Hi All,
I am encountering a very simple (by the looks of it) problem with Apache22.
To become familiarized with the configuration of the server I started off with a normal ports install, default config settings.
In the httpd.conf the only thing I toyed with was the Listen directive.
I set mines to:
The server itself is assigned with the internal IP adress of 192.168.0.50.
My objective is to see the "It Works!" message from the preinstalled index.html file from another computer within the same network (by going to http://192.168.0.50). Which looks allright.
The next step is to see the "It Works!" message by entering the external IP of my router.
To accomplish this, I forwarded port 80 to 192.168.0.50 on my router. But here comes the problem which I cannot seem to solve, or to make up a clever Google query for....
When I access my server by using http://192.168.0.50 "It Works!". When I access my server by using http://[external_ip] "It Doens't Work!".
I'm pretty sure I must be overlooking something... Anyone out there who could give me the final push so I can move on with testing?
