN Box from the internet finds port 80 and the dns
port open.
The address I am trying to connect to from the internet to access my web
server, is the DHCP IP of my STN Box that was given by my ISP.
Any help on this matter would be much appreciated.
Thank You
