Open port view from outside

[mirza76]

Hi all,

How can i access webpage from WAN?

I have two computers which is desktop and other is server (Fedora 10). Fedora webroot is /var/www/html/. company is page for view.

IP Desktop - 192.168.0.174
IP Fedora (server) - 192.168.0.2

So i can access from desktop by type in url http://192.168.0.2/company. I can view succesfully this page via LAN.

I'm using wireless router DI524 and already setting DynDNS.org, so i can access my router from WAN (if local http://192.168.0.1) by type in XXXX.homeftp.org

Other setting on DI524:
192.168.0.2 both UDP/TCP port 21 (ftp)
192.168.0.2 both UDP/TCP port 23 (telnet)
192.168.0.2 both UDP/TCP port 22 (ssh)

all this setting it's working by type in from command prompt telnet XXXX.homeftp.org, ftp XXXX.homeftp.org and putty for ssh.

1. What i need to do in my router?
2. What i need to configure on my server fedora? httpd.conf?
*note httpd.conf just add in Listen 8080 but it not working

i want it work on http://xxxxx.homeftp.org:8080/comapny

Anyone can help me?

You need to allow port 8080 on your router to forward to 192.168.0.2

but you will need to turn off remote management from your router (not a good idea anyway)

How about i open another port 8081?

In my router DI-524 (this is configuration in my router)

Virtual Server
Virtual Server is used to allow Internet users access to LAN services.

choose Enable option
Name = Fedora Web
Private IP = 192.168.0.2
Protocol type = Both
Private Port = 8081
Public Port = 8081
Schedule = Always

It can be done only in my router not touch on Fedora 10 configuration?

[johno12345]

yes if you open port 8081 and forward it to 8080 on your 192.168.0.2 host

set public port to 8081 and private port to 8080

then access from outside with http://xxx.homeftp.org:8081

this should work... doesn't matter what you do on your fedora 10 box if you haven't created a route in on your firewall.

2.) Setup port forwarding in router:

This step is probably the most important. Basically, it will route all incoming web server requests to the correct computer by forwarding port 80 using both TCP and UDP protocols to the IP address of your computer (web server). I’m not going to explicitly list all instructions in this tutorial, but I will lead you to a great guide for the popular routers:

http://www.portforward.com/english/r...outerindex.htm

*If you choose this link, you’ll have to first select your router model number from the list, and then choose “HTTP” from the list that follows.

3.) Setup firewall to allow HTTP (Port 80) traffic:

In Fedora 8 Linux, this port is blocked by default and needs to be opened. Goto System -> Administration -> Firewall. You will be asked for you password to run as a privileged user (root). Once you’re here, scroll down and find the HTTP entry and put a check mark next to it to allow HTTP traffic through (as show below).



4.) Test to see if port forwarding has worked:

This is an important step as well. Goto the “CanYouSeeMe” port checker by going to http://www.canyouseeme.org and in the “What Port” box, type in “80″, and click “Check”. You should see a message that states
Quote:
“Success: I can see your service on <your ip address> on port (80)”.
If you don’t, go back and check that 1.) you have the HTTP service enabled and running in the background by going to System -> Administration -> Services and look for “httpd”, 2.) the correct ports are forwarded to the correct IP address of your computer and they are enabled, and finally, 3.) make sure your firewall has allowed HTTP traffic.

5.) Test the server (Apache) by visiting your external IP address:

Goto www.whatismyip.org and get your IP address. Then copy/paste it into your browser (Firefox) and see if you get the default Apache test page. If you see something similar to the following screenshot, then you’ve gotten your web server setup properly!

Might want to run Shield's Up at www.grc.com, that would tell you the ports open from outside.

Can run:

host kiriyamablevins.dyndns.org

That gets my current public IP address from dyndns.org.
Then I run firefox on:
http://www.dslreports.com/whois
That gives me the public IP address, not from dyndns.org.
If both public IP address don't match, then you need to use ddclient service cause you maybe using dynamic IP, not static IP.
Search the forum for ddclient. I use that with dyndns.org.

Have you had any joy?

can you see the page internally? ie. on other PC's inside your network?
