Hi all,
I am trying to access my home desktop from work but the firewall blocks residential IP addresses. I'm looking to use my hosted Fedora server to port forward to my home IP (which is dynamic so I use no-ip).
Also, I've used up all the IPs on my server, so can't dedicate an IP to it. I'd like to be able to use a hostname instead.
So, in short what I'd like to be able to do is access 'https://my.domain.com' (i.e. port 443) from work, and that redirects to 'mydynamicip.no-ip.org:5800'.
I've been looking at iptables, but don't see how to get it working in this way.
Any ideas?
James
