I'm confused as to why your .net and .com addresses resolve to different ip addresses. Do you want the outside world to see the .com address? As long as your 'server' computer keeps the same address, the port forwarding should work fine as long as your provider doesn't block port 80. A big problem could be if your router won't allow you to 'visit' your own server from inside your network. I have the same problem with my newest netgear router. I had to set the hosts file like you above. If you have more than one computer in your network, you need to create the same entries in their hosts files if you intend on viewing your website from them as well. If this is the case then more than likely you need to have your router set as the DHCP server (the router assigns addresses) and then in the LAN IP setup you tell it to assign the same address (you enter the address) to the same computer every time. * -- Norman Registered Linux user #461062 -Have you been to www.apache.org yet?- --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
