Apache help

If you're having trouble accessing the site internally, it's likely due to NAT issue.

Your router may have settings for allowing NAT loopback or reflection.

So just looked at that and didn't see anything labeled NAT, loopback or reflection anywhere in the router's settings. Any other ideas?

Whats your router model

May also be called hairpin nat.

Alternatively, setup a local DNS server or run

sudo sed -i '$a\local-ip-of-apache domainnamehere' /etc/hosts

on each computer that you want to access the site on (replacing local-ip-of-apache and domainnamehere)

Hey, router model is a medialink mwn-wapr300n. User man can be found here

I searched for NAT, but didn't find anything.

So the website http://www.medialinkproducts.com/ no longer exists and the domain is for sale so I couldn't get the firmware upgrade...but the DMZ settings were already in the router so setting the server IP in the DMZ settings and enabling it made it work!!!

Thanks again for your help.

Side note:

This allows direct access to your server using your public ip address, setup iptables/fail2ban/etc if you are worried about security

Thanks for for the heads up. So is there a way to not enable the dmz and still see my site internally?
